Die hallstattzeitlichen Fürstengräber von Kleinklein in der Steiermark: die beiden Hartnermichelkogel und der Pommerkogel
After the new presentation of the Kröllkogel, the other three princely tombs of the Separatnekropole of Kleinklein were also to be reworked.
The graves show a clear chronological sequence: At the beginning is Hartnermichelkogel 1, where the founder of the Separatnekropole was buried in the last decades of the 8th century BC. The clearly younger Pommerkogel is likely to date between 660/650 and 630/620 BC. What is remarkable is that the grave furnishings are largely identical, which testifies to a fixed set of rules according to which the highest elite had to be buried in small graves over a period of 150 years. The construction of the separate necropolis thus suggests a clearly elevated position of this group of people as well as a pronounced dynastic consciousness.
