Кузнечики

The Kuznechiki settlement stands on a raised oval platform measuring 25 by 60 meters, with two defensive ramparts reaching heights of 0.7 meters.

Archaeological excavations between 1963 and 1965 under A.F. Dubynin and K.A. Smirnov revealed multiple layers from Early Iron Age through medieval Dyakovo culture periods.

The settlement contains remains of residential structures with post holes, floor layers, and household items including bone arrows, fishing needles, and stone grinding tools.

The archaeological site maintains a cultural layer reaching 0.6 meters in the center and extending to 1.2 meters along the edges of the settlement platform.

Researchers discovered long rectangular houses in the northern section that served dual purposes as both residential spaces and defensive structures against potential attacks.
