A Broader Context: The Urnfield Culture

Filed under: General — Tags: , , — m759 @ 4:32 pm

"In a broader context, the subalpine Golasecca culture
is the very last expression of the Middle European
Urnfield culture of the European Bronze Age. The culture's
richest flowering was Golasecca II, in the first half of the
6th to early 5th centuries BC. It lasted until it was
overwhelmed by the Gaulish Celts in the 4th century BC
and was finally incorporated into the hegemony of the
Roman Republic."
