The Unstrut culture was part of the Bronze Age Urnfield culture, a homogeneous society noted for their biconical funerary urns used in storing the ashes of the deceased.[1] The Unstrut (stone packing graves) group settled in Germany,[1] particularly in the central region where the Saale mouth (stone cists) group also lived.[2][1] These two groups, along with the Helmsdorf or Elb-Havel group formed on the western edge of the Lausitz culture.[3]
