Figures & Tables

Figure 1

Locations of (A) Slovenia in Europe, (B) Ljubljana Marsh in central Slovenia, (C) Pungrt Hillfort on its southern outskirts, and (D) a close-up view of the hillfort with the fortification wall and terraces visible in the topography (transparent red) and the excavated area (opaque red) in its interior. (after [9]; A: [10], B–D: [11]).

Figure 2

Pungrt Hillfort. Late Hallstatt period composite plan of the excavated area and a detailed plan of the Late Hallstatt period Building 24 in its IIb2 stratigraphic phase (modified after [9]).

Figure 3

Pungrt Hillfort, Building 24, Phase IIb2. Orthophoto of Building 24 and Road 1 floor plan overlain with a numbered sampling grid.

Figure 4

Pungrt Hillfort, Building 24, Phase IIb2. Examples of identified cultivars. Cereals are represented by (A) Triticum sp. seeds, (B)Triticum spelta chaff, and (C) Hordeum vulgare seed (left: naked, right: hulled), (D) Panicum miliaceum seed, (E) Setaria cf. italica seed. Legumes are represented by (F) Lens culinaris seed and (G) cf. Pisum sativum seed.

Figure 5

Pungrt Hillfort, Building 24, Phase IIb2. Examples of SEM-EDS results from cereal food analysis: (A) EDS spectrum for sample Ig A-264 and microphotographs of samples (B) Ig A-264, (C) Ig A-266, (D) Ig A-267.

Figure 6

Pungrt Hillfort, Building 24, Phase IIb2. Examples of spatial analysis results for (A–B) charcoal concentrations and (C–D) sediment pH measurement values. The distributions are presented (A, C) at the resolution of the sampling grid and (B, D) at the high-resolution distribution obtained with kriging interpolation.
