The experts were lucky to find the remains of towers, walls and even the city gates on the top and slopes of a hill, and several of the city squares and streets under the ground. The area of the city, according to scientists, was about 400 thousand square meters.

Researchers also believe that the region was abandoned by residents after it was conquered by the Romans.

According to Swedish scientists, this discovery could change the understanding of the local history, because this is the first serious archaeological research conducted in the area.
