Abstract

Large scale archaeological excavations conducted in recent years enabled us to get the information about the internal structure of the Bronze Age settlements and the dynamics of their development. Detailed dating programs demonstrated that almost all the settlements had at least two phases of activities. Among the most interesting ones is Sodolek from eastern Slovenia demonstrating the development of the settlement from the Middle to the Late Bronze Age. The dating of individual structures containing finds enabled us to formulate hypotheses about the beginning of other, undated, sites as well as to propose an absolute date for the beginning of the Urnfield Culture in the region.
