Existing cultural mapping of the Early Iron Age in Southwest Germany supposes that the Upper Rhine was a main communication corridor. However, precise location of routes, questions of the infrastructure and distribution remain unanswered. This paper focuses on reconstructing pathways as a starting point for further research on infrastructure, cultural distances and cultural morphology. An empiric pathway model will be reconstructed, based on the location of cemeteries. Resulting in paths following river banks or pointing to river crossings on both sides of the river. Those river crossings are also identified using small finds from the Bronze Age onwards. The reconstructed pathways are compared to theoretical models in order to determine parameters and conditions for location of paths. Different parameters, based on “Least-Cost-Path” applications, are used to establish three theoretical models.
