Also, this structure is in two parts. The first part is a structure about three meters long, which was used as a crypt grave It is newer.

He continued: The second truncated structure is completely different from the first truncated structure, the entrance of this structure is slightly higher than the first structure, which was closed with local wood, which has rotted over time due to high humidity, and the entrance of the truncated structure has been opened, which is very rich. It is important that the inside of this structure is completely covered with lime and Russian soil, and it needs more investigations to be able to make a definite opinion.

The Director General of Cultural Heritage, Tourism and Handicrafts of Gilan Province considered the use of the structure and its exact age to be dependent on archaeological excavations and clarified: it was decided to put the archaeological excavation program of the desired place on the agenda by obtaining a permit from the Cultural Heritage Research Institute.
