Comment

During excavations for the foundations of the new Community building, the workers found a copper barrel. The barrel was buried under a thin layer of ash behind a wall (the wall was 1,5 m below ground). The barrel was full of silver money, silver and gold jewellery, silver pots, and silver tin icons. Roman auxiliary fort was located nearby.
