The Saulītēni ancient site, also called the Pilspurvs Hill, rises about 1.5 m above the surrounding meadows and fields. It is to be considered a fortified ancient site because previously there have been more marked fortifications which were ploughed away and levelled off over time. The elevation amidst meadows is outlined by some bushes and two rather big rowan-trees.
Narrative
Various versions have been expressed about the Saulītēni ancient site – both about it as a hillfort as well as an ancient cult site. Its role is still to be found out in the future. From the Pilspurvs Hill, on the other side of the fields, towards NW-W, an elevation with Dārznieki ancient burial site can be seen.
