Summary (English)
ARCHAEOLOGICAL EXPLORATIONS NEAR THE VILLAGE OF GOLEMO BUCHINO (Ilian Boyanov – ilianboyanov@nbu.bg) Building F in Sector III measured 19.20 m by 7 m. The building was divided in two by an interior wall. The construction was of dry free stone masonry. Fragments of burned wattle-and-daub testified to the existence of ramshackle walls. A hearth, 2.10 m by 2.70 m in size, surrounded by mud bricks, and a dolium dug into the floor were explored in the southern part of the building. The finds include pottery, loom weights, waste pottery production, iron chisels, axes, small knives, a bell, nails and rings. The building dates to the 4th – 6th centuries AD. Two shelters with preserved length of 12.80 m and 14.50 m were explored to the south of buildings C and D. Late Antique sherds were found in their debris. Eight oval kilns for pottery and building ceramics, dug into the ground, were explored to the southwest of Building F and to the south of Building E. Fragments of Late Antique pottery (mostly jugs and pots), building ceramics and fragmentary waste pottery production were found among their debris.
