PRESLAV (Zhivko Aladzhov, Yavor Vasilev – ivor@mail.bg) An area of 30 sq. m was explored, located to the east of the southern part of the building consisting of parallel rooms arranged in a line, excavated in 2010 – 2011. Piles of roughly-cut stones, fragmentary bricks and roof-tiles were discovered, most probably remains from workshops. Iron nails, fragments from glass bracelets and copper plates were found. A stratum of the end of the 12th – 13th centuries was discovered at 0.90 – 1 m in depth. A layer of mortar was documented at 1 – 1.10 m in depth related to the construction of the building of the 9th – 10th centuries that was explored to the west. Five places for stirring the mortar were discovered. Part of the drain was explored. It was constructed over the debris of the building after it was demolished and later, the drain was transformed into a water-conduit with terracotta pipes. The kerbs in a section of the street and several stone slabs from its pavement were discovered. The street partly destroyed the water-conduit. The finds from the excavations included a bronze cross-encolpion of the 10th century, Byzantine anonymous copper coins of the 10th – 11th centuries, a lead seal of a Byzantine administrator with a high rank, two bone dice, iron arrowheads and appliqués.
