The team of archaeologists focused their efforts on the site adjacent to the western fortifications of the Belsk settlement. In particular, they explored a section of the Tsarina-Sad community.
During excavations in the Belsky settlement in the Poltava region, archaeologists found a female burial with gold objects and utensils, which is more than two thousand years old, and may belong to the Scythians. On Tuesday, August 15, the director of the historical and cultural reserve Belsk Igor Korost announced on Facebook.
He said that among the artifacts was a collection of gold objects dated to the first half of the sixth century BC (about 2600 years ago).
“Among these items are gold plates, which were probably attached to women’s outfits. Also, a pot was found in the barrow,” he said.
Korost said it was not the only find in the area.
“In July, archaeologists explored the territory of ancient Gelon near Bilsk. Among the finds were pottery, arrows and harps,” the scientist said.
Most of the clay artifacts found include fragments of locally produced pottery, they are decorated with complex patterns. Imported ancient Greek pottery was also found, such as amphoras and a black-lacquered kanthara handle.
“These finds date from the beginning of the fifth century BC to the mid-4th century BC,” the report said.
Further analysis and explanation of these findings will be carried out by scientists, who will then transfer them for storage to the Belsk historical and cultural reserve.
It was previously reported that in Romania, while resting in the forest, amateur archaeologists discovered a pot of treasures.
The 4,000-year-old treasure was found in the Ternopil region
