In 1848, a number of trinkets, iron weapons and work tools were laid down in ritual fashion at the Iron Age cult and burial site at Col de Flam. Tools included axes, picks, knives and a few woodworking tools, such as a gouge. One iron pick has an inscription on its handle.

In 1848, during the ploughing of a field at Untercoldeflam farm, a rich collection of iron weapons and tools, as well as iron and bronze brooches and jewellery, was uncovered. The finds, dating from the 6th to the 2nd century BC, partly come from cremation graves and are partly associated with a burnt offering site.

The central metal component (boss) of a wooden shield from the late Iron Age (6th–2nd century BC) was found at Col de Flam. It served to protect the fist of the person holding the shield. It is an example of Celtic blacksmithing and either indicates the presence of Celtic warriors, probably mercenaries, or local copying of Gallic weapons. The wooden part of the shield has not been preserved.

Arrowheads bear witness to hunting in the high mountains, which was still practiced in the Middle Bronze Age. These two arrowheads from Lech Sant, an Alpine lake, on the Aschgleralm (Ladin Mastlé), together with other finds, indicate the significance of the location as a cult place where sacrificial burnt offerings were made. The colloquial name 'Heiliger See' (Holy Lake) and the legend of the submerged chapel in the lake keep the memory of pre-Christian mountain cults alive to this day.

This small, rounded clay vessel was excavated on Picberg along with a handful of calcined bone remnants from animal sacrifices (cow, sheep). This find was probably in connection with a depositing ritual after a sacrificial ceremony carried out on a mountain top. The discovery site and altitude point towards an Iron Age fire sacrifice site.

Fragments of several pitchers made of so-called 'Melaun ceramic' from the late Bronze Age were discovered at Lech Sant at Mastlé (Aschgleralm). These jugs feature girlands and small vertical borders going down the sides. They were principally used for religious rituals at cult sites or cremations as vessels for pouring special liquids.

Fragments of several 'classic' Laugen jugs (named after the discovery site near Brixen) were found on the Burgstall crest at 2400-2500 metres above sea level. They are assumed to be libation vessels that were deliberately smashed during cult acts. The weather-beaten shards of clay from the late Bronze Age are part of a series of discoveries from the Schlern plateau, which is assumed to have been a fire sacrifice site (1200-1000 B.C.).
