Dolenjska halštatska skupina. Uvodnik in kratek oris. (Slovenian)

The Dolenjska Hallstatt Group. An introduction and brief outline. (English)

The Dolenjska cultural group ranks among the better investigated parts of the south-eastern Alpine Hallstatt culture. It incorporates the region of Dolenjska, as well as Bela krajina, the Gorjanci/Žumberak Hills and the Posavje and Zasavje regions. The knowledge of the group has solid foundations in the chronological system that Stane Gabrovec set up and he and his students later enhanced. Substantial new findings came as a result of the study on the settlement of the territory of the Dolenjska group, its settlements and fortifications, as well as its organisation. Recent archaeological excavations, particularly of the tumulus cemeteries in Novo mesto and Budinjak, also illuminated new aspects. The burial rituals as mirrored in the different rites (cremation, inhumation) and different sizes and structures of tumuli (containing many or few burials, with or without a central grave, with graves in concentric circles, with graves of differing orientations and so forth) indicate a complex Hallstatt society and tell of its social stratification and religious beliefs, while the grave goods reveal a society with a distinctly military organisation as opposed to some other groups of the south-eastern Alpine circle.

Dolenjska kulturna skupina je ena izmed bolje raziskanih predelov jugovzhodnoalpske halštatske kulture, ki obsega poleg Dolenjske tudi Belo krajino in Gorjance/Žumberak ter Posavje in Zasavje. Solidno osnovo zanjo predstavlja kronološka shema, ki jo je predložil S. Gabrovec in ki je bila dopolnjena predvsem s strani njegovih učencev. Bistveno nova so spoznanja, ki so jih prinesle raziskave o poselitvi teritorija dolenjske skupine, o njenih naselbinah ter utrdbah ter njeni organiziranosti. Nove vidike so odprla tudi novejša arheološka izkopavanja, zlasti gomilnih nekropol v Novem mestu in Budinjaku. Pogrebni običaji, kot se odražajo v različnih načinih pokopavanja (žgani, skeletni) in v različnih velikostih in strukturiranosti gomil (gomile z majhnim ali večjim številom grobov, gomile s centralnim grobom ali brez, gomile z grobovi v koncentrično razporejenih krogih, gomile z različno usmerjenostjo grobov ipd.) kažejo na kompleksnost halštatske družbe, na njeno socialno razslojenost in verovanjske predstave. Hkrati pa se dolenjska halštatska skupina skozi grobne pridatke kaže kot izrazito vojaško organizirana družba v primerjavi z drugimi skupinami jugovzhodnoalpskega halštatskega kroga.
