Hunting Mammoths after the Gravettian – The lithic industry at Langmannersdorf
Project Wear
The WEAR project is developing integrative methods to analyse and predict use-related shape transformation of Neolithic stone tools from Central Europe through experimental archaeology and computational modelling
A Glimpse at Raw Material Economy and Production of Chipped Stones at the Neolithic (Starčevo) Site of Svinjarička Čuka, South Serbia
In this contribution, we present new data from the multi-layered Starčevo site of Svinjarička Čuka in southern Serbia, highlighting its key role in reconstructing processes involved in the dispersal of the Neolithic way of life from Anatolia into Central Europe from the perspective of the chipped stone assemblage. This case study explores factors such as deliberate choices of raw material procurement and the occasional resilience to innovations s…
Fresh light on Balkan prehistory
Searching for the Neolithic along the Vardar-Morava River corridor revealed several new sites in a previously underexplored region. Multidisciplinary investigations at Svinjarička Čuka identified Neolithic and Bronze Age occupation. Highlights presented here demonstrate the potential of this new key site for enriching our understanding of the prehistory of the Balkans
Barriers and facilitators to viral hepatitis testing in Uzbekistan
A multi-pronged approach is recommended to achieve VH testing goals among the general population, focusing on raising awareness and health literacy and creating an enabling environment that ensures easy accessibility and minimizing VH testing-associated costs
Unveiling Neolithic Economic Behavior
The expansion of the Neolithic way of life triggered the most profound changes in peoples’ socioeconomic behaviors, including how critical resources for everyday life were managed. Recent research spearheaded by ancient DNA analysis has greatly contributed to our understanding of the main direction of Neolithisation spreading from western Anatolia into central Europe. Due to the diverse processes involved in Neolithisation, which resulted in a hi…
Kalba
This project investigates the prehistoric coastal site of Kalba on the Gulf of Oman in the context of exchange networks between maritime waterways and land-based caravan routes on the south-eastern Arabian Peninsula. In addition to favourable environmental conditions, raw-material procurement strategies were important for the economy of this multi-crafting community
New Multi-disciplinary Data from the Neolithic in Serbia. The 2019 and 2021 Excavations at Svinjarička Čuka
The excavations at SvinjariÄ ka Ä uka in the South Morava Valley in Serbia are presented with new primary data from the field and related material and scientific analyses. Newly recovered architectural remains from the classical StarÄ evo period revealed a variety of domestic features, so far belonging to an earlier and later occupation phase at the river terrace dating between 5700/5600 and 5500 BC. Details of the stratigraphy and certain materi…
Ressourcen der Neandertaler im Burgenland (Österreich). Die Csaterberge bei Kohfidisch als Limnosilizit-Rohmaterialquelle vom Mittelpaläolithikum bis in die Kupferzeit
In diesem Artikel werden Belege fÃ1⁄4r eine Nutzung der lithischen Ressourcen (Opalit/Limnosilizit) der Csaterberge vom Mittelpaläolithikum Ã1⁄4ber das Jungpaläolithikum und das Neolithikum bis in die Kupferzeit angefÃ1⁄4hrt. Bisher ist eine Verbreitung dieses Rohmaterials in einem Umkreis von etwa 100 km nachgewiesen. Die Csaterberge sind somit (gemeinsam mit dem Becken von Rein in der Steiermark) zu den beiden wichtigsten prähistorisch genutzte…
From near and far
The focus of this paper are the stone tools of Çukuriçi Höyük, a prehistoric site situated at the central Aegean coast of Anatolia. The settlement was inhabited from the Neolithic, through the Late Chalcolithic and Early Bronze Age 1 periods, a period lasting from the early 7th to the early 3rd millennium BCE. A long-term interdisciplinary study of the excavated lithics with different scientific methods on various stone materials (thin section an…
Kammern-Grubgraben revisited - First results from renewed investigations at a well-known LGM site in east Austria
Neue Einblicke in das Gravettien von Willendorf II. Die Steinartefakte der Grabung 1993
The well-dated stratigraphic sequence of Willendorf II is a reference site for the Upper Palaeolithic in general and the Gravettian in particular. In 1993, a joint team from the Institut Royal des Sciences Naturelles de Belgique (Brussels, Belgium) and the University of Vienna carried out excavations at this loess site in the Danube Valley known since the end of the 19th century. During the excavation season, the team recovered 391 artefacts, the…
Neue Einblicke in die entwickelte Phase der Neolithisierung auf dem Zentralbalkan. Erste Ausgrabungen in Svinjarička Čuka 2018
This article discusses recent findings from the newly identified archaeological site of SvinjariÄ ka Ä uka, situated next to the Southern Morava River in southern Serbia. We will present the latest results from the excavation, material studies, bioarchaeological analyses and contextualised radiocarbon data, focusing on the StarÄ evo Neolithic horizon within the context of the new NEOTECH project. The interdisciplinary approach aims to shed light …
Neu entdeckte Radiolaritabbaue in Wien. Bedeutung und Nutzung der St. Veiter Klippenzone im Neolithikum
Within the framework of the project â BergbauLandschaftWienâ extensive research concerning Neolithic mining activities in the St. Veit Klippen Belt was undertaken between 2016 and 2018 in Vienna and the immediate catchment area. These investigations included surveys, archival research and the recording as well as re-evaluation of old collections, and a small-scale excavation at the Gemeindeberg in Vienna. An especially promising area is the natur…
Geochemical Sourcing of Lithic Raw Materials from Secondary Deposits in South Serbia. Implications for Early Neolithic Resource Management Strategies
The valleys of the South Morava River and its tributaries in the region of Pusta Reka around the cities of Leskovac and Lebane in southern Serbia are notable for the high density of early prehistoric settlements identified archaeologically. The area represents a link between the Mediterranean and the (northern) Balkans and is therefore of key importance for understanding the processes of Neolithisation in south-eastern and central Europe, which c…
Appendix 1. Supplementary LA-ICP-MS data

The Gravettian lithic industry at Krems-Wachtberg (Austria)
Geochemical Sourcing of Flint Artifacts from Western Belgium and the German Rhineland
Identifying the geological and geographical origin of lithic raw materials is critical to effectively address prehistoric forager raw material economies and mobility strategies. Currently, Paleolithic archaeology in Belgium lacks a systematic sourcing strategy to effectively substantiate detailed interpretations of prehistoric hunter‐gatherer behavioral change across time and space. This pilot study evaluates the potential to “fingerprint” flint …
The Application of the Multi-Layered Chert Sourcing Approach (MLA) for the Characterisation and Differentiation of ‘Chocolate Silicites’ from the Holy Cross Mountains, South-Central Poland
Chocolate silicites from the Świętokrzyskie (Holy Cross) Mountains in south-central Poland were widely used for stone tool production from Middle Palaeolithic times to the Early Iron Age. Their presence extends beyond Poland into lithic assemblages from the Czech Republic, Slovakia, Hungary and eastern Austria. Outcrops of this material are situated within a narrow strip of Mesozoic (Upper Jurassic) sediments at the northeastern footslopes of the…

Did prehistoric foragers behave in an economically irrational manner? Raw material availability and technological organisation at the early Gravettian site of Willendorf II (Austria)
Genesis, Provenance and Classification of Rocks within the Chert Group in Central Europe
Raw material determination of prehistoric stone tools is a necessary analytical process towards a fuller understanding of prehistoric resource management. However, archaeologists face a terminological predicament when analysing raw material types present within lithic assemblages. This is chiefly due to the lack of a commonly accepted classification system, further exacerbated when working on an international scale. The principle reason for this …

Adaptation or disintegration? Changes in the kulama initiation and increase ritual of Melville and Bathurst Islands, Northern Territory of Australia
During a period of almost sixty yean from 1912–1969 there have been several observers of this ritual. In this paper Spencer's account of a kulama in 1912 is examined in detail to determine the nature of the ritual activities, for which a model of sacrifice is suggested. The modifications recorded in later accounts are then considered against this background. Although the more recent rituals lack the coherency of that of 1912, the kulama persists …
