Source: Wikipedia article Tartscher Bichl, history: "1999 - after the excavation work on Ganglegg, not so far away, had already been completed - a late La Tène Celtic sword was found on the Tartscher Bichl during an inspection by archaeologists, which was the reason for a small budget being made available by the public sector for test excavations. During these excavations in the Stocker pits, the collapsed remains of so-called "Rhaetian houses" immediately came to light. For this reason, the excavation time was extended so that a house could be fully excavated in one of the many pits scattered across the hill, which are particularly visible from the air. Tough, clayey moraine residues have accumulated in these pits, which were ideal for the underground floors of these multi-storey buildings. The excavation campaign made it possible to get an insight into the settlement activities of the early La Tène period (2nd half of the 5th century – 1st half of the 3rd century BC) in Vinschgau. From the excavation results of one of these pits it can be concluded that there may have been a settlement of at least 80 houses. This would give the legend of the town on the Tartscher Bichl a concrete historical background.”

Probably a "Villa Milantz", after the town on the Bichl from the poem.
