Abstract
The paper presents a newly discovered hoard of bronze ornaments, which was found in November 2014 in Brzeg,Rzeczyca commune, Tomaszow Mazowiecki district (Fig. 1). After the initial analysis of the artefacts included in thedeposit, it was found that there were 4 oval bronze plates with eyelet, decorated with two rows of ambient points embossedfrom the bottom, 35 pipe-shaped salta leone coils with a total length of 2,941 m and fragments of a pottery vessel inwhich the bronze ornaments were placed. The pot belongs to the G123 variant (Gorski 2007), with an underlined shoulderand a neck folded outwards, with a slightly thickened rounded/truncated edge, the bottom is not separated (Fig. 2: 1).Spectrometric analysis has shown that all artefacts belong to high-tin bronzes (Table 1). After conducting a formal analysis,mainly of the metal artefacts included in the hoard, and to a lesser extent taking into account the discovered vessel, thetime when the hoard from Brzeg was deposited, should be located in the BrD-HA1 phases, which corresponds to the rangeof 1350-1150 BC in absolute dating
