****GK: What this seems to say is that the area
"between the Celts and the Germans" was progressively
"Germanized" as a result of influence from
Jastorf(north) and Przeworsk (east). It says nothing
about a "mixture of Elbe and Przeworsk" in the area of
the Jastorf culture proper, only in this "middle"
area. It's a very short passage. Perhaps you could
translate it?****
