The study is based on field walking around Roman fortresses from 1997-2001, material of older excavations, and finds in museum deposits. A report on finds from the later Hallstatt to the Medieval Period exists [transactions 18th Limes-Congress Amman 2000, BAR 1084 (2002) 673-684]. Now, the finds from the Palaeolithic until the Middle Hallstatt Period are presented and dealt with in their cultural-historical milieu. Main observations are a general expansion of settlement and increasing numbers of sites from the Neolithic until the Hallstatt Period, interrupted only by a deep break in the Early Bronze Age with its completely different settlement pattern. The Neolithic is already remarkable for some particularly substantial sites. In the Aeneolithic, there were not only large tell settlements, but also many small sites. The Early Bronze Age had a fundamentally different organization with a changed economy, probably with intensified husbandry because of a dry-cool climate. During the Late Bronze Age, the first settlement hierarchies emerged, while the Hallstatt Period brought larger settlement clusters with �central places�, the road network of which already laid down the present one.
