For over three millennia, Danilavas piliakalnis, a hillock near Ilgo lake in Lithuania, has stood as an unexplored archaeological site. Situated between Sužionys and Danilava, it is situated to the right (towards Danilava) and only crosses Danilava before Ilgo lake. The hillock is oval in shape, composed of a right-to-left and a left-to-right ridge, with a size of 38x31 meters and an elevation of up to 1.5 meters. In 2006, the lower part of the right-to-left side of the hill was opened to the public with the installation of a 3-meter-wide terrace, which reveals the entire hillock from all sides. Sitting on a protected territory covering 2.85 hectares, the hillock is likely to yield more secrets in the future.
