In 2007 and 2008, the Institute of Archaeology UW team, conducted by prof. Elżbieta Kowalczyk- Heyman and Michał Dzik MA, undertook excavations on newly discovered Early Medieval burial-site in Twarogi Lackie, the Podlaskie Voivodeship. During two seasons there were discovered over dozen flat graves with stone-settings - a typical form of graves in this region, between the second half of the 11th and the 13th c. They consist oflarge stone surroundings and a few-layered cobblestones, covering the remains of the dead. In most of them there were found remains of inhumation burials and in two graves - cremation ones. Apart from sherds, the set of finds from this burial-site consists of iron knife and flint, glass beads and also metal jewelry and elements of dress (finger rings, bracelet, buckle, temple rings). Already explored part of the site is dated back to the second half of the 12th and the first half of the 13th c. The excavations are to be continued in 2011.
