About 50 barrows with average diameter of between 6 - 15 meters and a height of up to 2.5 meters are situated near the village of Milavce in Bohemia. The Milavce barrow burials are typical cremation ritual based, were the ash was placed in a big urns and covered within the barrow embankments. Barrow Cemetery

Unique artifacts were found in 1883. Vessels and bronzes - pins, bracelets, swords, daggers, axes were put around the central urn.
