Ormož ranks among the most important archaeological sites in Slovenia. The fortified settlement from the Late Bronze and Early Iron Age extended over the area where the town stands today. It developed on a high-lying terrace on the left bank of the river Drava, which forms a broad bend right at the foothills. This site was intentionally selected, since towards the river it was protected by a steep slope, and to the east and west by relatively deep natural dykes. In the present monograph a survey is given of the results of the excavations which were carried out in Ormož during the period from 1974 to 1981.
Ormož sodi med najpomembnejša arheološka najdišča v Sloveniji. Utrjeno naselje iz pozne bronaste in starejše železne dobe se je raztezalo na območju, kjer stoji danes mesto. Zraslo je na visoki terasi na levem bregu Drave, ki dela prav pod njegovim vznožjem širok zavoj. Prostor je bil premišljeno izbran, saj ga je proti reki varovala strma ježa, na vzhodu in zahodu pa razmeroma globoka naravna jarka. V pričujoči monografiji so predstavljeni rezultati izkopavanj, ki so v Ormožu potekala med letoma 1974 in 1981: fortifikacijski sistemi, predvsem mogočen okop, ki je na severni strani varoval naselje ter objekti v notranjosti (ognjišča, kurišča, vodnjake in shrambne jame, okoli katerih se je v prazgodovini odvijalo življenje).
