The biritual cemetery at Surany-Nitriansky Hrádok by Gertrúda Březinova.

With an oval ground plan and protected from north and west by an arm of the Nitra River named Cítenka, the tell settlement of Šurany, Nitriansky Hrádok was occupied throughout prehistory and into to the Middle Ages. The first rescue surveys were undertaken in 1923 by the Archaeological Institute in Prague led by J. Eisner. The site was researched in 1930 by Št. Janšák, who, based on field observations, was the first to recognise the site as being an acropolis of the neighbouring contemporary settlements.
