Description

Archaeological study at the site of the hoards finds a whole series of perspectives. In this regard, this method of field research is actively used by European archaeologists, but the situation in Belarus is absolutely different. Trying to solve the problem, the National Historical Museum of the Republic of Belarus conducted several expeditions to the places where the hoards from museum collection were found. This was useful for understanding the hiding context of these hoards, but also completed the collection with coins that weren't found by the finder.
