1 Die Steinreihen verlaufen gekrümmt und sind<br />

ungefähr sechs Meter voneinander entfernt.<br />

Auch wenn <strong>di</strong>e dort geborgenen Funde aus der<br />

Bronzezeit stammen und somit jünger sind,<br />

kann man davon ausgehen, dass <strong>di</strong>e Steinreihen<br />

zum megalithischen Kultplatz der Kupferzeit<br />

gehörten.<br />

Dreieck A1 und Kreis B<br />

Im Jahre 1995 konnte eine dreieckige<br />

Struktur (Area A1) und eine große<br />

kreisförmige Anlage (Kreis B) ausgegraben<br />

werden. Nebeneinander angeordnete<br />

Steine umschließen den großen<br />

Kreis (Durchmesser 7 m), der mit<br />

einheitlichem Steinmaterial gefüllt ist.<br />

Wahrscheinlich bildete <strong>di</strong>eses Material<br />

ursprünglich einen Hügel, vielleicht<br />

einen Grabhügel. Verbrannte Knochenreste<br />

und Gefäßscherben wurden unter<br />

der Steinschicht, an der Oberfläche und<br />

nahe bei dem äußern Steinring gefunden.<br />

Auch wenn der Hügel langsam verfiel,<br />

1 Le file <strong>di</strong> pietra hanno un percorso sinuoso e<br />

sono <strong>di</strong>stanti 6 metri l’una dall’altra. I reperti<br />

emersi in quella zona risalgono all’età del Bronzo,<br />

un’epoca dunque più vicina ai nostri giorni,<br />

tuttavia le file <strong>di</strong> <strong>pietre</strong> sono chiaramente<br />

attribuibili al luogo <strong>di</strong> culto megalitico dell’età<br />

del rame.<br />

2 In primo piano il circolo B, vicino il triangolo A1.<br />

Triangolo A1 e cerchio B<br />

Durante la campagna del 1995 furono<br />

riportate alla luce una struttura triangolare<br />

(area A1) e un impianto grande<br />

e circolare (cerchio B). Sono formati da<br />

<strong>pietre</strong> <strong>di</strong>sposte una <strong>di</strong> fianco all’altra<br />

che racchiudono un cerchio del <strong>di</strong>ametro<br />

<strong>di</strong> 7 m, riempito <strong>di</strong> pietrame uniforme.<br />

Probabilmente questo materiale<br />

un tempo formava un basso rilievo,<br />

forse una sorta <strong>di</strong> tumulo. Resti ossei<br />

bruciati e frammenti <strong>di</strong> vasellame sono<br />

stati trovati sotto la coltre <strong>di</strong> <strong>pietre</strong>, in<br />

superficie e nei pressi del cerchio esterno<br />

<strong>di</strong> <strong>pietre</strong>. Benché il tumulo sia stato<br />

1 The stone rows are curved and run about six<br />

metres apart. Although the fin<strong>di</strong>ngs there belong<br />

to the later Bronze Age, it can be assumed that<br />

the megalithic stone rows belonged to a place of<br />

worship dating back to the Copper Age.<br />

2 Circle B in the foreground, nearby triangle A1.<br />

Triangle A1 and Circle B<br />

In 1995, a triangular structure (area A1)<br />

and a large circular structure (circle B)<br />

were excavated. Stones that were aligned<br />

next to each other enclose the large circle<br />

(<strong>di</strong>ameter: 7 metres), which was filled<br />

with stone material. This material probably<br />

originally formed a hill, perhaps a<br />

grave mound. Burned bones and pottery<br />

shards were found under this stone layer<br />

close to the surface and near the outer<br />

ring of stones. Even though the hill slowly<br />

decayed, the lighting of fire and shattering<br />

of pottery suggests that some ritual<br />

practices still took place at this point.
