Structurile de habitat ale geţilor timpurii din spaţiul carpato-nistrean (mijlocul sec. VII – sec. V a.Chr.) în contextul pei- sajului cultural arheologic (cu privire la originea culturii getice)
Living structures of early Getae in the Carpatho-Nistrean space (middle of VII-V centuries BC) in the context of the cul- tural landscape (about the origin of the Getian culture)

Summary/Abstract: The previous archaeological culture that preceded the Getian era is represented by the Basarabi-Şoldăneşti massive, showing links of relationships between these successive structures. Basarabi-Şoldăneşti has a specific placement of sites in lower places and plains. The settlements were placed on lower terraces, and life in them went on according to some internal laws and innovative appearances of latent evolution. At some point in the middle of the VII century BC, the region sees serious changes in the cultural and archaeological landscape. In nature, we see a change in climate, which cools down significantly. The settlements on lower grounds disappear, the population moves up to higher grounds. Fortifications, as habitat structures, begin to appear. In the anthropogenic aspect, we can see intrusive objects appearing in the region. On the North West shoreline, Greek colony cities appear, emerge with representatives of the most performant culture of the era. Some waves of nomadic Scythians come through from the east. The plain between the Danube and the Carpathians is strongly impacted by the Illyrian factors. The relationships between locals and intruders were different but overall peaceful, integrating various cultural interferences. In our opinion, the changes of the cultural archaeological landscape from the region led to the main circumstances that provoked the known cultural transformations at the end of the Hallstatt era and the appearance of the early Getian culture.
