Article Synopsis
- Recent research in the southern Carpathian Basin has identified a large network of enclosed settlements from the later Bronze Age, particularly focusing on the Tisza Site Group (TSG).
- The study employs a multi-method approach, including satellite imagery and ground surveys, to analyze how these sites were organized and utilized.
- Findings suggest that the TSG shared a distinct cultural understanding of space, with different activities coexisting within the same enclosed areas, indicating a complex social structure and subsistence practices.
The burial of metals in hoards is a trademark phenomenon of prehistoric Europe that may be counterintuitive to perceptions of value nowadays. For the first time here, we establish detailed biographies of a large corpus of hoarded metal objects, providing new insights into how societies in the second millennium BC engaged with their convertible material wealth. We move beyond previous research on prehistoric hoarding commonly focussing on separate questions such as what was placed in hoards, who selected the objects, what were the origins of materials, and where and when they were buried.

- * Contrary to the belief that societal complexity declined during the Late Bronze Age (1600-1200 BC), research indicates an increase in settlement scale, complexity, and long-distance networks, supported by a settlement survey in the southern Pannonian Plain.
- * Climate change significantly influenced these settlements, leading to new forms of landscape use near water sources and the construction of large monuments, prompting a reevaluation of Late Bronze Age societies in the Carpathian
Background: Oxidative stress (OS) could cause various COVID-19 complications. Recently, we have developed the Pouvoir AntiOxydant Total (PAOT®) technology for reflecting the total antioxidant capacity (TAC) of biological samples. We aimed to investigate systemic oxidative stress status (OSS) and to evaluate the utility of PAOT® for assessing TAC during the recovery phase in critical COVID-19 patients in a rehabilitation facility.
