Abstract
	The most recent field researches in Friuli have demonstrated that at the beginning of the Early Bronze Age the landscape of the Upper Plain was largely shaped by kin groups settled in short-lasting hamlets. In order to assert their possession of the surrounding land, and to celebrate their ancestors, these small communities built a large number of round barrows of pebbles and earth, some of which have survived until the present day. About 1900 B.C. this landscape, dotted with tumuli, began to be developed with more substantial, longer-lasting settlements provided with defences of clayey earth. In the most ancient of these villages discovered so far, some burials were found inside the core of the rampart. This feature, as well as other – structural or ritual – details, indicates both the transition to a new way of living and the strong connection with the tradition of burial tumuli.
