The preparation of the Valaliky industrial park for the arrival of Swedish carmaker Volvo is slowly coming to an end. However, a rare burial site at the future construction site has been discovered. "Thanks to an archaeological survey, we discovered the first Old Hungarian burial ground in the Košice basin. It's a large burial ground. So far we have found more than 260 graves, while around 160 have been examined," reported Adam Gašpar, a field archaeologist from the Institute of Archaeology of the Slovak Academy of Sciences in Košice. The graves date to the 10th century.
