This article presents the Sumerje cemetery near Gornja Bistrica, discovered during the construction of the Cirkovce-Pince power line. In an excavation area measuring 40 m x 40 m, 80 cremation graves were unearthed. An extensive monograph on the cemetery is currently in preparation, with some ongoing analyses; therefore only a few selected graves are fully presented, along with a typological classification of the finds and basic information about the cemetery. The cemetery can be dated to the late phases of the Urnfield culture, among the Ru & scaron;e Urnfield group (stages Ha B1 to Ha B3 according to M & uuml;ller-Karpe's schema). Considering that the cemetery extends beyond the excavation field on all four sides, it is presumed to be a larger cemetery, comparable in size to other major Late Bronze Age cemeteries in Slovenia, such as Ru & scaron;e, Pobre & zcaron;je, Ljubljana, Dobova, and Obre & zcaron;je.
