Description The first solitary artefakts from the Lausitzs burial in Slavkov, dis. Opava, were found in the beginning of the 19th century. Seven graves, all cremations, were found in 1977 in consequence of construction water main. Graves from number three to seven were destroyed during the earthmoving works. Only graves number one and two were conserved in primary position. This burial was used during the Silesian period of the Lausitz culture to the beginning of Iron age. We can claim it on the base of the analysis of pottery.
