This paper summarizes the results of investigations carried out by the University of Bologna in sector B part of the Bronze Age settlement of Mursia (Pantelleria). Main focus are the characters of structural dynamics of this part of the settlement that start in the late phases of Early Bronze Age with a true project of building planning made of oval elongated sunken huts, located in several parallel rows. Afterwards most of the huts are involved in several structural changes like the mere remaking of floors, or the abandonment of the structure or a different reorganization of space with new features. The sequence ends with a reorganization of the settlement marked by a latter planning scheme made of large oval huts with floor at the surface. The paper as well acts as general introduction for the following papers concerned with the investigations carried out in single huts or contexts and finds in sector B.Downloads
