The longknown, spectacular tumulus fields have been popular destinations for aerial archeological research since its beginnings. Similarly, the wellpreserved groups of burial mounds in the forests seemed to be excellent test areas for the ALSbased explorations launched in the late 2000s, too. The aerial photography not only expands our knowledge about the topography of known tumulus fields, but it also increases the number of registered remains belonging to previously not detected mounds. Although both the identification of their structure and the dating of the latter features are highly questionable, it can be stated, that the extent and the number of the tumulus necropolises of the Eastern Hallstatt culture are significantly larger than it was previously assumed.
