Since the 1970’s, rich burials like those of Vix and Hochdorf have been analysed as the icons of a pan-regional phenomenon – the emergence of traditional states, which is largely underpinned by the impact of their interaction with Mediterranean societies. However, during the last two decades, there has been significant criticism of such an interpretative model. In the core of such a debate, this paper argues that the archaeological record provides evidence that ritual deposits (likewise and alongside other forms of gift-giving) constituted a significant part of what I name as ‘prestation economy’. In order to demonstrate that, this paper analyses the burials and their grave-goods from the regions of four Furstensitze, namely: Bourges, Châtillon-sur-Glâne, Mont Lassois, and Hohenasperg.
