This paper presents the most relevant updates related to the archaeological investigations carried out in the proto-historic settlement of Bostel (municipality of Rotzo, Vicenza – Italy) during the years 2017-2019. In particular, it discusses the results of the excavations in sector D and G, and the data of the first radiocarbon dates ever performed in the site. The researches revealed the existence of one new house unit (in sector G) and helped in understanding the planimetry of the archaeological remains in sector D, especially with regards to the domestic building and the small, squared structure in limestone plates. Moreover, the 14C analysis shed new light on the time-span of the human presence in the area, evidencing a sporadic occupation at the beginning of the Iron Age and backdating the permanent settlement at least to the mid V century BC.

Abstract
This paper presents the most relevant updates related to the archaeological investigations carried out in the proto-historic settlement of Bostel (municipality of Rotzo, Vicenza – Italy) during the years 2017-2019. In particular, it discusses the results of the excavations in sector D and G, and the data of the first radiocarbon dates ever performed in the site. The researches revealed the existence of one new house unit (in sector G) and helped in understanding the planimetry of the archaeological remains in sector D, especially with regards to the domestic building and the small, squared structure in limestone plates. Moreover, the 14C analysis shed new light on the time-span of the human presence in the area, evidencing a sporadic occupation at the beginning of the Iron Age and backdating the permanent settlement at least to the mid V century BC.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
