During construction work for a solar park, a Celtic princely grave has been uncovered for the first time. Experts classify the discovery and the artefacts it yielded as exceptionally significant.
Among the grave goods recovered are several gold rings, an Etruscan beaked jug probably imported from what is now Tuscany in Italy, as well as the remains of weapons. Archaeologists also found traces of a two-wheeled wagon, including non-ferrous metal fittings from the wheel hubs and axle caps and iron tyre fittings. The finds suggest that the person buried there was probably a man, explained archaeologist Udo Recker.
