Yumurtatepe Tumulus, Archaeological mound in Yenimahalle, Turkey.
The Yumurtatepe Tumulus stands as an elevated earthen structure containing burial chambers and archaeological remains from ancient civilizations in Ankara Province.
Archaeological excavations conducted in 1986 and 1987 by the Ankara Museum of Anatolian Civilizations revealed the site dates back to the Early Bronze Age.
The tumulus represents burial practices of ancient civilizations, containing a circular structure measuring 0.70 meters in height located half a meter below the surface.
