An ancient burial ground under the stones at Kadjaste
Muistne matmispaik Kadjaste kivihunniku all
On a field of Sepa farm in Kadjaste village, Uue-Vändra parish, lay a heap of boulders. Old men in the area said a building had once stood there, and ploughing had already turned up human bones, iron and bronze rings. In summer 1926 the farmer began clearing the heap to level the field and uncovered the remains of about four people and a bronze breast ornament. Locals told the museum in Tartu, an archaeologist came out to dig, and the paper dated the burial place to about 500 BC; stone-age objects, among them stone axes, also came out of the ground.

Uue-Vändra vallas Kadjaste külas Sepa talu põllul oli raudkivihunnik. Kohalikud hallpead teadsid rääkida, et seal olevat vanasti mingi ehitus olnud, ja kündmisel oli juba varem välja tulnud inimluid ning raud- ja pronkssõrmuseid. 1926. aasta suvel hakkas peremees põldu tasandama ja kive ära vedama ning päevavalgele tulid umbes nelja inimese luud ja pronksist rinnaehe. Leiust teatati Tartu muuseumile, sealt sõitis kohale arheoloog ja tegi kaevamised; lehe teatel pärines matusepaik umbes 500. aastast eKr; maa seest tuli ka kiviaja esemeid, nende seas kivikirveid.
