Descrizione
Fiavé, with the Pile Dwelling Museum, the Archaeological Nature Park and the archeological area known internationally and included in the “prehistoric pile-dwelling sites of the Alpine arch” UNESCO world heritage site, it constitutes a reference point of exceptional importance for the history of the oldest European agricultural communities.
The Museum tells the story of the various pile-dwelling settlements that followed one another along the shores of Lake Carera, a basin of glacial origin, between the late Neolithic and the Bronze Age. The excavations have brought to light the remains of huts built on the lake shore (3800 – 3600 BC), but also according to the classic model of the stilt house elevated above the water (approximately 1800 – 1500 BC). An evolution of this typology are the huts on poles anchored to a complex lattice structure lying along the shore and on the bottom of the lake (1500 – 1300 BC). In the last centuries of the 2nd millennium BC. the town moved to nearby Dos Gustinaci, where houses with stone foundations were found.
The exceptional state of conservation not only of the poles, but also of many other organic materials, makes these pile dwellings particularly fascinating, allowing us to penetrate aspects of the life of prehistoric communities generally unknown to archaeological research.
The museum displays a selection of the extraordinary objects discovered by archaeologists during their research, which arouse amazement due to their modernity. There are thousands of materials that have fallen into the water, accidentally or thrown at the time of the pile dwellings, precious evidence of considerable technical and construction knowledge and artisan skill.
