The abundance of detector finds, several made of precious metals and of high technical skill, indicated the existence of a residence for the leading group at the site. Occupation layers as thick as two meters gave hope of finding sequences of houses on the same spot extending through centuries. Several houses were found but most of the excavation time, continuing until the early summer of 2004, was concentrated on a small but extraordinary house and its immediate surroundings.
The features and finds are the basis for a new and detailed view of the society and its rituals during most of the Iron Age, as presented in this volume. It should be emphasized that just a few months have passed since the excavation of the house complex was completed. This publication includes the presentation and study of the house sequence and a number of selected find categories. A number of find groups such as bones, pottery and beads have to be attended to in the near future. Analyses such as the different floors as regards chemical composition and deposition of ecofacts as well as analyses of the remains of casting has been initiated or are in the planning process.
