Bondár Mária: A badeni kultúra telepmaradványa Aparhant-Felső legelő lelőhelyen
Mária Bondár The settlement fragment of the Baden culture on the site Aparhant-Felső pasture Resume Localman Antal Csiszér, during his regular sitewalks, observes the sites and the findings that came out at the border of Aparhant. Thanks to his report János Odor in 1995 made a rescue excavation on the site stirred up by the local co-operative (fig. 25. 2). In the excavated one trench (10 x 5 m) five objects came out from the Baden culture. On the excavated 50 m 2 large surface, objects came out both from the early (fig. 1-8; fig. 9 1-7, 9; fig. 14. 1-2, 4-5, 7, 9-10; fig. 15. 1, 5-6, 10-11; fig. 16. 2; fig. 18. 9; fig. 20. 1, 4, 8) and late (fig. 9. 8, 10-11; fig. 1013.; fig. 16. 1, 3-7, 9; fig. 17. 3-8; fig. 18. 3-6, 10, 12; fig. 19. 1-3, 5-7) periods of the Baden culture. As a result of the former gethering of Antal Csiszér, we know the findings of the Kostolac culture too (fig. 24. 211). Among the findings of the early Baden culture we can define a new type of pot: from the point of its making technique and material it is a pot, from the point of its form and function it is rather a plate, so the author named it a pot-plate (fig. 21.4; fig. 8. 5; fig. 13. 7). According to the author the early Baden finds at Aparhant are later than Pári-Altacker. The finds can be best connected to Zlkovce settlement, but analogies can also be found to Tekovsky Hrádok and to a small extent to Cerveny Hrádok too. Cronologically this means that in the line of developpment created by V. Némejcová-Pavúková Aparhant can be dated after Zlkovce and before Cerveny Hrádok. The few characteristical findings of objects 3-4. can be dated to the classic period of the Baden culture, and its analogies can be found at sites Cerveny Hrádok and Nevidzany. Object 5. perserved the characteristic features of the late Baden culture, it can be placed in the horizon Palotabozsok, Pécs-Vasas, Hódmezővásárhely-Bodzáspart. The author states that the excavator probably did not find the pottery fragments of a very long developping process on the site. It is more likely that the minitious tipological system, the tipological developping line determined by the sites is exaggerated. 49
