摘要:Gustaf Kossinna is undoubtedly among the most influential archaeologists of the early 20th century. Although his methodology was followed by many scholars, the strongly nationalist direction of his studies led, following its instrumentalization by the nazi regime, to a negative evaluation of his work. The aim of this paper is to achieve a critical approach to Kossinna as a controversial figure of prehistoric studies by placing him in historical context as well as to assess his impact on the development of the archaeological discipline.
