Sažetak

In the period between 28th October and 11th November 2013 the Institute of Archaeology carried out the fifth season of archaeological research at the Torčec-Cirkvišče site. The 50 m2 excavated trench covered squares H and I 9. The topsoil was removed also from square K 9, but there was not enough time to excavate there too. A total of 78 graves were investigated this year. Most graves belonged to the parish cemetery and were dated to the Late Middle Ages and the Early Modern period. In addition to these graves we discovered also the burial of grave 161. It is completely dug into the virgin soil and reaches to a geological layer of gravel. Like the early medieval grave 108, it is filled with small gravel, and might be dated to the same period. Interestingly, we did not find the bones of the buried person. In addition to the graves we found also very scanty remains of walls. Even though these were completely destroyed, they nevertheless offer basic information regarding the alignment and dimensions of the structure.
