Stratigraphy and Chronology

During two different excavation projects at RH-5, the one in the 1980s and the emergency one in 2004-2005, numerous trenches were opened. If in the first case they were opened in order to define the strategy to adopt for the excavation of the settlement, in the second they were necessary mainly to intercept possible residual graves that had escaped the past investigations and obtain a complete vision of the stratigraphic progression of the village, since soon afterwards it would be destroyed (Figures 4.1 and 4.2). In the middle part the deposit the site has an east/south-east slope and a maximum
