Abstract

Prior to the construction of the M7 highway in Somogy County, excavations unearthed a part of a large scale Early Iron Age settlement on an extended surface at Balatonboglár-Berekre-dűlő in 1994–1995 and 2001–2003. Given the amount of the find material, a section of the settlement has been processed first, which contains an empty space surrounded with 60 features: pits, remains of buildings and furnaces, firing spots. The section is poor in metal finds; clay-, stone- and bone objects, tools are also present, but the majority of the find material consists of ceramic shards, which are dating the settlement mainly to the Ha C2–D1 period. The connections of the find material point in the direction of other sites from Transdanubia,
Eastern Austria and the Southeastern-Alpine region. The flat settlement at present marks out with its size from the Early Iron Age sites of Southern Transdanubia.
