Abstract
The following article presents the archaeological revaluation of the Middle Bronze Age Komarów culture cemetery of Pidhorodia in Western Ukraine in the Pre-Carpathian region. By examining scarce archival information from the pre-Second World War period, the Polish-Ukrainian research team brought to light evidence of a vast cemetery complex in Pidhorodia, consisting of 39 barrows. The applied combination of archaeological survey, drilling, and magnetometric prospection revealed aspects of the spatial arrangement of the Komarów culture necropolis, as well as details of the funeral architecture, which allowed to associate the burial mounds with the known canon of Komarów culture rites. This study presents the results of the archive query, followed by non-invasive survey, and their potential for revaluating the present state of knowledge regarding this barrow cemetery.
