The Archaeological Site of Dresnik (Albanian: Lokaliteti arkeologjik i Dresnikut) is a archaeological site in the village of Dresnik, Klina, Kosovo. It is considered by to be one of the most important archaeological sites not only in Kosovo, but also in the region.[1] A number of discoveries have confirmed the presence of relics, buildings and rare mosaics on the site, indicating the existence of civilization in Dresnik during the Roman Period.[2] The find by the Kosovo Archeological Institute is reportedly unique in Kosovo, as the floor of every room of the building is covered by colourful mosaics.[3]
