| Description |
English: The Woman's Grave of Freundorf
The grave field of Freundorf was laid out as a row grave field but was abandoned after a short period of usage. Sometime late in the Migration Period, or at latest in the Early Middle Ages, the cemetery was plundered - with the exception of the Warrior's Grave (Grave Discoloration 60) and the Woman's Grave (Grave Discoloration 422). Some excellent grave goods nonetheless remained, such as the gold pendant made with a solidus (527-537) of the Eastern Roman Emperor Justinian or the pair of unusually richly ornamented bowed fibulae (clothing pins). The characteristic fibulae and additional garment components identify the buried woman as a Lombard. Some of the grave goods - a glass bottle, a bone comb, and probably extremely small colored metal spangles on the garment - were deposited at one side of the burial shaft.
Deutsch: Das Frauengrab von Freundorf
Das Gräberfeld von Freundorf wurde als Reihengräberfeld angelegt, aber nach kurzer Belegung wieder aufgegeben. Noch in der späten Völkerwanderungszeit, spätestens im Frühmittelalter, wurde der Friedhof - mit Ausnahme des Kriegergrabes, Grab Verfärbung 60 und des Frauengrabes, Grab Verfärbung 422 - geplündert. Trotzdem blieben herausragende Beigaben erhalten, wie der Goldanhänger aus dem Solidus (527-537) des oströmischen Kaisers Justinian oder das ungewöhnlich reich verzierte Bügelfibelpaar (Gewandschließen). Die charakteristischen Fibeln und weiteren Trachtbestandteile weisen die Bestattete als Langobardin aus. Ein Teil der Beigaben - eine Glasflasche, ein Beinkamm und wahrscheinlich kleinste Buntmetallflitter des Gewandes - waren an einer Seite des Grabschachtes deponiert.
