Excavations confirmed that the group of burial mounds in the Gießübel / Talhau area was apparently built in the late Iron Age on the remains of a recently abandoned settlement, which in turn is to be regarded as an outlying settlement of the Heuneburg, 400 meters away. This means that the entire settlement area in the Heuneburg area is significantly larger than originally assumed.
