The settlement called Kadırga Caves is located within the borders of Batman city center. It is located 2km northwest of Kumluca village, 19.58km southeast of Batman city centre, 15.50km west of Hasankeyf town, 4.10km west of Sukeken village and on the south slope of the southeast of Batı Raman Mountain.

There is an arcosolium and a khamasorion tomb in the rocky area to the north of the Tigris River. Since these tombs are in an interconnected position, the two tombs are connected to each other.

It is understood that the tomb with arcosolium, located in the north, does not have a kline, but was built in the form of a sarcophagus with its barriers that can be placed on the lid. The sarcophagus was shaped in line with the possibilities afforded by the rocky area. In the khamasorion tomb to the south, a large part of the interior is filled with earth.
