Archaeologists performing excavations in the village of Stobreč along Croatia’s Adriatic Sea coast unearthed ruins from a settlement that was first occupied approximately 3,500 years ago, and remained so for thousands of years after that. The Greek version of his village was known as Epetium in the ancient past, and while excavations were first launched there more than five decades ago this is the first evidence uncovered to show the settlement was founded so long ago, during the Middle Bronze Age. During these extensive excavations, which were carried out in anticipation of an upcoming construction project, a team of archaeologists led by Dr. Marina Ugarković from Croatia’s Institute of Archaeology in Zagreb explored multiple layers at the site of the ancient settlement. This was done in part to see just how long ago Epetium/ Stobreč might have been settled, and the lowest layer to produce signs of human occupation suggest its origins date back to around 1500 BC. This is much earlier than previously believed, which is why the latest discoveries are considered so significant by the Croatian archaeological community.
