Abstract
Late La Tène defences
John Collis
Ian Ralston
135 - 146
Brief survey of British and Continental defences led to the conclusion that there is nothing in either the murus gallicus or the Kelheim type to suggest a Mediterranean origin; the spread of hornwork entrances and of dump ramparts may well be from Britain to the Continent; and the widespread adoption of the dump rampart appears to stem from its greater resistance to Roman siege machinery than the old timber-laced ramparts could offer.
Die östliche Randzone der Latènekultur The eastern limits of the La Tène culture
Zenon Wo niak
382 - 402
Examines archaeological, historical and linguistic evidence for Celtic penetration of E Europe. It is suggested that Celts were in the area of the Siebenburgen by 335 BC (date of the embassy to Alexander the Great, which may have come from that area). The small amount of La Tène B material from the E Balkans attests the first contacts with Celts. A concentration of La Tène B2/C material in the N and Central Moldau is in the territory of the Bastarnae for which Ptolemy notes Celtic place-names. La Tene C/?D finds in the Upper Dniestr/San region show penetration over the Carpathians, while contemporary warrior graves in Ottonia and N-Central Bulgaria may indicate the period of the military superiority of Scordisci and Bastarnae. In 2nd century BC the Siebenburgen Celts lost their independence. Further east numerous Middle and Late La Tène imports from Dacia appear Scordiscian, while in the N Pontic area little Celtic expansion is attested. Au(abr JVSM/CL)
