The Archaeological Museum in Gdansk has publicly presented an extraordinary 2,600-year-old house urn for the first time, marking a significant milestone in Polish archaeology. This remarkable Early Iron Age artifact, discovered in 2023 during rescue excavations in BoΕΌepole Wielkie, represents only the fourth house urn found in Poland since World War II, making it an exceptionally rare and valuable archaeological treasure, reports PAP.
The unique rectangular clay vessel, designed to mimic a house complete with nine legs and a round door, provides fascinating insights into cremation practices of the Pomeranian culture that flourished between the 7th and 3rd centuries BC. Unlike typical burial urns, this house-shaped container held the cremated remains of multiple individuals, offering unprecedented evidence of Early Iron Age funeral traditions in Eastern Pomerania.
