LT2020 m. atlikti detalieji tyrimai Vilūnų neįtvirtintoje gyvenvietėje (Kaišiadorių r., Kruonio sen.). Siekta ištirti gyvenvietės archeologinį sluoksnį, archeologines struktūras tose LLDJ statybvietės vietose, kur joms grėsė sunaikinimas. Vilūnų neįtvirtintos gyvenvietės detaliųjų tyrimų metu ištirtas bendras 417 m2 dydžio plotas (plotai 1–11 ir šurfai 1–22 tarp piketų 683+44 ir 687+50). Vykdyti žvalgymai mechanizuotai nuimant paviršinį sluoksnį plote 12 (128 m ilgio trasos ruože tarp piketų 683+60 iki 684+87) ir ištirti objektai 27(A–H)–30, taip pat ankstesnių žvalgymų metu aptiktos įgilintos struktūros – objektai 3–6, 8, 10–11, 13–15, 19–27. Remiantis 2020 m. detaliųjų tyrimų rezultatais, nustatyta, kad tirtoje teritorijoje yra buvusios kaimavietės ir neįtvirtintos gyvenvietės liekanų (kultūrinio sluoksnio fragmentų ir įgilintų objektų).

ENIn 2020, an excavation was conducted at Vilūnai Unenclosed Settlement, in order to excavate the settlement’s archaeological layer and structures at those GIPL construction site locations where their destruction is threatened. A total of 417 m² (areas 1–11 and test pits 1–22) was excavated. During the investigation, the mechanical removal of the surface layer in area 12 (a 128 m long utility trench) was monitored and objects 27(A–H)–30 were excavated as well as sunken structures discovered during earlier field surveys. The archaeological layer of the former village site and sunken objects: a log-lined well, hearths, two posthole concentrations, and pits with no determined purpose were discovered in the NE part of the investigated territory and excavated. The archaeological layer and the objects yielded sherds of thrown and partly thrown household pottery, flint flakes, and animal bones. Based on the performed 14C tests, the village site dates to the late 13th – early 17th centuries. The unenclosed settlement’s archaeological layer, which had survived in ditches and its sunken objects: hearths and pits with no determined purpose, was discovered in the SW part of the investigated territory and excavated. These contained sherds of hand built pottery (brushed pottery predominating), flint flakes, iron and stone finds, and animal bones. Based on the performed 14C tests, the unenclosed settlement dates to the 1st century BC – 3rd century AD.
