Overview
- Adam Mickiewicz University archaeologists used ground-penetrating surveys and aerial laser scanning to locate five trapezoidal earthen mounds at Wyskoć in Greater Poland Voivodeship
- The fully excavated tomb has confirmed ties to the Funnel Beaker culture and dates back about 5,500 years, with its long axis oriented east–west
- Two of the remaining four underground formations are now undergoing preliminary examination ahead of planned digs
- Officials expect to unearth pottery shards and copper ornaments even though acidic soils likely dissolved any human bones
- Heritage specialists are designing conservation measures to stabilize the site before opening this rare second regional grouping of megalithic monuments to visitors
