The necropolis near the village of Trebenishte, 14 km away from Ohrid, was accidentally discovered by Bulgarian troops during road construction at the end of World War I in the spring of 1918.
They found warriors buried in the graves with their equipment, gold insignia, silver and bronze artifacts, ornaments, etc. The objects show the necropolis dates back to the second half of the 6th and 5th centuries BC.
