The paper presents an excavation report from the Wielbark culture cemetery at Weklice, the Elbląg commune, Site 7, season 2009. Two trenches were dug out, 188 square metres in all with 18 inhumation and 1 urn cre- mation grave, dated from Phase B2 to Phase C2. In a few cases log coffins were traced, made of oak wood. Inhumation graves No. 545, 546, 555 are ofspecial interest as human remains were not in anatomical order despite complete furnishing having been found there (so probably they were not robbed and different phenomena resulted in their disturbance, e.g., re-opening of the graves during post-funeral rituals or burrowing animals activity). As refers to the relics one should enumerate a glass vessel from Grave 552 (Fig. 1). It is dated to Phase C2 (a strap end Type Raddatz JII3, clay vessels Type Wołągiewicz VIB and XVIIID). It is close to Type M0llegardsmarken 1566, popular in Denmark but produced in Rheinland work- shops. Another unique find is a small knife from Grave 562 (fig. 2), made of bronze and ornamented with a zigzag line. It is also dated to Phase C2 (i.a., an antler comb Type Thomas I, glass and amber beads).
