Search for: [Abstract = "The first stage of excavations at the Chotyniec hillfort in southeastern Poland \(8 km from today’s Polish\-Ukrainian border\), carried out in 2016–2019, has produced an assemblage of finds that link it to the forest\-steppe variant of the Scythian Cultural Circle. A cult area \(zolnik\) was investigated, discovering fragments of Greek wine amphorae, an abundance of weapons and personal metal accessories of Scythian provenance. Settlements with similar assemblages of finds located around the hillfort have been identified as a micro\-region of key importance for the interpretation of the cultural situation in the early Iron Age of a territory covering the regions of Volhynia and western Podolia – today in southeastern Poland and the adjoining areas of Ukraine. The article discusses the “eastern” groups\: Lezhnica, Cherepin\-Lagodiv and Western Podolian, in the context of the Chotyniec discoveries"]
