The study is focused on evaluation of archaeological finds from the necropolis dated to the Roman period at Velatice (distr. of Brno-venkov) obtained within the years 1923 – 2000. Concerning the necropolis, only grave units comprising artefacts of chronological information value have been published up to now. At the burial ground, forty nine graves were discovered; forty seven of them were cremation burials and two inhumation ones. The dead were buried here within the time of the early to the late Roman periods. Most of the cremation burials are of the late to the final Roman period. The study includes all the archaeological and anthropological materials from the necropolis that we succeeded to obtain from deposits of various institutions and private collections until 2009. The analysis of the archaeological finds was complicated by their finding situations and lack of quality documentation in majority of grave units. The cremation burials that were excavated more recently were situated within the distance of 2 to 5 m; but there is no information on the arrangement of all graves at the burial site, therefore the space relations among the graves cannot be studied. Anthropological analysis of bone remains brought no sex determination of the deceased caused by lack of representative samples. The richest grave excavated at the site was the grave 9, which included artefacts of both the Germanic and Roman provenience. Sex of the buried individual cannot be determined thoroughly. The catalogue comprises of register of graves and finds including those from disturbed grave units as well as vessels without finding situations.
