Tumba Madžari, Neolithic archaeological site in Gazi Baba Municipality, Skopje, North Macedonia.
The settlement features multiple excavated structures containing ancient artifacts, tools, and pottery from the early agricultural communities of the Skopje valley.
Discovered during road construction in the 1960s, the site underwent systematic excavations by the Museum of North Macedonia throughout the late 1970s and 1980s.
The archaeological findings include Pre-Indo-European sculptures representing the Great Mother, indicating religious practices of Neolithic inhabitants between 6000 and 4300 BC.
The location now functions as an open-air museum with reconstructed Neolithic houses, allowing visitors to experience ancient construction techniques and living conditions.
In 2024, archaeologists uncovered an 8000-year-old Great Mother figurine at the site, leading to preparations for UNESCO World Heritage List nomination.
