Historical information about the monument: One of the signs of the ancient stone memory of the southern region of Azerbaijan is the cave of the same name in the village of Buzeyir, Lerik region, which is considered an archeological monument of national importance.

The Paleolithic archeological expedition of the Institute of Archeology and Ethnography of ANAS conducted archeological excavations in a large area in Buzeyir cave in July-August 1990. As a result, six layers of different periods were recorded in the sediments of the camp. Archaeological excavations in the first and second layers have revealed the remains of clay crockery belonging to the Middle Ages, Bronze and Eneolithic periods. Bone remains and stone products from layer III, stone products and hunted animal bones from layers IV, V and VI were found and examined. Archaeological excavations revealed a total of 61 stone products in the cave. Among the finds were disc-shaped nuclei, levallua sharp tools, flat simple shrapnels, convex simple shrapnels, broken shrapnels and plaques.

The tools found in the Buzeyir cave give an idea of the employment of primitive people living in the Lerik region. Among the findings of the cave was found a second processing of the product. Material samples found in the Buzeyir cave date back to the Mustye period of the Paleolithic.
