It is located at a distance of about 14 km to the north-east of Sibi town close to Luni village. The site is badly disturbed owing to climatic wears and human vandalism. Some well baked potshards, red fabrics decorated with wavy lines and certain fragments of big pots relating to the Sassanian period are reported. One silver coin of Indo-Greek period was also reported. A stone sculpture with Kharoshti and Brahmi inscriptions is reported to have discovered from this site by illegal diggers. It is presently in very bad state of preservation. It could be stupa and monastory complex.
