Abstract:
The study of the origin and dispersal of Neolithic cultures has been the subject of heated debate since the seminal work of Childe (1942). To what extent the dispersal process was influenced by environmental factors is still debated, one of the issues being whether climatic conditions influencing agricultural practices could have affected the dispersal route, “blocking” some of the Neolithic societies in front of ecological barriers. Data from Neolithic sites in SE Europe shows that a continuous stream of people and cultures flowed through the Danube’s Iron Gates towards Central Europe, while in the eastern part of Europe this process was delayed, people and cultures “moving” around the Carpathians and crossing it with a delay of ca. 1000 years. The causes of this delay are still unsolved, and in this context, the aim of this project is to investigate the environmental conditions and the possible constrains they have put on the spread of Neolithic populations across the Carpathian Mts. in the processes of neolithization in Central Europe. We will address this issue by providing a spatial reconstruction of climatic and environmental conditions during the neolithization of the Carpathians and use it in combination with absolutely dated Neolithic cultures in the greater Carpathian region to develop models for the neolithization, under a combination of environmental and cultural influences.
