On the Bronze-Age settlement at Buhuberg in Waidendorf

in 1988 B. hahnel published a monograph dealing with a settlement at Buhuberg in Waidendorf. Buhuberg is a cone-shaped protuberance with a 160 x 90 m plateau and a descent on the north. on its western part there is a terrace protruding 3 m over adjacent fields. the plateau eastern side is declining from the 30 m height to the Morava river. the settlement cannot be considered the upland-type one because it was situated on only slightly undulating landscape. its bloom is dated to the veterov culture period, but finds and radiocarbon dating put its 1st phase (phase 1) to the unetice culture period. Finds dated to the unetice culture were excavated also in higher layers and several pits belonging to this culture, however. Buhuberg is the only settlement site within the Moravia-lower austria group of the unetice culture, on which horizontal stratigraphy of the unetice and veterov cultures can be expected. B. hahnel discovered 2 m high group of layers at the southwestern part and a profile at the plateau western part revealed that the terrace were formed by gradual accumulation of settlement layers on approximately 80 cm high knoll. at least this part of the settlement at Buhuberg can be assumed to be of the tell type.
