In 2021, in the well-known Oksywie and Wielbark Culture cemetery at Czarnówko in Gdańsk Pomerania, a very well-equipped grave was discovered that deserves to be called 'princely'. It is the eleventh grave of this type in the cemetery. Feature 1927 is a cremation grave which was re-opened in antiquity. The urn contained fragments of two Roman vessels: a bucket of copper alloy and a badly melted glass cup or goblet. Despite the cremation, the set of personal objects is rich. It includes a brooch typical of the Wielbark Culture, fragments of two silver bracelets of different types, a golden crescent-shaped pendant, a pendant with a cowrie shell core in a strap-setting, a belt buckle and strap end, and more, all also placed in the urn. The buried person died in the age of senilis; according to the archaeological criteria, it is the burial of a woman. The grave can be dated to subphase C1b. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
