The book "Brandbestattung und Bronzemetallurgie. Die Urnenfelderkultur in Niederösterreich (1300–800 v. Chr.)" is a valuable resource for researchers and the general public interested in the Urnfield Period in Lower Austria. It provides detailed information and analysis based on archaeological evidence, covering various aspects of the Late Bronze Age. The book explores topics such as climate, settlement patterns, lifestyle, exchange systems, plant and animal resources, raw materials for metallurgy, and weaponry. While the volume is comprehensive, it acknowledges a lack of research on the Urnfield Period in western Slovakia and western Hungary, suggesting a potential mental barrier in recognizing the significance of these regions during this period.
