About this person
Grimm worked on various periods, but mainly in central Germany - the names of two important Neolithic archaeological cultures in the area, the Baalberge group and the Salzmünde group derive from him. His comprehensive excavations at Hohenrode and Tilleda were important milestones in the history of German archaeology.
