A wooden time tunnel for the visitor reception center and the basic construction works of the museum have been completed, and models representing humans, animals, tools, and equipment of the 8,000-year-old village life have been placed in the open-air museum.
Kırklareli Culture and Tourism Director Veli Şen told Anadolu Agency that the village life of the year 6,000 B.C. will be presented to the future generations through the project,
The remnants of the oldest farming communities of the region give insights into the lifestyles of ancient village communities, he said.
"It is fair to say that Asagipinar is humanity's common heritage, village settlement, and the first example of a village community," Şen continued. "We know that the village settlement communities that came from Anatolia lived here for a while, and then moved to Europe and other regions."
Şen said: "The visitors coming here will be informed about the human lifestyle of the era."
The project is expected to be completed by the end of 2023.
