Thracian Sanctuary – Chuchul Summit

This Thracian sanctuary is situated in the highest part of the Chuchul summit (1379 m), in the region of today’s Troyan passage. The Chuchul summit is a crossroad of two paths – one of them leading to the Ad radices station (Kamen most region), and the second one leading to the Troyan monastery. The sanctuary is considered a place of religious cult. During its research, fragments of badly baked ceramic vessels have been discovered. Obviously, the vessels have been prepared for ritual laying. The ceramic material, coins and iron items, which were found, could be dated back to the IV century BC. Two silver antonians form III century AC, as well as a Turkish silver coin from the Late Middle Ages have also been discovered.
