Tijekom lipnja i rujna 2020. godine provedena su arheološka istraživanja na prostoru naselja Nakovana koje je smješteno u zapadnome dijelu poluotoka Pelješca. Istraživanja su bila usmjerena na iskopavanja prapovijesne nekropole smještene na južnim padinama brda Zmijna. Istražena su dva groba koji se okvirno datiraju u 11. (grob 1), odnosno 7. st. pr. Kr. (grob 2). Oba groba nalaze se na ravnome, u neposrednoj blizini kamenih gomila. Ostaci vrlo loše sačuvanih kosturnih ukopa kao i grobni prilozi, odnosno dijelovi nošnje i nakita, nalaze se relativno plitko u odnosu na današnju površinu. Pokojnici su polagani na kamen živac, u prirodnu udubinu (škrapu), ponekad omeđeni kamenim pločama (grob 1) i eventualno pokrivani većim kamenim blokovima (grob 2). S obzirom na otkrivene nalaze, pretpostavlja se kako se radi o predmetima ženske nošnje i nakita. Iz groba 1 mogu se izdvojiti nalazi brončanoga tordiranog torkvesa, lučne jednopetljaste fibule s dva zadebljanja na luku kao i dva spiralnonaočarasta privjeska s cjevastim srednjim dijelom. Iz groba 2 potječu ulomci brončane poramenice, narukvice, praporca i manjih obruča. Na cijelome prostoru Nakovane, s obzirom na kontinuiranu naseljenost gradine Grad, pretpostavlja se kontinuitet pokopavanja od prijelaznoga razdoblja s eneolitika na rano brončano doba, pa sve do kraja željeznoga doba., In June and September 2020, archaeological excavations were carried out in the area of the village of Nakovana in the western part of the Pelješac peninsula. The work focused on excavating the prehistoric cemetery on the southern slopes of Zmijna hill. The two explored graves have been roughly dated to the 11th (grave 1) and 7th (grave 2) century BC. Both graves were on flat terrain in the immediate vicinity of stone tumuli. The remains of very poorly preserved inhumation burials, along with grave goods and costume and jewellery items, are shallow relative to today’s surface. The deceased were laid on bedrock, in a natural hollow (škrapa), sometimes surrounded by stone slabs (grave 1) or covered with larger stone slabs (grave 2). The finds are assumed to be female costume and jewellery items. Notable finds from grave 1 include a bronze twisted torc, a single-loop bow fibula with two expansions on the arch, and two spiral spectacle pendants with a tubular middle part. The finds from grave 2 include the fragments of a bronze shoulder piece, a bracelet, a pendant, and small hoops. Considering the continuous habitation of the Grad hillfort, it is assumed that there were continuous burials in the entire area of Nakovana from the transitional period from the Eneolithic to the Early Bronze Age until the end of the Iron Age.
