The paper discusses two iron artefacts — a sword guard and a cheek-piece discovered within a cultural layer at multicultural site No. 1 in Zamiechów, powiat Jarosław. A typolo-chronological analysis of analogous artefacts was made. It showed that both of these items should be correlated with the Migration Period, even though no features dated to that period were found at the site. These items are probably to be associated with the Huns milieu and the communities cooperating with it. Also, the possibility of penetration of these items into the inventory of the Przeworsk culture as the result of various kinds of interactions between the peoples living in the areas of not only Central European Barbaricum but also of Eastern Europe, Pontic zone or even Caucasian one cannot be excluded.

This article presents the results of geophysical surveys, which were carried out during the period between 2011 and 2016 at the Roman period cemetery in Nezabylice (Chomutov district, Ústí Region, NW Bohemia). Thanks to these non-destructive surveys, the unusually large scale and signs of the inner structure of the cemetery have been unveiled. On this basis, long-term systematic archaeological research has been carried out, so far uncovering a number of urn graves with military equipment, pit cremation graves, an elite inhumation grave, and several regular structures from Roman period. The results of the comprehensive research suggest that it is the largest and richest cemetery of the Roman period in northwest Bohemia. However, the site is gradually being devastated not only by cyclical agrarian activities but also by the impact of illegal plundering. Therefore, an important aspect of non-destructive surveys is the recording of the current state of the burial ground, the information value of which is gradually degrading.
