The archaeological exhibition “Cultural Archaeological Heritage of Peja Region” was opened in 2014 on the occasion of marking ‘International Museum Day’ and presents the archaeological heritage of the Peja Region. The artefacts presented in this exhibition are findings of archaeological excavations carried out during the years 1979-1999, supported by the Provincial Institute for the Protection of Monuments of Kosovo and the Republican Institute of Belgrade, in several localities, such as: in the ancient city of Peja-Gradina, Lubozhdë of Istog, Banja of Peja, Vrellë, Istog, Nakëll, etc. Many of these artefacts are also random finds of citizens, mainly on their properties, as with the voting altar, found recently by chance in the village of Gramaqel. These archaeological findings testify to the ancient history of Peja, which archaeological sources show was the second most crucial locality in the territory of Kosovo, at the level of “Municipum” (city), after Ulpiana. Peja, as a city, is mentioned for the first time in the work “Gheographia” of Ptolemy (87-150) with the name ‘Siparantum’, while Procopius (565), the Byzantine historian, describes the locality with the term ‘Pentza’, which later takes the form ‘Pek-Pekia-Peja’. In antiquity, Peja was known as ‘Gradina’, the ruins of which still exist today near the former Factory of Industrial Batteries. Artefacts such as stela, cypress and votive altars discovered in this locality are exhibited in the Museum of Peja. The collection of archaeological relics of the Museum of Peja also includes stone tools, bronze coins, ceramic pieces, oil lamps, etc., which belong to different periods, starting from the prehistoric period, Illyrian-Dardanian, Byzantine, Slavic and Ottoman. STELA AND CYPUS The stela presented in the Museum of Peja is a tombstone broken in two, found in the ruins of the ancient city of Peja-Gradina, near the former Factory of Industrial Batteries in 1978. According to archaeologists, the stela is the stone of a family cemetery, where are carved three portraits, a man in the middle and two women on the side, which was erected by Valens Sita for himself, his wife, Dede Iuncte and daughter Ania Dasi. It is decorated on the side with the motif of two shoots of a grapevine and heartburn leaves, which emerge and grow from the amphora at the bottom of the stela, next to which there is also a fallen vessel. It is made of white marble, measuring 195 x 65 x 25cm, and consists of a pediment, niches and inscription fields. In terms of shape and decoration, it is a typical Dardanian stele of the 15th century. II-III of e.s.
