Three megalithic tombs and a flat cemetery were discovered and examined. The most well-preserved tomb is about 30 m long, and its plan has a trapezoidal shape. Its stone settings formed a kind of dry-stone wall – a phenomenon on a European scale. In the front part of this tomb, a central grave has been examined, consisting of two stone chests – one at ground level and the other built into the ground. In this second feature, fragments of a male skeleton were discovered. Around the central grave, six burials were uncovered. Each of the megalithic tombs were accompanied by a flat cemetery. Six graves and a stone pavement were excavated. The burial pits were constructed of low, stone chests. Some of the deceased were equipped with burial goods – collared flasks, a shaft-hole axe, retouched flint blades, and some hematite lumps}, title={Unique structure of a megalithic tomb of the Funnel Beaker culture from Stryczowice, Ostrowiec świętokrzyski district}, type={Text}, URL={http://www.rcin.org.pl/iae/Content/236698/189586.pdf}, keywords={Neolithic, Funnel Beaker culture, megalithic tombs, grave constructions, Sandomierz Upland}, }
