The article discusses three La Tène cremation graves discovered in Sládkovičovo (SW Slovakia) during the construction of a new access road to family houses in the site Pri železnici/Malý Diosek. Burnt human remains were placed together with grave inventory in one or two concentrations in northern parts in grave pits. Human remains were in one of the graves (grave 1) in a vessel. Rich equipment in graves 2 and 3 consisting especially of parts of costume points to adult woman burials. The graves can be based on grave inventory and radiocarbon dating from animal bones to the Middle La Tène – LT C1 stage (LT C1a phase). The article presents the basic processing of anthropological material, the grave inventory included archaeozoological analysis of animal bones. Very important is analysis of the burial rite of graves.
