Excavations at Horbourg-Wihr uncovered 14 graves belonging to adults and children, along with two horse burials; finds include a sword, a shield, and gold and silver jewelry. According to researchers, the cemetery expands the limited evidence about communities in Alsace between the end of Roman rule and the beginning of the Merovingian period.

Brooches, jewelry-making molds, pottery and coins were found at a settlement in Mancot dating back about 2,000 years. The lead molds used to make brooches provide evidence of Roman-period craft production in the area and possible trade links with nearby Chester.

According to researchers, a human skeleton found within the remains of a stone-enclosed structure at Qinngua confirms that the site was used as a church and cemetery.

A metal belt buckle found in Tsetsyn Forest was dated to the 2nd–3rd centuries AD based on its decoration and manufacturing features.

Cannabis seeds from the Tunnug burial mound were dated to 800–760 BC; signals matching cannabis compounds were also detected in human hair. According to the researchers, the findings suggest that cannabis may have been used in funerary rituals for its psychoactive effects.
