Historically important findings were discovered during an excavation in the Yaldili village of Azerbaijan’s Yevlakh region.

Archeologists say that the findings date back to the 2nd century BC and the 2nd century of AD.

The Institute of Archeology and Ethnography of the ANAS told Trend that the findings include big pitcher for burial, jug-type clay, petal-mouthed little jars, bronze bracelet, nacre and clay beads.

All findings were transferred to the History Museum of the Yevlakh region.

Earlier in October 2016, pitcher burials dated to the 1st-2nd century BC were revealed during the excavation in the Semendabad village of Yevlakh region. Crockery of various sizes and shapes, including bowls, jewelry and tools made of bronze, were discovered at the site.
