摘要

The Bronze Age tell settlement of Százhalombatta-Földvár in Hungary was inhabited from c. 2000 to 1400 BC. As part of the “Százhalombatta Archaeological Expedition (SAX)” project, annual archaeological excavations have been conducted for over 25 years.

Since it is a Bronze Age settlement, remains of houses and pits, as well as deposits of waste and soil, have been found.

In areas used by humans, plant remains are always found in abundance in the soil.

What is special about the finds from Százhalombatta-Földvár presented here is that distinct circular layers of phytolith were discovered, and the SiO2 aggregates are arranged in the same way as they originally appeared in the plant. These phytolith layers can be up to approximately 2–5 mm in thickness and cover areas up to 3 m2. For this study, phytolith samples were taken and examined under a scanning electron microscope without further processing. The results allow conclusions to be drawn about the deposited plant remains and to speculate about the origin of the deposits.
