The oldest scissors kept in the Belgrade City Museum belong to the Celtic communities that lived in the area of today's Karaburma. Not unlike today's scissors, they had numerous purposes, and it is thought that some of the scissors from the graves on Karburma and Rospi Ćuprija could have been deadly weapons.
