One of ancient gravestones on Nargiztapa hill

Nargiztapa (Template:Lang-az) – is a locality in Mil plain, located in Khojavend Rayon of Azerbaijan, 5 km to the east from Martuni and to the south from the Khanashenchay River’s bed,[1][2] where archeological objects – remains of a settlement of the Bronze Age epoch – were found out.[1]

Judging by findings of ceramics, cultural deposits of Nargiztapa locality are identical with upper layers of Uzarliktapa, a settlement of Middle Bronze Age epoch, in eastern outskirts of Agdam Rayon.[1]

    Judging by the ceramics, the upper layers of Uzerlik-Tepe are contemporary with the cultural deposits in the thus far uninvestigated settlements in the Mil steppe (Geoy-Tepe, Rasul-Tepe, Nargiz-Tepe, Khan-Tepe [lessen 1965a:18]) and the basins of the Guru and Kendalan rivers (Aliyev and Ismailov 1969:48).
