- Abstract
The book "Germanen" from the perspective of archaeology by Heiko Steuer presents new theses on an old topic. The author relies exclusively on archaeological sources to develop a narrative about the first centuries around and after the birth of Christ in Central Europe and southern Northern Europe. The reviewer criticizes that the Roman written sources are not sufficiently taken into account. The book covers various aspects such as landscape, settlement, economy, religion, and weapons, but lacks meaningful illustrations. The work concludes with the author's personal consequences and interpretations, as well as an extensive index.
