During archaeological excavations on Mount Rudnik in 2017, a set of nested cup weights was discovered. According to their typological characteristics, as well as the archaeological context in which they were found, they could be dated to the 15th century. Weights were basic instruments in various forms of trade and, thanks to their form, they became a portable tool, suitable for carrying in a bag. They are distinguished by their thoughtful design, precision and high quality of workmanship. The discovered set belongs to a specific type of archaeological find that is of importance for the study of the methods of measurement and the measurement system used in medieval Serbia
