About Apahida necropolis

The Apahida necropolis is an archaeological site in Apahida, Romania. Two graves have been discovered and a third one may have existed. One of the graves was discovered in 1889 and its artifacts are currently in Budapest. The second was unearthed in 1968, 300 m from the first, during an excavation for the installation of concrete poles. Its grave goods are now on display in the National Museum of Romanian History. The second grave dates to c. 475 and was presumed to be the tomb of a Gepid king, based on the inscription on a gold ring called Omharus.
