Die letzte Fahrt

Das urnenfelderzeitliche Wagengrab von Essenbach

The Early Urnfield period wagon grave from Essenbach (Landshut district, Lower Bavaria) uncovered during a planned excavation in 2011 is an important new exhibit to the collection of the Germanisches Nationalmuseum. This volume, published on the occasion of an exhibition on this important feature, presents the Essenbach wagon grave and categorises it in terms of the society, economy and religion of the Urnfield period. 

Dr. Angelika Hofmann M.A. is head of the archaeological collection at the Germanisches Nationalmuseum in Nuremberg. Her research focuses on the pre-Roman metal ages, landscape and settlement archaeology and urban archaeology.
