Objective and methods
The publication of an archaeological synthesis in English – available to a large number of scientists, will significantly further scientific knowledge about the beginings of the Late Iron Age at the western edge of the Great Steppe and the northwestern shores of the Black Sea. Furthermore, in the context of the tragic political and military events unfolding nowadays in Eastern Europe, our project – involving member teams from Romania and the Republic of Moldova, as well as external collaborators from Ukraine could also be considered a declaration of solidarity between Romanian, Moldavian and Ukrainian researchers.
