Presumably most of the finds come from the so-called pit-houses, where the Celts lived. The covered pits in a size of about two by three meters, served as outbuildings and were used as workshops. The Celts inhabited wooden houses have long since weathered and delivered today, hardly any useful Material for archaeologists.
