The findings revealed a large rock formation containing dozens of tombs dating back 5,500 years. Photo: @J Bulas. Each of these tombs is lined with wooden stakes, in contrast to the stone-lined form found in most of the large stone tombs discovered in Poland. Photo: @J Bulas.
Archaeologist Marcin M. Przybyła, a member of the discovery team, said this could be one of the largest stone cemeteries in Poland. He described the site as having longer walls reinforced with wooden fences, while shorter eastern walls contained entrances to a kind of tomb chapel. Photo: @J Bulas. The team of experts believes this could be a prehistoric burial site of the Neolithic Funnel Beaker people in the area. Unfortunately, most of the remains and burial artifacts have been removed from these graves. Photo: @J Bulas. Additionally, a square defensive structure was found surrounding the stone tomb, suggesting the site may have been used as a temporary military camp in the 9th-10th centuries BC. Photo: @J Bulas.
Archaeologist Marcin M. Przybyła said this was a "unique discovery," helping them study the reinforcement techniques used in the 9th and 10th centuries BC, a period of great upheaval in Polish history. Photo: @J Bulas.
