Bardhosh
Bardhosh is positioned north of Prishtina, set on the left side of
the road to Podujeva. The Neolithic site of Bardhosh was accidentally
discovered in 2002, on the occasion of opening foundations in order to
build a private house together with accompanying annexes.
The immediate rescue excavations carried out at this location
firmly confirmed remains and ruins of the Neolithic dwellings, houses
with fire places, stone Hawn working tools, vessels and fragments of
ceramic, etc. Furthermore, a quantity of qualitative anthropomorphic
terracotta figurines discovered here, typical for the Vinca Culture but
with the distinctive feature of Kosovar variant of so called ‘Pristina style’
were proved at this distinguished site.
