English: Grave goods from Morrione
The cemetery of Morrione was laid out in the 7th century in irregular rows of graves oriented east-west. The dead were buried lying in a supine position. Remnants of coffins have been found in only a few instances. At a remove of just 800 meters, the cemetery of Vicenne has a nearly identical layout. A noteworthy feature of both cemeteries is the presence of 19 mounted warriors' graves, each with an accompanying burial of a horse. This burial custom is extremely rare in Italy and has its closest parallels in the Avar burial grounds of Hungary, for example the necropolis of Zamárdi. In addition to the horse burials, the specific form of earrings found in women's graves and the decorative patterns of ornamental fittings found in men's graves are closely related to those of the Avars.
Deutsch: Grabbeigaben aus Morrione
Der Bestattungsplatz von Morrione wurde im 7. Jahrhundert in unregelmäßigen Gräberreihen in ost-westlicher Orientierung angelegt. Die Toten wurden auf dem Rücken liegend bestattet, nur in wenigen Fällen lassen sich Reste von Särgen nachweisen. In einem Abstand von nur 800 m liegt das Gräberfeld von Vicenne, das eine nahezu identische Belegungsstruktur aufweist. Eine Besonderheit beider Gräberfelder ist das Vorkommen von 19 Reitergräbern mit Pferdebestattung. Diese Bestattungssitte ist in Italien ausgesprochen selten und findet ihre nächsten Parallelen in den awarischen Gräberfeldern Ungarns, z.B. der Nekropole von Zamárdi. Neben den Pferdebestattungen weisen auch spezifische Ohrringformen in den Frauengräbern und Dekorationsschemata bei Zierbeschlägen in den Männergräbern auf enge Bezüge zu den Awaren hin.
