Found in burial No. 3 in the Village of Hryniv. It has a triangular shape. At the base is a tip that ends in a spring, which is attached to the thickened convex-concave part of the fibula with a plate and a through ring. From the ring, a thickened rod extends, which transitions into a plate with four holes and grooves for the tip, ending in a ball. The color is dark brown. Przeworsk culture was spread on the territory between the Oder and the Vistula between the 3rd century BC to the 5th century AD. In Ukraine, the sites of the Przeworsk culture are located in Volyn and southern Podillya, dating back to the 1st century BC - 1st century AD. The funeral rite is cremation.
