In Tongobriga we’ve identified a necropolis outside the city limits near the main road. There were already been found clay pieces by the end of the 19th century. Incineration ritual predominates in the burials founded in Tongobriga. In this necropolis, Romans opened graves in the granite rock with 1.5 metres length, 0.5 metres width and 0.6 metres height were they deposed the body ashes, some pottery and coins. Then, graves were covered with granite flagstones.
