Hillfort in Małopolskie

This Iron Age hillfort is located on the top of Góra Zyndrama ("Zyndram’s Mountain"). The fortified settlement is dated for Hallstatt period (750/650 – 400 BC in this part of Europe). Remains of a stone defensive rampart from late Hallstatt period were discovered during the excavations. The later phase of the settlement is connected with Puchov culture (La Tene period).

Re: Grodzisko Góra Zyndrama by Anonymous on Saturday, 15 December 2018
Accordingly to the ongoing research project the site has three main occupational periods - the Early Bronze Age (Otomani culture), Late Bronze-Early Iron Age and LaTene period. New excavations in 2015-2018 revealed remains of the massive stone fortifications dated to ca. 1750 BC. They display the same stilistic traits as the others oldest examples of defensive stone architecture in Central Europe, especially Monkodonia hillfort on the Adriatic coast.

    Indeed, as far as I know it is the northernmost hillfort with Bronze Age stone fortifications in this part of Europe (and so far unique in Poland). I've actually participated in the excavations of this hillfort in 2014 and 2015, for some reason I still have not submitted the photos - I will do so soon.
