Summary/Abstract: The main purpose of this article is to present archaeological research in 2013 in Kartal/Orłowka, which concerned the discovery of the multicultural complex and its cemetery. The discovered cemetery is connected with an eneolite and the Bronze Age. Burials discovered during the excavaction were arranged in a fetal position (shrunken on the right side, legs pulled up under the chest), with a double burial, and equipment in the form of a bowl and a small vessel was found. Human bones were preserved in a poor condition, damaged due to the soil in which they were located and a small depth. Research developed the concept associated with the Eneolithic period and the early Bronze Age near the Danube river.
