Saklı village ( Lepena ) is located 40.45 km southeast of Batman city center and 10 km east of Hasankeyf town centre.
The cemetery is located in the hilly area to the northeast of the village. The cemetery area, which was used in the Late Period, is still used today. While the foot and head witnesses of some graves in the cemetery area were made of smooth stone blocks; some are made of irregular stones. The borders of the tombs were determined by closing the tombs with ornamented foot and head witnesses in the same way with smooth blocks. Tombstones made of limestone have been largely destroyed by physical and human conditions. In addition to plant compositions and geometric ornaments, dagger motifs are also seen on the tombstones written in the Arabic alphabet.
