Abstract

The paper presents a dataset from the Late Antique cemetery Lajh in Kranj (Slovenia), one of the largest burial grounds of the period in the wider region. The dataset combines archaeological, archival, and museum data generated over more than a century of excavations conducted under highly variable methodological conditions. A thorough revision of field documentation, publications, inventory books, photographs, maps, preserved artefacts and osteological material enabled the reconstruction and critical assessment of grave assemblages and associated finds. The resulting dataset provides a standardised basis for further quantitative, comparative and interdisciplinary research into Late Antique and Early Medieval burial practices.
