In 2006 a destroyed inhumation burial dated to the 2nd half of 10–11th c. was discovered on top of Wzgórze Staromiejskie (Old Town Hill) in Sandomierz (site 45). Grave furnishings consisted of a knife and iron hoops, the remains of a wooden bucket (Fig 2). The grave presumably belongs to an as yet unidentified Christian ‘row’ cemetery, ie not attached to a church. This would be the fourth site recorded in the region of Sandomierz, the third in the town itself, which produced a skeleton grave furnished with a wooden bucket (Fig. 1).
