During HaA-HaB, many settlements were established in Silesia and in
the central part of Poland, and their stability seems to be
confirmed by the existence of regional groups and subgroups, by
long-lasting colonies, and by long-used burial grounds, located at
large settlements. At the end of HaB, many pre-Scythian elements
occurred in this area, only partly influenced by the Cimmerians .
During that period the peoples living north of the Carpathian and
Sudeten Mountains remained very dependent on the productive and
cultural circle south of the Carpathians, with which they
maintained strong connections . The Lusatian settlement zone ,
apart from its increasing internal stability, also tended to extend
its range . A partition of the Lusatian Culture, which had appeared
earlier , became more pronounced under the strong influence of the
East Hallstatt cultural and productive center in the eastern Alpine
region , and the so-called amber route . The eastern zone of the
Lusatian Culture remained under the influence of the Carpathian
center, while the western zone was strongly influenced by the
pre-Celtic (Bylanska or Horakowska) and northern Illyrian (Calon
denberian) cultures. In HaD2' ca. 520-500 B.C., this latter area
was the site of an armed incursion of Scythian groups coming from
the east through the Karpacka Valley. The most characteristic
features of the western zone include its own varieties of more
general Hallstatt traits , such as fortified settlements (which
date from HaA in the Lusatian Culture) , production of iron (done
domestically since HaD), and decorated pottery.
