Abstract

The Palù di Livenza wetland lies at the foot of the Cansiglio plateau in the Pordenone area in north-east Italy. It preserves a Neolithic pile-dwelling settlement. Thanks to the richness of deposits, Palù di Livenza is inscribed on the World Heritage List of UNESCO in the transnational serial property ‟Prehistoric pile-dwellings around the Alps” together with other 18 northern Italian localities. The latest investigations, carried out at the Sector 3 since 2013, have revealed a well-preserved stratigraphic sequence with three main phases of pile-dwellings ranging between the second half of the 5th and the first half of the 4th millennium cal BC. The paper presents the remains of a combustion feature, probably a hearth plaster plate, found during the last excavations campaigns in the abandonment levels attributed to the Late Neolithic phase.
