Winter Diggings in Yaroslavl

Winter Diggings in Yaroslavl

Diggings at the construction site in Tereshkova Street in Yaroslavl have been finished. Archaeological excavations under Russian winter conditions are quite rare and extreme.
      
      It is hardly possible to find anything valuable in frozen soil. However, even under such adverse circumstances within a month and a half archaeologists have found remains of buildings, fences and even traces of two fires.
      
      It was considered that people had settled here not before the 14-15th centuries, but now the researchers have found out that not far from the October Bridge life had already been in full swing as far back as the 12th century.
      
      All the relics have been delivered by Moscow archaeologists to the capital; after they have worked with them, all the things will be brought back to Yaroslavl to be kept in a museum.
