In Lithuania and, specifically, in its eastern part which falls into the habitat of the East Lithuanian Barrow Culture (c. 3/4th–11/12th century AD), rescue archaeology encouraged the search for new archaeological facts, namely, burials between barrows. The first results considerably shattered the established belief that burials had been made in barrows only and provided an argument in favour of the possibility of a dual burial tradition of both barrows and flat burials. This article focuses on these “atypical graves” detected during the rescue excavations at one of the most representative barrow cemeteries, namely, Jakšiškis barrow cemetery. A detailed analysis of the Jakšiškis barrow cemetery research materials implies, however, that adopting the hypothesis of the flat burials as proven might be premature, and the circumstances of their discovery enable more than one alternative interpretation.

The article not only includes an analysis of the changes that took place in the territorial distribution of general education schools and list of instruction languages in 1999–2012 but also is an attempt to evaluate the general education system of the region under consideration within the available database. Attention is focused on the three stages of formal education: elementary, basic and secondary education as constituent parts of general education. For ranking a municipality as a multilingual one a criterion characterising a territory according to the national composition is applied: the portion of non-Lithuanian population must exceed the Lithuanian average (in 2012, this index amounted to 16.3 %). There are 9 such municipalities in East Lithuania (in the Zarasai Dis., Visaginas, Ignalina Dis., Švenčionys Dis., Vilnius, Vilnius Dis., Elektrėnai, Trakai Dis.). The time frame for analysis was not chosen randomly. The territorial distribution of multilingual schools was last analysed more than ten years ago. Moreover, a school reform took place in these years. The reform also was responsible for the changes in the territorial distribution of general education schools. References 37. The article is in Lithuanian with abstract and summary in English.
