Shengavit Settlement, Early Bronze Age settlement in Yerevan, Armenia.
The settlement spans six hectares along the Hrazdan River bank with stone walls reaching four meters in width and multiple stone dwellings.
The archaeological site dates from 3000 BC to 2200 BC, representing the Kura-Araxes period through eight distinct habitation layers.
The excavated artifacts include stone tools, black burnished pottery, grain storage facilities, and evidence of advanced metallurgy production methods.
The archaeological preserve maintains regular visiting hours with an entrance fee and contains collections of discovered items from numerous excavation periods.
Three connected village sites - Moukhannat Tepe, Khorumbulagh, and Tairov - exist outside the main fortification walls of the settlement.
Inception: 3000 BCE
