The book begins with an introductive theoretical chapter, which provide the framework for the discussion regarding the ethnic and cultural transformations experienced by the communities from Transylvania during the Late Iron Age. From this perspective, human mobility played an important role in the ways in which collective identities were built and negotiated during the 'Scythian: 'Celtic' or 'Dacian' horizon. Among many other things, the strategies through which different communities chose to model the profane and the sacred landscape were also directly connected with the expression of collective identity constructs.
