ASSOCIATIONS OF ARCHAEOLOGICAL FINDS IN MIDDLE BRONZE AGE CENTRES OF THE EASTERN CARPATHIAN BASIN - ASPECTS OF POWER

Journal Title: Acta Terrae Septemcastrensis - Year 2011, Vol 10, Issue 0

Abstract

 In this study, the issues of aspects of power and power centres in the Middle Bronze Age in the eastern Carpathian Basin are briefly addressed. The nature and aspects of power is discussed, next to a survey of selected important sites of the period. The rare material culture and find associations of some special contexts is presented in order to establish a pattern of how aspects of power manifest themselves in these associations. With this background in mind, some yet unpublished, special finds from Tilişca-Cetate are presented. Some of these finds are very distinctive in shape and function. Analogies for them are only found at a few sites and in low numbers. Their publication is important as new, as of yet, undocumented types add to knowledge of Bronze Age societies. These finds are presented in detail and certain areas of the site are placed in a broader landscape of the aspects of power in the eastern Carpathian Basin.
