What is this? Is it an independent or another nation's town? There is no hover

I have no idea what this is - it has the borders of an independent but the hover says very little and it isn't clickable.

Click on the center tile itself. UI strikes again.

And yes, it’s an independent (most likely already a city state)

You need to click on the tile itself, not the banner. It's independent power.

With BEAUTIFUL tombs! Should be a wonder in a Civ game one day!

That is a non-hostile Independent Power. If it was hostile, the gold around the edge would be red. If it was a City State, the black background would have turned white.
