Summary (English)

  • EXPLORATIONS NEAR THE VILLAGE OF POKROVNIK (Iliya Kulov – iliakulov@yahoo.com) In 2019, the monuments explored in 2017 – 2018 were dismantled, moved to a new place, reconstructed and restored due to the construction of a highway: the Roman villa of the 3rd – 5th centuries AD, the baths and the tombs of the 3rd – beginning of the 4th centuries AD, the Early Christian church of the 5th – 6th centuries AD and the pottery kilns of the 4th – 6th centuries AD. Storage rooms of the 4th – 5th centuries AD that accommodated 11 dolia were documented around the family tomb (mausoleum). Dolium No. 12 was discovered to the west of the two tombs. Grave No. 72 was discovered in the necropolis of the Ottoman period (17th – 18th centuries); the grave goods included a silver and a copper finger-ring. The archaeological park was completed.
