PREHISTORIC HILLFORTS IN THE DOLENJSKA REGION

 

Project presentation

Within the prehistoric settlement pattern in the Dolenjska region, which represents very interesting archaeological landscape, the hillforts are prevailed. Almost a hundred fortified settlements were discovered in the area between the Sava and Kolpa Rivers, which is included in our research. The main goal of this project is geopositioning and measuring the settlement features, and the digging of trial trenches to determine the time-span of occupation and fortification techniques.

A publication of results from the trial trenches within the Zasavje settlements is in print (Arheološki vestnik 58, 2007, 65 ss).
