The site also features remains of inhabited caves, settlements and tombs, all of which reflect intensive human use by the region's inhabitants during the Wet Period following the last Ice Age, from the Upper Paleolithic to the Middle Ages. The site covers an area of 537 hectares and is part of the larger Gobustan Conservation Area.
