Abstract
The paper presents the results of archaeological research conducted in 2010 at the site of Crkvišće – Bukovlje. The archaeological excavations revealed a very small part of the prehistoric settlement; however, the analysis of stratigraphy and archaeological artefacts, but also the typological and chronological analysis of pottery, have led to conclusions about the time period of the settlement and details about the organization of the settlement, the structure of the ramparts, and the probable positions of structures in the settlement. The analysis of the pottery style has established that the site was settled in the younger phase of the Urnfield culture, which coincides with the results of the exploration of similar hillfort sites along the rivers of the Pokuplje region.
