A culture from the Bronze Age to the Iron Age found throughout Europe. Its name comes from the ruins that lie on the shores of the lake of the same name, southeast of Salzburg, Austria. The ruins have been known since the 18th century and have been frequently investigated, resulting in the discovery of as many as 2,500 graves. Many graves have been discovered at other sites, but relatively few residential sites have been discovered. Many are inherited from the indigenous Urnenfeld culture, but the influence of Greek culture is also evident. Many metal products such as bronze and iron are buried in the graves. Horse equipment and chariots, which indicate the use of horses, have also been found as grave goods. It is often associated with the Celts. Some of the forts from this period appear in Caesar's "Commentaries on the Gallic Wars."

ヨーロッパに広くみられる青銅器時代から鉄器時代にかけての文化。名前の由来は、オーストリアのザルツブルク東南東にある同名の湖の湖岸に遺跡があることによる。この遺跡は18世紀以来知られており、調査もしばしばなされ、2500にも及ぶ墓が発見されている。ほかの遺跡でも墓は多く発見されているが、住居址(し)の発見は比較的少ない。土着のウルネンフェルト文化から受け継いでいるものが多いが、ギリシア文化からの影響も色濃くみられる。墓には青銅製品、鉄製品などの金属製品が多く埋められている。またウマの利用を物語る馬具、戦車の副葬もみられる。ケルト人と結び付けられることが多い。この時期の砦(とりで)のなかにはカエサルの『ガリア戦記』に登場するものもある。 [藤本 強] 出典 小学館 日本大百科全書(ニッポニカ)日本大百科全書(ニッポニカ)について 情報 | 凡例 |
