| Description | This paper’s aim is to contribute to the discussion of the meanings of the terms as hoard, treasure, wealth deposition etc. used to describe deliberately concealed artefact deposits. This article discusses the question whether the deposition of metal and valuable objects of LM IB strata can be compared with the hoard/wealth depositions of continental Europe, whether they can support similar interpretations and can be included within the existing categories of European hoards or must be assigned to a separate and exceptional category. |
