Velushka Tumba, Neolithic archaeological site near Velušina, North Macedonia.
Archaeological excavations at Velushka Tumba revealed a five-meter-high artificial mound with an elongated base stretching 250 meters at the foot of Baba Mountain.
The settlement existed from early Neolithic until the end of Middle Neolithic period, with excavations between 1971 and 1984 uncovering four distinct phases of urban development.
The excavation findings demonstrate specific pottery techniques and cult objects that define a distinct Neolithic cultural group in the Pelagonia region.
Visitors can examine the archaeological discoveries from Velushka Tumba at the Museum in Bitola, located 400 meters north of Porodin village.
The four-meter cultural layer contains preserved remains of burned structures that provide direct evidence of multiple settlement reconstructions during the Neolithic period.
