The archaeological site “\u0160tolna-Pi\u0161tak”, which represents a Neolithic settlement belonging to the Vin\u010da culture, is directly threatened and damaged by the expansion of the Aleksinac landfill from the south side, while from the north side it is threatened by the mining shaft complex, stated the Institute for the Protection of Monuments Ni\u0161, as reported by Ju\u017ene vesti.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Experts from the Institute, in cooperation with the Balkanological Institute SASA and the Archaeological Institute Belgrade, are conducting protective archaeological research at this site and say that several archaeological objects and finds have been identified so far, whose expert and scientific processing is yet to come.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The goal of protective archaeological research is to define the scope of archaeological heritage in the southwestern part of the Vin\u010da settlement, in order to define the possibilities for expanding the municipal landfill, explain the Institute for the Protection of Monuments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

They note that it is one of the largest Vin\u010da settlements in this part of the South Morava valley and that the site is threatened by the landfill, as well as by unauthorized excavation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The performance of unauthorized excavations irrevocably destroys archaeological heritage and permanently erases material evidence of the continuity of life in these areas. Unauthorized archaeological excavations practically achieve what various invaders in our history failed to do, the Institute states.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

They point out that any excavation without a special permit from the competent authority constitutes a criminal offense prosecuted ex officio.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
