An important Neolithic and Copper Age site located 30 km inland from the Black Sea in northeast Bulgaria and comprising a tell settlement with adjoining cemetery. The tell, dated pre-4000 to 3600 be, has 16 occupation layers with many complete house-plans. All categories of find, even metal and especially ornaments, are more common on the tell than in the cemetery. In the small Copper Age cemetery of 30 graves, contracted inhumation is the norm, with occasional cenotaph graves. The subsistence is based on mixed farming, specializing in cattle husbandry and the cultivation of einkom and emmer wheat.
