Pasko Kuzman (Macedonian: Паско Кузман; born 1947) is a Macedonian archaeologist.
Work
Kuzman has been working on the whole territory of the Republic of Macedonia, but especially in the Skopje area and Lake Ohrid, one of the deepest lakes in Europe. There, he has been excavating 3,000-year-old submerged sites of Lychnidos, and some remains in the area of the Samuil's Fortress, which were built probably at the time of Philip II.[citation needed]
Kuzman is considered in the Republic of Macedonia to be the most deserved man for the archaeologist findings in the country in the recent years.[1]
Private life
Pasko Kuzman is married and has four daughters, most recently he became a grandfather.[1] In 2013 he was arrested on antiquities smuggling charges.[2]
Time travel
Pasko Kuzman is a self-proclaimed time traveller. He wears three watches on his left wrist, which he says help him travel through time: one takes him back to the Bronze and Neolithic Age, one takes him to the future, and the third is "The Archeologists' Watch," which alerts him to the presence of gold.[3] His claims about achieving time manipulation have led scholars to believe he may be mentally unstable.[4]
