New systematic archaeological research on Plaoshnik

Archaeological researches and conservation and restoration works also continued in a smaller volume between 2003 and 2006. During this period, certain areas were researched to the west of the narthex of the monumental three-nave basilica. The areas under the mosaic floors of the narthex and the baptistery of the same early Christian building were also explored. During this time, the conservation works on the mosaic floors of the baptistery were completed. Protective roof structures were placed above the two baptisteries of the early Christian churches on Plaoshnik.

With the latest systematic archaeological research, which took place from March to December 2007 and during 2008, the implementation of the second phase of the "Plaosnik" project started, i.e. the implementation of the project Renewal of St. Clement's University at Plaosnik started in Ohrid. Within these research activities, which continued and still last, the space of the so-called St. Clementine soil was completely researched. The aim is to determine the remains of the existence of the monastery lodgings. In this case, it would also mean defining of the spatial conditions for the functioning of the so-called Ohrid Literary School, or the Ohrid Literary Academy, or as it is already known as St. Clement's University.
