The man’s grave from Öremölla is particularly known for its well-preserved Roman wine set and the two glass beakers adorned with engraved ovals. The grave dates to the Roman Iron Age (c. 1–400 CE), with a more precise estimate around the year 100 CE. The man was given a cremation burial in Öremölla, Skivarp Parish, in Skåne. The artifacts were discovered by the farmer Rasmus Bengtsson and forwarded by the confectioner F. Dahlman, and were redeemed for 200 riksdaler in 1872.
