Stabatiškės dvarvietė

LTStabatiškės dvarvietę (kaimavietę) 2006 m. aptiko archeologai Eglė Marcinkevičiūtė ir dr. Egidijus Šatavičius, vykdydami archeologinius žvalgymus ir žvalgomuosius tyrimus Ignalinos atominės elektrinės teritorijoje (ATL 2006 metais, V., 2007, p. 458–459). Pagal juos, Stabatiškės viensėdžio vietoje XV a. II pusėje – XVI a. egzistavo sodybvietė, priklausiusi Radvilų valdytam Drūkšių dvarui. 2007 m. buvo nustatyta dvarvietės teritorija (14700 m2), ji įrašyta į Registrą. Kadangi saugoma teritorija pateko į būsimosios radioaktyvių atliekų kapavietės žemės sklypą, ji turėjo būti visiškai ištirta prieš šios kapavietės statybą. Archeologiniai tyrinėjimai buvo numatyti centrinėje dalyje, apie 6000 m2 plote, likusi jos dalis – apie 9000 m2 turėjo būti išžvalgyta. Tyrinėjimai ir žvalgymai prasidėjo 2009 m. rugsėjį ir tęsėsi iki 2010 m. rugsėjo mėnesio [p. 226].

ENDuring 2009–2010 the supposed grounds of the Stabatiškė manor site were investigated and new cultural heritage objects were discovered beside it. 56 test pits and 36 trenches were excavated. A total of 6998 m2 were investigated during the field survey and excavation. The earliest cultural layer dating to the 16th–17th centuries was recorded in the central part of the investigated area and in trench 35 to the NW of it. A cultural layer dating to the 17th – early 20th-century was discovered in almost all of the excavation sites. The foundations of 5 buildings dating to the 18th–19th centuries, the foundation of one building from the late 19th – early 20th century, and traces of other buildings that stood on the grounds were discovered and excavated. Over 100 former pits of various sizes and with various contents as well as 3 wells dating to the 17th–18th centuries were recorded and excavated throughout the area. The burials of horses killed in the First World War and 3 human inhumations were discovered at several locations.During the investigation, several thousand sherds from various vessels: pots, pitchers, plates, bowls, etc. were collected together with tens of almost whole vessels. The bulk of the ceramics date to the 18th–19th centuries. In the trenches excavated closer to the centre of the investigated area as well as in the test pits and trench 35, which were excavated near the former lake, earlier ceramics dating to the 16th–17th centuries and decorated with wavy lines were discovered. The 18th–19th-century stove tile fragments, bricks, and brick fragments should be ascribed to mass-produced materials. Another significant group of finds consists of 20th-century war and post-war finds: bullets, machine gun belts, cartridges, casings, canteens, and clothing items. The list of individual finds includes a fragment of a 17th–19th-century pipe, axes, sickles, 19th-century tools, watches, brass furniture fittings, and military uniform items dating to the wars of the 20th-century. The Stabatiškė manor site is the first and so far the only manor site in Lithuania that has been consistently and completely investigated.
