The accumulation of barrows has been known since the 19th century. They are represented on many maps. There are 12 mounds, located between 35 and 100 m. from each other within the village, along an ancient road which runs down the terrace above the floodplain of the Psel river.
The biggest tumulus, «Tsehel`nya», was investigated in October, 2007. Its maximum height is 0,45 m, and it is 23 m in diameter. The tumulus was damaged by long-term plowing.
In most of the burials there were no skeletal remains. The burial of the Scythian period was looted and destroyed.
During the excavations it became clear that mound above the tumulus was built in two stages from surface soil — grey-black and brownish sandy loam with particles of meadow sod, and marsh ooze. A small primary mound 1 (height is 0,25—0,35 m) is located at its base. The mound was constructed on a terrace hill, probably above the burial 2 of Eneolithic period.
From this mound was preserved the remains of the fondation in the form of a round area 13,0 × 14,5 m in size. Into this mound were sunk the Late Eneolithic burial 7, Early Pit Grave culture burial 4, a few child’s burials of the Bronze Age (Pit Grave culture burial 1, Catacomb Grave culture burial 5, Multiraised Border Pottery (Babyns`ka) culture burial 3). Near the eastern part of the mound was found a foundation trench. It served for mining the soil to raise the tumulus. In 4,5 km north from this mound was located a pit 1 of the Chornolis`ka culture. Here was found a socketed bilobate arrowhead of the Endzha-Zhabotyn type with a spike (to the last quarter of 8th — first quarter of 7th cent. BC). This is similar to the arrowhead from the surface of a tumulus located not far from Dmytrivka village (1,4 km westward from researched mound).
The second stage of the construction of the tumulus occurred during the Scythian period. At the edge of north-east part of the mound 1 was dug a rectangular pit for burial 6. Above it was built the mound 2. Here were found some amphora shreds, fragments of large handmade large pots and cooking pots, and a quartzite flake. The tumulus` height is 1,5 m, its diameter about 21—22 m. The finds of this groups relate to economic activity of the Early Chornolis`ka people at the beginning of the Early Iron Age.
