Why it is possible for a core stones to remain in place although they seem very loose
Answers
Since its discovery in the 1960s, the
Zvejnieki cemetery in northern Latvia has become a reference for hunter-gatherer burial archaeology. The current number of 330 excavated graves (Zagorskis, 1987, 2004; Larson et al., 2017) makes it one of the largest burial grounds in northern
Europe. Zvejnieki is exceptional not only for the quantity of recorded burials but also for their temporal span, from the eighth to the third millennium BC and beyond. Well-documented by the stan- dards of the day, the burial practices reflected by the unusually well-preserved human bones and diverse material culture
have been (and still are) widely studied and published, making Zvejnieki the showcase site of the Latvian Stone Age.
