History

The district was established as Landkreis Burgenland by the merger of the former Burgenlandkreis and Landkreis Weißenfels as part of the reform of 2007. On 16 July 2007, the district parliament decided to change the name to Burgenlandkreis, coming into effect on 1 August 2007.[2]

In 2015 the skeletal remains of an ancient inhabitant of Karsdorf dated from the Early Neolithic (7200 BP) were analyzed; he turned out to belong to the paternal T1a-M70 lineage and maternal lineage H1.[3][4]

gollark: Well, I wanted to write a thing, and my choices are/were essentially:- Rust - kind of annoying (yes, yes, I know) since I don't care that much about performance and don't mind just waiting for the garbage collector to garbage collect- JavaScript - fast/easy for me to write, but horribly resource-inefficient and it'll probably break in a few months from dependencies- Python - I don't really like it for larger-scale things, and dependency management is still fairly bees- something else, and I'd heard OCaml was neat
gollark: Yes, I'm assuming it probably isn't, but I don't know what *is* going on.
