Kreisgrabenanlage Schönebeck, Neolithic ring ditch in Schönebeck, Germany.
The circular enclosure consists of a double ditch system with an 80-meter diameter and features two entrances facing northwest and north directions.
The archaeological site, discovered through aerial photography in 1991, dates back to the Early Bronze Age period between 2150 and 1740 BCE.
Archaeological excavations revealed ceramic vessels, animal bones, and structural elements belonging to the early Aunjetitz culture of Central Germany.
The site lies on a flat elevation in the Elbe lowlands, situated 1.3 kilometers northwest of the Pömmelte circular enclosure archaeological complex.
The excavation area contains an extended necropolis from the Late Bronze Age and Early Iron Age, including a small oval ditch measuring 13 meters in diameter.
