An old box on which somebody drew a smiley

An Rider Amulet

Small glass pearls on a string

A small paperback and a round bone object. Probably a weaving weight

Since we have Code Red because of the heat : No digging. Instead going through old boxes from the 60’s and archiving them. Loads of amazing artefacts. The museum on site is quite exited to show them #първопрестолната #onsitepliska #thembones #whatwillwefind #drpeterparvanov #pliskamuseum
