The Lusatian culture existed in the later Bronze Age and early Iron Age (1300–500 BC) in most of what is now Poland and parts of the Czech Republic, Slovakia, eastern Germany and western Ukraine. It covers the Periods Montelius III (early Lusatian culture) to V of the Northern European chronological scheme.[1] It has been associated or closely linked with the Nordic Bronze Age.[2] Hallstatt influences can also be seen particularly in ornaments (fibulae, pins) and weapons.
