Abstract

The dataset presented in this paper includes data about macro- and micro-stratigraphy, as well as macro- and micro-artefacts from the Early Iron Age smithy (Building 24, phase IIb2) at the Pungrt Hillfort, Central Slovenia. The data were collected during the archaeological excavation and geoarchaeological sampling at the site, followed by laboratory processing and analysis of the gathered samples. All the data are stored at the Repository of the University of Ljubljana. Their potential lies, on the one hand, in further validation of results presented in the research paper [1] on Building 24 at Pungrt. More importantly, they act as a reference base helpful in recognising distinct lime floor coats and washes, interpreting various micro-stratigraphic earthen and lime-based floor sequences, and identifying micro-refuse materials, especially those related to blacksmithing.
