Židovar

Židovar is an archaeological site in Orešac that sits on an irregular plateau overlooking the Caras River valley. The terrain contains layers of settlement from multiple time periods, with artifacts spread across a modest area.

The plateau was first recorded on a map made for Prince Eugene of Savoy in the early 18th century, marked as ancient ruins. Later investigation confirmed the site hosted successive waves of habitation across many centuries.

The location has long been recognized for its traces of early settlement and human occupation. Objects discovered here offer glimpses into how inhabitants lived and worked in this region.

The site is sometimes open to visitors during the digging season, especially when active research is underway. It is worth checking current conditions before visiting, as access can vary depending on ongoing archaeological work.

The plateau's location at the eastern edge of Deliblato Sands provided early inhabitants with natural defensive advantages. This geographic position made it a strategically valuable place for settlement and protection.
