The analysis of agricultural materials confirms the high level of agriculture. The landscape around the settlement did not have abrupt features which favored agriculture. Black earths typical for this area required efforts for their treatment. Therefore, finding of a tool for tillage was well anticipated. A significant percentage of Triticum aestivum s. l. suggests that more demanding but also more high-yielding crops were cultivated. Presence of weeds among the imprints of grains testifies to protracted use of earths.
