Some 1,500 years ago, a child was buried with a set of game pieces made of animal bones. Single game pieces are frequently found in early medieval graves in south-west Germany, but complete sets are rare.
Found in Herbolzheim, 500-550 AD.

Head from an Amazon statue, discovered in the Basilica Noniana in in 2006, which retains pigments in the hair and the eyes. The remainder of the statue probably still lies inside the unexcavated portion of the basilica. 1/

More than 100 megalithic graves are known from the Haldenslebener Forst in Sachsen-Anhalt, Central Germany. One of the densest concentrations of such constructions in Europe.
