At the end of the rescue archaeological survey of a site from the Roman age, registered to the Southwest of the Ostrusha mound near Kazanluk, archaeologists made some important finds, the Bulgarian news agency BTA reports.
The excavations are being conducted by a team from the local museum of history Iskra as part of a municipality project “The world of Thracians” under the operational programme Regions in Growth, 2014-2020. 15 archaeological structures have been registered in the course of the dig, 2 of them farming buildings. They are made of mudbrick or wattle and daub, with stonework foundations. The pottery found on site and the few other finds date the discovery to the 3rd-4th century.
A large jar for storing wheat was found in one of the buildings – such jars were buried in the ground with only their lid-covered mouths remaining on the surface. The jar found at Ostrusha is large and very well preserved which will allow it to be put it on display.
