[ISBN: 9789053454985].In 1990, during the construction of the new residential area Waterdael I in Someren, a large Iron Age urnfield-or burial ground-was discovered by chance by three amateur archaeologists. Following this discovery, intensive archaeological research was conducted for approximately 25 years around the village center of Someren, which is situated on a coversand ridge between the rivers Kleine Aa and Aa. In total, some 35 hectares of archaeological cultural landscape were investigated by archaeologists, students, and volunteers-an enormous area by both Dutch and international standards. The research provides a coherent picture of agrarian societies and human settlement spanning from prehistory well into the Middle Ages (roughly from 800 BC to AD 1250).
