According to the stratography observed there two settlement s levels related to the second stage of fortifications of the castle and one settlement's level related to the first stage of castle's fortification were discovered. An unfortified settlement was registered under the heaped levers of the dike and cultural stratifications of the castle. According to the earthenware material the discovered settlement s levels dated back to the second half of the lZ^ century and to the 13*^ century.
