During the last two weeks of the excavation, a large number of various small finds have been unearthed by the archaeologists and students on the site, which are being processed in the lab. Until now, more than six hundred finds have been processed – all of them drawn, measured and recorded into our database, and some of them restored as well. Among them are silver and bronze coins, fine imported pottery, worked bone objects (e. g. hairpins, needles), glass beads, various iron and bronze objects (e. g. brooches, belt fittings) and worked stone fragments (e. g. statue fragments). All of these finds are of utmost importance, since they carry some extra information and through their analysis in the lab, they help us to improve our knowledge about the functionality, chronology and the general land use of our site and its vicinity in the Roman period.
