- Description:
- The modern village of Amaghleba is located 10 km east of Vani at 80 masl and just south of the main east-west road that runs south of the Phasis River. The Kvintsqali runs through the village and powers a corn mill and small hydroelectric generator. The village is located in the Vani administrative district. Previous investigation in an area called Khumlari revealed pottery and rooftiles of the Hellenistic period; Classical period pottery was also found elsewhere in the area of Amaghleba. In 2010 four points of interest were documented in the area of Amaghleba: a Mediaeval pithos located in situ in the yard of Murman Kakamidze (B011); an 11th-century A.D. church (B012); an area on Terduradzisgora that may be Khumlari, where Hellenistic pottery was collected (B013); and the remains of a Mediaeval fortress located on a hill on the southern outskirts of the modern settlement (B016).

In a cornfield on a level terrace between Terduradzisgora and the Kvintsqali, Hellenistic pottery was collected, including roof tiles and two Colchian amphora toes.

- Description:
- On the southern outskirts of the modern village of Amaghleba is a hill which rises to an elevation of 160 masl and is crowned by a Mediaeval fortress. Visible in the slope of the hill above the modern road is a substantial quantity of pottery and tiles, some at least Hellenistic. The topsoil here is quite shallow, and the bedrock, a type of conglomerate, is visible in outcroppings in numerous places. A square tower, oriented north-south east-west, occupies the highest point of the hill, just northwest of a modern cemetery. The preserved structure has a maximum height of 2.7 m at its southwest corner. The north and best preserved wall is 5.1 m long, and the west wall is 4.14 m long and is pierced by break that is not a doorway. The preserved thickness of the west wall is 0.67-0.7 m. The interior face of the walls is slightly curved. The tower is constructed of crude lime mortared masonry. The tower has a spectacular view over the Kvinsquali toward the Phasis River plain, including the area of Khumlari. Hellenistic pottery was collected from the area surrounding the tower.
