Neofit Bozvelievo: Ritual stone nichesRitual stone niches

In Bulgarian: Ритуални скални ниши

Category: Archaeological site

Location: Neofit Bozvelievo

The Ritual complex of stone niches near village Neofit Bozvelievo are carved in a limestone rock, right of the road between the villages of Neofit Bozvelievo and Lale. There are 11 niches arranged on 2 levels. Two of them (called "acoustic niches") have a very interesting acoustic feature - when a sound is produced they return the echo back in a special way to the person in front of  them.

On the hill above the rocks of niches are found traces of a sanctuary, which unfortunately was destroyed in the construction of water supply to the village. In the region were found many ceramic artifacts from the Antiquity.
