The Vätteryd grave field, also known as Vätterydshed, is an Iron Age grave field in Hässleholm Municipality in Scania, Sweden [1]. The site is located in a heathfield between the localities of Tjörnarp and Sösdala [1]. Between 1955 and 1957, an archaeological survey was made of part of the burial ground [1]. The grave goods found — including bronze jewelry, glass and bronze pearls, and bronze wire — were taken to various museums in Stockholm [1].
