Abstract

The Locality Kokino in the Republic of Macedonia is of particular inter-
est as archaeological site (Bronze Age megalithic observatory). It is built of
Paleogene volcanic rocks that are the subject of the present petrological study.
For the aims of the study 20 samples have been collected, ten of them being
thoroughly examined. All samples have been studied with chemical analyses,
microscopic examinations and geochronological analyses, and determined as
trachydacites of the shoshonitic series with porphyritic structure and massive
texture. The age has been determined by K-Ar method as Early Oligocene (ca.
30 Ma).
