Urnfield cultural graves are in good condition –

Nearly 30 spicy urns in unusually good condition were found near Mosburg in Lower Saxony Province in northern Germany. They date back to the Urnfield culture of the late Bronze Age (1200-600 BCE) and include several complete cremation burials during the Lower Saxony period.

During the construction of the drainage trench, urn was found on a road between Moisburg and Immenbeck. Archaeologists at the Hamburg Archaeological Museum (AMH) are supervising the construction project on site because Minarel’s remains were found along the road in the 1930s, so they hope they might find more. What they didn’t expect was to find the one that was still complete. In the 1960s, deep farming became the standard practice of German agriculture. Burnfield graves were buried in flat fields that were unmarked or at least survived, with ducks sitting and dense modern agriculture being severely damaged or destroyed many of them.

As the name suggests, the Ernfield culture cremated the dead, placed the remains of the ashes in the urns, and buried them in the open fields. Moisburg’s discovery is typical of Urnfield Graves: the remains of ash were placed in a pottery boat and buried in a pit. Some of these pits were surrounded by wild stones with an overturned bowl or flat lid on it.

“Unfortunately, this is also typical time, and there are almost no bones other than the cremated bones of the dead.” [district archaeologist Dr. Jochen] Brandt. If funds can be raised, the cremated remains will be cremated – the term for the ashes buried after cremation. Then, about 3,000 years later, at least some of the dead will still reveal their gender and age.
