Underwater archaeologists found artifacts from the 3rd millennium BC in Sennensky district
A special research group for underwater archaeology of the Institute of History of the National Academy of Sciences of Belarus has begun field research in the Sennensky district. Archaeologists are studying underwater cultural layers at the Late Neolithic peat settlement Krivina-3, writes BelTA.
The expedition includes employees from the departments of archaeology of primitive society, the Middle Ages, and the Modern Era. Their task is to study the ancient settlement, a significant part of which is now underwater.
Despite the challenging weather conditions, work is proceeding according to plan. Already in the first days of research, archaeologists managed to make several interesting finds. Among them are fragments of ceramic pottery, a bone pendant loop, as well as animal and fish bones.
According to preliminary expert assessment, all discovered artifacts date back to the second half of the 3rd millennium BC. These finds can help scientists better understand the daily life, economy, and material culture of the people who lived on the territory of modern Belarus during the Late Neolithic era.
