According to some hypothesis it is nothing less than a renewal of the burial custom in use in the Hallstatt Age, altough there is certainly a hiatus in the practice. Since its expansion or rather reintroduction is contemporary with the Roman occupation, there are also opinions relating it to the activities of the Roman army or the resettled population. (Alzinger 1952, 8-; Barkóczi 1956, 84-; Fitz 1958, 13;). However, tumulus burials clearly appear in the Roman Age in regions where the natives are Celts. (Fig. 5). Some of the Pannonian tumulus burials certainly imitate Italian models (encircling stone walls, with entrance; mural decoration), the numerous luxury articles imported from Italy and Gaul found in the graves are also indicative of romanization. This tumulus type is mainly representative of Western Pannónia to the line of the Lake Balaton (the best exemplar is the tumulus of Nemesvámos-Baláca Likasdomb - Palágyi 1986, 274; Palágyi 1987-1988, 267). Those in Nord-East Pannónia are more modest, the ashes were scattered on the ground (Alsószentiván, Felsőcikola). Except for the imported goods, the grave finds are products of native Celtic potteries and this applies to the former, western group as well. (Bonis 1957, 81-). The group of the Nord-East Pannonian tumuli is marked by cart-burials, together with horses. Throughout Europe the habit of vehicle-burial can be traced back to the Hallstatt Age. In the La Tène Period and particulary in Early La Tène there are some specific territorial centres (Marne - Ardennes) (Joffroy-BretzMahler 1959; Flouest 1984, 61-). In the region of the Middle Rhine, in the area of the Hunsrück-Eifel culture, the habit of waggon-burial (4 wheels) and cart-burial (2 wheels) was flourishing for cca. 500 years from Hallstatt D to Late La Tène, LT D. (Haffner-Joachim 1984, 71-) The cart-burials in Northeastern England date to the 1 st c.B.C, 'but there are hints that the tradition started as early as с 400 B.C.' (Stead 1984, 40; STEAD 1979, 20-29) (Fig. 6). Vehicle-burials of the La Tène Period are known on our territory mainly in the central and North-eastern part of 10
