Studien zur spätbronzezeitlichen Chronologie im westlichen Mitteleuropa und in Westeuropa
The studies were carried out as preliminary work for an investigation of the Bronze Age river finds from the northern Upper Rhine. Based on the Late Bronze Age chronology advocated by the author since 1987, on the Hallstatt B chronology of Swiss research (limited to Switzerland and its immediate surroundings) and on dendrochronological data also for Bronze Age D, the possibilities of the stage division, the time approaches of the stage boundaries and the supra-regional validity of these stages and stage boundaries were again explored. It is not a matter of a systematic description of the contents of the stages, but rather of proving in principle that the close-meshed sequence of stages in stages of mostly 60 years, which can be found on the Rhine, Moselle and in Switzerland, can be transferred to the Urnfield Culture over a wide area, and can also serve as a standard for the chronology of the Atlantic Bronze Age.
