Kuntsevo settlement, Archaeological hillfort in Kuntsevo District, Russia

The settlement occupies a promontory flanked by two ravines on the right bank of the Moscow River, featuring earthen ramparts and ditches.

Archaeological excavations reveal layers dating from the 6th century BCE to the 8th century CE, with evidence of Dyakovo culture settlements.

From the 11th to 13th centuries, the Vyatichi people inhabited this fortified settlement, practicing agriculture and animal husbandry.

The archaeological site is located at coordinates 55.7425 latitude and 37.4395 longitude, within the current boundaries of Moscow.

Local folklore names this location 'The Cursed Place' due to discoveries of belemnites and arrowheads interpreted as supernatural artifacts.
