Since February 2018, the results of archaeological excavations in the Iron Age settlement of Pfaffenhofen-Hörtenberg (Tyrol) have been scientifically evaluated at the Bavarian Academy of Sciences with funding from the DFG. The project, which has been granted funding for three years (February 2018 – January 2021), includes the evaluation of the building features and the extensive finds, as well as a study of the development of the settlement cluster in the Telfs valley basin during the Late Iron Age (5th century B.C. – around the birth of Christ). The archaeological results are supplemented by natural-scientific investigations of several disciplines: archaeozoology, archaeobotany, anthracology, dendrochronology, isotopy (animal bones), raster electron microscopy (non-ferrous metal finds) and slag analyses.After two years, the following work is completed: In-depth description of the building features, evaluation of the metal finds, examination of the animal bones, evaluation of the slag, drawings of all non-ceramic finds and about two thirds of the pottery, as well as the digitalisation of the excavation plans. The material analyses of the non-ferrous metal finds have been carried out, but have not yet been conclusively evaluated. The results of the individual project areas so far provide detailed and often exceptional information on the structure and economy of an Iron Age settlement, on house building and craftsmanship, and on the diet of the inhabitants. These insights have raised new questions, which will be investigated in the course of additional botanical investigations, further isotope analyses of animal remains, and an archaeometallurgical assessment of the stone artefacts.The botanical evaluation of the soil samples revealed an unexpectedly high number of plant remains of such extraordinary diversity that their full evaluation can only be completed in the third year of the project. The preliminary results indicate that fundamental insights into the agriculture and environment of the entire Central Alpine region during the Late Iron Age can be expected. For the dendrochronological dating of the charred building timber, additional 14C-data of tree-ring series are necessary to substantiate the settlement stratigraphy with absolute data.Since the initial application was submitted, a wealth of new information has become available on new sites in the Telfs Basin, which must be critically examined and incorporated into the intended settlement archaeological study. For the comprehensive archaeological evaluation, including the additional information from the natural-scientific contributions, an 18-month extension of the position of the main archaeological researcher is being applied for. During this time, the production of a complete, print-ready manuscript is realistic, thereby ensuring that the unique archaeological features of Pfaffenhofen-Hörtenberg will be presented to the scientific community in the form of a comprehensive publication.

自 2018 年 2 月起，在 DFG 的资助下，巴伐利亚科学院对普法芬霍芬-霍尔滕贝格（蒂罗尔州）铁器时代定居点的考古发掘结果进行了科学评估，该项目已获得为期三年的资助（2 月）。 2018 年 – 2021 年 1 月），包括对建筑特征和广泛发现的评估，以及对泰尔夫斯山谷聚落群发展的研究铁器时代晚期（公元前 5 世纪 - 基督诞生前后）的盆地考古结果得到了多个学科的自然科学研究的补充：考古动物学、考古植物学、炭疽学、树木年代学、同位素（动物骨骼）、光栅电子显微镜（有色金属发现）和矿渣分析。两年后，完成以下工作：深入描述建筑特征，评估金属对发现的动物骨骼进行检查，对矿渣进行评估，对所有非陶瓷发现物和约三分之二的陶器进行绘图，并对挖掘计划进行数字化。对有色金属发现物进行了材料分析。已进行，但尚未得到最终评估，迄今为止，各个项目区域的结果提供了有关铁器时代定居点的结构和经济、房屋建筑和工艺以及居民饮食的详细且通常是特殊的信息。 。这些见解提出了新的问题，这些问题将在额外的植物学调查、对动物遗骸的进一步同位素分析以及对石器文物的考古冶金评估的过程中进行调查。对土壤样本的植物学评估显示，植物遗骸的数量出人意料地多如此非凡的多样性，他们的全面评估只能在项目的第三年完成。初步结果表明，可以对铁器时代晚期整个中阿尔卑斯地区的农业和环境有基本的了解。对烧焦的建筑木材进行树木年代测定，需要额外的树木年轮系列 14C 数据，以用绝对数据证实沉降地层学。自提交最初申请以来，泰尔夫斯盆地的新地点已提供大量新信息，必须对其进行严格审查并纳入预期的聚落考古研究中，以进行全面的考古评估，包括来自自然科学贡献的附加信息，将主要考古的地位延长 18 个月。在此期间，制作一份完整的、可供印刷的手稿是现实的，从而确保普法芬霍芬-霍滕贝格独特的考古特征将以综合出版物的形式呈现给科学界。
