Abstract: The article discusses the finding of two dirham imitations and the accompanying glass beads, which presumably formed a necklace unique in Poland. The artefacts were discovered during research on the early-medieval building-granary, uncovered on the hillfort’s open square in Kłodnica, in the municipality of Wilków, Opole Lubelskie county, Lublin Voivodeship. The object has been radiocarbon dated to the end of 10th – first half of the 11th century. Ornaments of this type are known mainly from early-medieval Kievan Rus’, especially from the Volga region and from Scandinavia. During the research, other artefacts with analogies from the areas of Kievan Rus’ were also encountered.
