Abstract

The La Tène period cemetery in the suburb of Karlov in Kutná Hora lies in a region, in which older burial features are quite intensively concentrated along the rivers Vrchlice and Klejnárka. With its 49 from originally around 55 burials the almost fully excavated area can act as a model for contemporary cemeteries.

These date from phase Lt B1b-c onwards, the weapon graves occur more intensively in phase Lt B2. The cemetery was abandoned before the beginning of phase Lt C1.
