Czerwony Dwór, st. XXI, woj. warmińsko-mazurskie : badania w roku 2011

Abstrakt

The barrow cemetery of the Gołdap Concentration of the Sudovian Culture at Czerwony Dwór (Site XXI) has been excavated since 2003. In 2011 works on the next two barrows (Nos. 38 and 50), situated in the Late Roman Period zone of the site were carried out. The original diameter of Barrow 38 was perhaps ca. 9 m, but it was secondarily enlarged. The central grave was plundered. It can be supposed, however, that the construction comes from the Late Roman Period. Below it, remains of a completely destroyed cemetery of the Bogaczewo Culture from the beginning of the Early Roman Period were found. In all probability, this cemetery was soon abandoned. The other excavated barrow (No. 50), with the diameter of ca. 3.1 m, was also plundered. However, based on the construction of its earthwork, it can be dated to the Late Roman Period. Near the barrow, two pit graves with black fill (they were perhaps covered with remains of the funeral pyre) were discovered. No grave furnishings were found there.
