Врчви
An archaeological site containing early Christian tombs. It is situated north of Čaška, on the left bank of the Topolka River. There are two separate groups of graves at the site. One group comprises three combined graves in the east-west direction, while the other has two graves in the opposite north-south direction. The graves are completely made of stone and mortar in their interior, however they do not have lavish inner workings like the Hereon site. This likely indicates that poorer, middle-class citizens were probably buried here. Findings from the site are kept at the Museum of Macedonia in Skopje
Хереон
Tombs from the Roman era just north of the village, near newer housing on an asphalt path. It consists of seven coffins inside walls with a diameter of 15 m (49 ft). The tombs most likely date from the 5th century and is believed to contain a local ruler due to its relative monumentality.
