All the World’s a Stage”
Several earthworks were constructed over the course of a millennium as outstanding joint achievements on a large Neolithic settlement site in north-western Gäuboden. An enclosure of the Linienbandkeramik was replaced by a Middle Neolithic complex, which was followed by multi-phase ditch rings of the Münchshöfen culture. The ditch systems on both sides of the middle course of the Pfatter River were rather of a short-lived and transient character. …
The Hascherkeller rectangular farmstead and its implications for Hallstatt social complexity
Enclosed rectangular farmsteads from the Hallstatt period in Central Europe are often cast as the seats of high-status farmers, whose land and social standing could be inherited and consolidated. Excavations at Landshut-Hascherkeller in Bavaria reveal the developmental trajectory of one such site through the stratigraphic disentanglement of its numerous ditches. Here, the authors argue that the coalescence of two rectangular farmsteads into a lar…
A contribution to research on the knapped lithic assemblage from the Late Neolithic site of Altheim in Lower Bavaria
The lithic artefacts from Altheim, being regarded as essential for the interpretation of the site, have for a verylong time attracted attention. Here we concentrate on the discoveries made during the excavation of sections of ditches in 2013-2020. Certain earlier observations were confirmed by the latest excavations, namely the high proportion of arrowheads among the flaked stone tools. A large number of the arrowheads were burnt. Many of them ha…
Hallstatt Period Rectangular Farmsteads in the Old Bavarian Loess Landscape
In the occasionally lively debate about the social structure of the Central European Early Iron Age, the Herrenhof as the presumed seat of a high-status farmer now also plays a role. A rectangular farmstead of this type is the famous Hascherkeller site on the northern outskirts of Landshut. The first magnetic prospection ever conducted at such an archaeological structure was carried out here in 1978. The site became widely known for its distincti…
Archaeobotanical and palaeoenvironmental analyses from the easternmost Early Neolithic sites at Kamyane-Zavallia (Ukraine) and Nicolaevca V (Moldova)
Recent archaeological excavations at two Early Neolithic settlements at Kamyane-Zavallia (Ukraine) and Nicolaevca V (Moldova) have provided new plant assemblages. The sites belong to the Linearbandkeramik culture (LBK) and represent its easternmost settlements. In these regions, charred plant macro-remains are still very rarely sampled for and investigated, so these results may shed light on the plant-based economy of the first farmers of this ar…

Aspects of a Bandkeramik settlement near Olteni in Transylvania
In Transylvania, settlements of the Transdanubian Linienbandkeramik (LBK) are predominantly found in the Braşov Depression. Excavations at the LBK settlement of Olteni, located on the right bank of the Olt River, brought to light the fragmented remains of at least two ground plans of Early Neolithic longhouses. These are the first convincing evidence of such structures in Romania. The pottery allows dating the site to a later Notenkopf phase of t…
The Early Neolithic Cultural Transformation in the Targowisko Settlement Region, SE Poland
The aim of the article is to characterize the early Neolithic settlement region of Targowisko in SE Poland. It is located on the northern edge of the Western Carpathians, 30 km east of Krakow. It functioned during the development of the entire Linear Pottery culture (LBK) and the subsequent Malice culture (MC), in the period from 5300 to 4500 BC. The focus was on the cultural transformation at the turn of the 6 th to the 5 th millennium BC. Cases…
Lithic industry of two Linearbandkeramik sites in Moldova (Nicolaevca V and Ţâra II)
The two Linear Pottery culture lithic complexes presented in this paper came from northern Moldova. The Nicolaevca V assemblage was gathered from excavations of a small LBK dwelling, while the Ţâra II collection came from an eight-shaped pit. There was a “deposit” of objects suitable for knapping found in Nicolaevca V. This complex reflects flake-oriented expedient knapping. The Ţâra II complex represents a complicated sequence for obtaining regu…
Culture transformation in Targowisko microregion. Trends of changes inside Danubian farmers
The aim of this article is to deepen the discussion on the nature and mechanisms of culture change based on the analysis of newly acquired materials from the Targowisko settlement region. Three groups of materials were acquired (from narrow time horizons) related to the single-phase relics of Linienbandkeramik (Brzezie, site 40 and Targowisko, site 16) and Malice culture houses (Targowisko, site 14-15). The absolute chronology of the beginning of…
The environmental context of Early Neolithic cultural transformation in the Targowisko settlement region
The aim of this article is to provide information on environmental changes in the Targowisko region in the Early Neolithic as a natural response to settlement and economic activity of the human population in that area. The discussion is based on lithological, geochemical, and palynological analyses, as well as the analysis of Cladocera within strata inside the TRG (Targowisko) core, located in a small wetland in the immediate vicinity of the east…
Kozachyi Yar 1
In Kozavchyn on the Southern Bug, an Early Copper Age settlement surrounded by trenches was explored by means of field surveys and magnetic prospection. In addition to the enclosing trenches, the magnetogram revealed a palisade trench and remains of pits and burnt houses, which covered a contiguous area with archaeological findings of almost 4 ha situated on a spur with the field name “Kozachyi Yar”. The settlement belongs to the Trypillia BI loc…
Raptus Sabinae?” complemented
A fragmented human cranial calotte was discovered in a Bandkeramik (LBK) settlement context at Rovantsi in Volhynia (UA). The female calvarium of a mature woman with an age of about 45-50 years was uncovered in the deepest part of a settlement pit. It can be dated to round about 5,250 BC. PCR-based molecular genetic analyses were successfully performed on these extremely rare skeletal remains from the Early Neolithic of Ukraine. The female family…

Hollenstedt 2. Eine bandkeramische Siedlung an der mittleren Leine
Auf der in den späten Zwanzigerjahren des letzten Jahrhunderts entdeckten bandkeramischen Siedlungsstelle Hollenstedt, „Salzberg“, wurde im Rahmen einer geophysikalischen Prospektion ein Erdwerk des 52./51. Jahrhunderts v. Chr. festgestellt. Es besteht aus einem halbkreisförmigen, breiten Graben und einem auf der Innenseite parallel verlaufenden mutmaßlichen Palisadengräbchen. Die Lage eines Walles ist für den weitgehend befundfreien Bereich zwis…

The earthworks at Altheim
In 2012, fi eldwork recommenced at the Altheim earthwork, discovered more than a century ago. The investigation in its immediate environs revealed a second ditched enclosure from the Altheim period, south-east of the previously known structure. The two enclosures are spatially related to one another. It was found that several decimetres of soil have been eroded during the last hundred years in the area of the north earthwork; the very substance o…
Die jungneolithischen Erdwerke von Altheim
Die Geländearbeiten an dem vor einem Jahrhundert entdeckten Erdwerk von Altheim wurden im Jahre 2012 wieder aufgenommen. Im Verlauf dieser Untersuchungen konnte nahe der altbekannten Einhegung im Südosten der Nachweis eines zweiten altheimzeitlichen Grabenwerkes erbracht werden. Beide Anlagen sind räumlich aufeinander bezogen. Im Bereich des nördlichen Grabenwerkes wurde ein Bodenabtrag von mehreren Dezimetern während des letzten Jahrhunderts beo…
Zwei runde Spondylusklappen aus der bandkeramischen Siedlung von Rovancì in Wolhynien. Ein Beitrag zu Tausch und Status im frühen Neolithikum
On the Bandkeramik (LBK) settlement of Rovancì in Volhynia two round valves of Spondylus gaederopus were discovered during a rescue excavation carried out in 2009. In the upper part of each of the artefacts two artificial holes with traces of suspension (grooves) can be observed. The two medallions were unearthed in the left longpit of an LBK longhouse. The find might be interpreted as depot or cenotaph. It substantially increases the extent of t…
Zur Bandkeramik zwischen Pruth und Südlichem Bug
Der allgemeine Kenntnisstand zur Bandkeramik (LBK) ist in den Gebieten östlich der Karpaten noch vergleichsweise gering. Es erschien daher Erfolg versprechend, ausgewählte Siedlungen in der westlichen Ukraine und in Moldawien zu erkunden. Dabei konzentrierten sich unsere Untersuchungen vornehmlich auf die Frage, ob das vollständige neolithische Kulturpaket auch die östlichsten Verbreitungsgebiete der Bandkeramik erreichte. Insbesondere sollte gek…
Zu den östlichsten Siedlungen der frühen Bandkeramik
Als östlichste bekannte Siedlung der frühen Bandkeramik galt bislang eine Fundstelle am südlichen Stadtrand von Rìvne in der westlichen Ukraine. Inzwischen treten zwei weitere Plätze aus der Anfangsphase der bandkeramischen Kultur in Wolhynien hinzu (Mežirìč, Josipìvka). Damit verschiebt sich die Grenze der frühbandkeramischen Ökumene weiter nach Osten. Für die spätere Bandkeramik ist in besser beobachteten Gebieten Wolhyniens ein dichtes, an kle…
Anthropogenic pedogenesis of Chernozems in Germany? – A critical review
Anthropogene Sckwarzerdegenese in Mitteleuropa? Ein Beitrag zur aktuellen Diskussion
La these, defendue a plusieurs reprises recemment, d'une genese anthropogene des tchernozioms en Europe centrale durant le Neolithique ancien est rejetee au terme d'un discours critique. On doit cependant, dans la vision modelisee actuelle de la formation de tchernozioms, tenir compte du fait que les dechets de combustion contribuent a la genese de l'humus dans ce type de sols. Le lien suppose entre la genese des tchernozioms et le Rubane n'exist…
