After older research (1928) and numerous recent incursions, the Fedeleşeni-Dealul Cânepăriei settlement continues to arouse the interest of specialists, especially due to the unprecedented discoveries made over time. It is precisely these recent pieces of information, the most interesting of which come from the excavation notebook of I. Nestor, unpublished until 2015, that have led to a new campaign of non-invasive investigations in this settlement. The main purpose was to assess the degree of site preservation and to clarify certain planimetric aspects. LiDAR measurements and magnetometer surveys have provided new data about the internal spatial organization and extent of the site. From the analysis of the altitudinal model, it seems that the site was much larger than it is preserved today, and the internal organization is much more complex. Elements of fortification/delimitation, as well as other types of structures (dwellings, pits, ovens), have been documented, especially in the plateau area of the site. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
