Abstract

Archaeological research of the historical centre of Tara in 2021 was carried out at several sites. At one of them, we could fully explore the residential complex (hut). We suppose that it was a servant’s hut dated to the first half of the 17th century. This conclusion was based on the analysis of the construction of the object and the material complex found inside. Currently, this is the second dwelling of that time that has been fully explored during the excavations of the town. Both items were located on the edge of the coastline. The items found inside the dwelling studied this year are a closed complex. This is due to the fact that the hut site was not built up in subsequent periods. This allows for further study of the town’s cultural layers of the 17th century based on the already received collection. We have noted the items related to firearms, their care and supplies— parts of a silicon lock, a file, chopped lead and unrolled bullets. The weapon includes a fragment of a saber blade and a set ofarrowheads. A number of finds indicate that the owner of the house was a literate person and carried out special assignments from the town’s administration, such as a penknife, a bone case for transporting letters and tongs for removing carbon from candles. Numerous imported items were found: beads, fragments of glassware, jewelry. The research of this complex allowed us to significantly expand our knowledge about the life of the serving population in Tara, about their living conditions and service in the first half of the 17th century.
