Abstract

The large two-volume study with the English title “Bronze Age Burial Customs in the Middle and Lower Danube Basin” treats a subject which has been discussed controversially for some time by specialists studying the Bronze Age in general and of the Carpathian Basin (with the surrounding regions) in special. In the Introduction (pp. 11-12) we find a brief description of the space and time treated, the documentary basis and the methods of analysis used. The spatial limits are determined mainly by the archaeological cultures of the Bronze Age together with geographic features, the latter in principle being the hydrological basin of the lower Danube river and the eastern half of the middle Danube, roughly from where the Tisza joins it in the west to the Dnestr in the east (which does not strictly flow into the Danube, but may be justified as border archaeologically). In a north-south direction the limits are given by the Stara Planina (Balkan mountains) to the south and the Carpathians in the north. This space covers modern Romania, as well as parts of Slovakia, Hungary, Serbia and Voivodina, Bulgaria, Moldavia and Ukraine and is thus laudably not limited to modern borders, which have nothing
