In the Bugiulești area in 1962, the paleoanthropologist Constantin S. Nicolăescu-Plopșor uncovered several humanoid fossilised bone fragments, including a skull, believed to belong to a variety of Homo habilis (dubbed Homo olteniensis or Australoanthropus olteniensis) dating back roughly two million years, which would make them the oldest hominid fossils in Europe,[2] although the discovery and authenticity has been questioned.[3] Some of the artefacts are currently exhibited in the Museum of Oltenia in Craiova, although the more "controversial" findings are located in the Vasile Pârvan Institute of Archaeology.
