The Naujoji Vilnia Burial Mounds dating back to the second half of the first century are located in Barsukynė Forest, the lands of the Regional Municipality of Rokantiškės. Four well preserved burial mounds can be seen at the eastern border of the Vilnia River arroyo. None of the mounds have been well preserved. Several mounds were dug out and desecrated by grave robbers. The larger mounds measure about 9–10 m in diameter and up to 1.6 m in height while the smaller ones are 6 m in diameter and 1 m in height.
