Abstract:
With the continuation of the excavations in ancient Plotinopolis during the summer of 1983 another part of the stone platform (krepis) of a building of unknown nature was discovered dating from the Roman period, possibly the 2nd century A.D., when the town was founded by the Emperor Trajan. From trial trenches opened at various points of the ancient town it was shown that on the site of the Roman town there had been an older settlement or town of the 5th- 4th century B.C., which was inhabited by native Thracian people. The Attic pottery and the seal-marked handles of amphoras from Thasos which have been found, prove the connection between the inhabitants of the Thracian interior on the middle plain of the Hebros and the Aegean Greeks, even from classical antiquity. This was the most interesting scientific gain from the excavation of 1983 at Plotinopolis.
