Violence and warfare in Bronze Age in "barbarian Europe”, to use an expression by Jaques Briard, can be defined as a "fashion” since the mid-2000s.

The area in question was also penetrated by the Dacians from their enclaves situated on the upper Dniester and in eastern Slovakia, in the 1 st and early 2 nd century AD (LUŠTIKOVÁ 2007). Groups of the Przeworsk culture population were flooding from the north, heading up the San river and towards the upper Tisa basin (GODŁOWSKI 1985, 82-84, Fig. It should be assumed that the upper San area was inhabited in the discussed period by the representatives of various cultural traditions.
