The object is called Prav Kamen , in translation “an upright stone”. The site itself has a complex structure with a cult character, the first evidence being provided by the dolmen that serves as an entrance. This entrance leads to a large round, stone platform, on the north side of which stands a large stone block. It is oriented to the east and has the shape of a human head. It is visibly charred from a height of 70 cm (28”) from its base, indicating that a tripod was probably used here to light a fire. Sacrifices made in this fashion were popular in antiquity.
Our Mission
At Ancient Origins, we believe that one of the most important fields of knowledge we can pursue as human beings is our beginnings. And while some people may seem content with the story as it stands, our view is that there exists countless mysteries, scientific anomalies and surprising artifacts that have yet to be discovered and explained.
The goal of Ancient Origins is to highlight recent archaeological discoveries, peer-reviewed academic research and evidence, as well as offering alternative viewpoints and explanations of science, archaeology, mythology, religion and history around the globe.
We’re the only Pop Archaeology site combining scientific research with out-of-the-box perspectives.
