THE ARCHAEOLOGICAL SITE OF<br />

HERMANOV VINOGRAD (HERMAN’S VINEYARD)<br />

02<br />

It must be pointed out that, so-called, satellite settlements were positioned<br />

south of the tell or, to be precise, the central settlement of the Sopot culture,<br />

which was populated throughout a longer period of the culture. These were<br />

short-lived settlements, whose citizens were most likely attached to the central<br />

settlement. Considering that this was a wetland in the prehistoric time, it<br />

can be assumed that the inhabitants of the Sopot culture migrated from one<br />

dry surface to the next. Short-lived settlements were possibly of workshops.<br />

However, this is impossible to conclude on the basis of a small excavated surface.<br />

It is necessary to continue the excavation, not only in the central settlement<br />

within the moat, but also in a wider area, in order to establish the pattern of<br />

population and the life of the Sopot culture inhabitants.<br />
