Слатинско неолитно селище, Archaeological site in Slatina District, Bulgaria
The Slatino Neolithic settlement stands on a terrace along the left bank of Slatinska River, covering an area with cultural layers reaching 4 meters deep.
The settlement emerged at the end of the 7th millennium BCE and continued until the mid-6th millennium BCE, representing one of the largest settlements in the Central Balkans.
Excavations revealed thirty houses with diverse architecture, featuring vertical oak pillars and clay plastering, alongside numerous agricultural tools and ceremonial structures.
The archaeological site maintains regular excavation schedules and offers guided tours through collaboration between the National Archaeological Institute and Museum in Sofia.
Researchers discovered evidence of climate changes affecting settlement patterns, with house rows positioned according to prevailing northwestern winds during later phases.
