Rituell oder profan? Ein bronzezeitlicher Fundplatz in der bayerischen Donau-Aue: Berichte über die archäologischen Untersuchungen im Gesamtprojekt der Gas-Loopleitung von Forchheim nach Finsing, Trassenabschnitt 26 bei Gaden, Gde. Pförring, Lkr. Eichstätt
The 2017/2018 construction of a 75 km long gas loop pipeline from Forchheim in the municipality of Pförring, administrative district Eichstätt, and the municipality of Finsing, district Erding in Bavaria, brought to light a section of a Bronze Age settlement in the Danube floodplain (ca. 2000-1650 BC). The report comprehensively describes the excavation methods, features and finds, and includes a preliminary evaluation of a particular site in Pförring, district Eichstätt. The focus is on hearth-like features, pottery concentrations, calcined bone fragments, a stone "marker", and post holes belonging to an Early to Middle Bronze Age site. The results raise the decisive question of the character of the site: is it ritualistic or mundane? Finally, the large scale of archaeometric sampling (geological, botanical, 14C-dating) conducted, has great potential for future scientific research.
