PLISKA (Yanko Dimitrov – yanko_aim@mail.bg, Stanislav Ivanov) In Trench III a section of the trench of a timber fence was documented. It cut two postholes. Two other postholes were excavated as well. The postholes dated to the 8th – 9th centuries AD. In Trench II a dugout of the end of the 10th – beginning of the 11th centuries AD was explored, 3.30/3.65 m by 3.30/3.50 m in size. A stove constructed of fragmentary bricks was discovered in the dugout. A production kiln of the 10th century AD was explored, 3 m by 2 m in size, constructed of bricks bonded with mortar. Fifteen postholes were discovered around the kiln. They supported a shelter. The explorations of the Large Timber Building of the 8th – 9th centuries AD continued. The building measured 18.40 m by 8.50 m. Three pairs of postholes were discovered. They belonged to a timber passage, 2.20 – 2.80 m wide. The passage was constructed after the destruction of the Large Timber Building.
