KARDZHALI-SABA
Prof. Nikolay Ovcharov, head of excavations at Perperikon, presented the latest discoveries to journalists on Tuesday.

These are a complex of dwellings from the 13th-14th centuries in the Southern Quarter, dug deep into the ground, for which the local population used the ruins of the surrounding ancient temples.

Such houses, dug half into the ground, survived until the early 20th century, mainly in northern Bulgaria, and had thatched roofs.

Prof. Ovcharov added that the dwellings found at Perperikon were one-roomed, occasionally with two rooms, with an area of between 15 and 22 square meters and accommodated the whole family.
