Recent excavation work at the Lusatian cemetery at Trencin (Záhumnie) exposed two skeletons with inventory typical of the Corded Ware culture. One of them belonged to a man (No. 424), the other to a dog (No. 440). It is not clear whether the two were buried in the same grave. That seems probable although no good evidence could be found to support it, nor could the outline of the pit be traced. As any evidence of the presence of Corded Ware people in Slovakia is extremely rare, the two burials offer the first direct proof of contacts between the local population (the Bosáca group) and the bearers of Corded Ware culture. The latter may have found their way to Western Slovakia through the passes of the White Carpathian Mountains and Moravia.
