The present stratigraphic analysis of the in situ settlement remains was based on the documentation of the habitation area at Liptovská Mara IV -Vlašky excavated in 1972 and 1998. It was inhabited from the end of the Early La Tène Period to the end of the Early Roman Period. The main concept of the article uses a separate display of various attributes of selected archaeological remains in GIS environment. Also the previous interpretation and reconstruction of the settlement was derived from horizontal relationships of stones and postholes. Exposed settlement remains were analysed and evaluated in four separate clusters represented by stone and posthole concentrations. The clusters could have been defined as specific areas of everyday activities – outside and inside movement, storing, rest area, food preparation, production activities. The stone pavement with a noticeably low density of the settlement garbage (pottery, bones, daub) indicates the areas of an intense movement (such as roads and sidewalks) and correlation of both components (paving and garbage) points to the original purpose of the particular area (communication, roofed storage and production areas). In the previous analysis (Benediková 1999) were the uncovered stone structures at Liptovská Mara IV -Vlašky attributed to one period habitation area dated to the Late La Tène Period (LTD ) with the possibility of the settlement duration up to the beginning of the 1st century AD (B1a stage of the Roman Period). However, the GIS based analysis, presented in this article, revealed a possible superposition of the structures at the site. In cluster 1, a partial superposition of the house with oven, built above an earlier house with a different orientation, and at the same time – below a structure in its north-western surroundings – is possible. This superposition was not recognizable by bare eye in field and was neither revealed in previous interpretation. In cluster 3, the earlier structures were later overlaid by a stone-paved road – both elements initially seemed to belong to chronologically and strati graphically monolithic layer. As shown, using GIS contributed to definition of other possible variants of reconstruction of the site at Vlašky. The chosen approach has proven beneficial also by the comparison with the other selected sites from the Bronze Age to the Early Roman Period in Europe that used stone as one of the best accessible raw materials.
