The mountain is a rare geological geomorphological paleontological object. It gained special recognition after the discovery of a cave site belonging to an ancient human in it. The site has been dated back to the Paleolithic era. In the cave, stone tools and animal bones have been preserved, which help us understand the natural environment and activities of early humans. A total of 520 stone objects were found in a loose layer of the cave. The hunting trophies include bone remains of 17 different species of animals and 12 species of birds. The bones of an antelope with horns are particularly interesting, as this is now a typical representative of savannas on the African continent.
