Neolithic Bodies in Vráble – 7000 year-old Headless Human Skeletons in an Enclosed LBK Settlement in South–West Slovakia
We present here the extraordinary find of an Early Neolithic mass deposition of headless human bodies at the LBK settlement site of Vráble-Veľké Lehemby. While various scientific analyses are under way, we present the archaeological context of this find and preliminary osteological and taphonomic observations. We discuss these in the light of a patterned and meaningful depositional complexity in Vráble, which embeds into a larger corpus of human …
Visual Patterns of Attention in Prehistoric Central Germany
Stylistic variation has been a central concern in the study of prehistoric pottery in central Europe. In this paper, we approach stylistic variation from a visual cognition perspective, focusing on the effects that stylistic attributes of vessels have on patterns of attention. A free-viewing eye-tracking experiment was conducted using pottery vessels from central Germany spanning from 5500 to 1 bce . Our results show that, among modern observers,…
Carpathian obsidian exchange and social connectivity in eastern central Europe between the 7th and 3rd millennia BCE
Uses Carpathian obsidian as a proxy for the connectivity of Neolithic and Copper Age communities in eastern central Europe. • Detects spatial and temporal patterning in the circulation of Carpathian obsidian. • Finds that structured depositions involving Carpathian obsidian are mostly restricted to LBK contexts. • Recognises that there are changes over time in the social values around Carpathian obsidian depositional practices. • Shows Carpathian…
Crossing the line
This paper introduces a volume that brings together specialists in lithic studies to explore how this proxy can reveal different spatial patterns across a large European territory. It examines how diverse behaviours in various environmental and geographical areas can enhance our understanding of social processes during European neolithisation. Initially, we investigate the concept of borders and borderlines, proposing models based on the space co…
Dynamic multiscalar approach for structuring and scaling human activities involving lithics
This paper aims to contribute to the discussion on borders and boundaries from the perspective of lithics. European archaeological and historical research has seen numerous endeavours to create an overarching definition of borders of spatial, social, political, linguistic and religious kinds. This is particularly important in the context of the modern, strongly divided European nation states, and this situation has a strong impact on the archaeol…
Whitestone’—A Specific Polished Stone Tool Raw Material in the Late Neolithic of Southern Hungary
‘Whitestone’ is a characteristic raw material in the Late Neolithic (Tisza and Lengyel culture) polished stone tool (chisel, adze, macehead) archaeological record in Southern Hungary. However, the lithology—the technical term not reflecting a petrographic definition—needs detailed petrographic-analytical investigations (by optical microscopy, PGAA, and SEM-EDS) to determine the exact rock types and to connect them to specific geological sources. …
Ditches in focus
This paper presents and discusses the results of geophysical and archaeological prospections at the site of Szilvás in southeast Transdanubia (Baranya County, Hungary). The multiperiodic site was used from the Late Copper Age to the Migration Period, but the vast majority of the pottery sherds relate to the Vučedol pottery style. The find of a possible wheel model highlights the role of technological innovations. We identify a complex enclosure s…
Prehistoric amber item at Žabalj-Nove Zemlje site (Vojvodina, Serbia)
This study focuses on a newly-discovered, perforated pendant from the Žabalj-Nove Zemlje site in Vojvodina, Serbia. The main settlement structure of this multiperiod site is primarily associated with the Late Neolithic Tisza and Vinča cultures (5400-4500/4450 BCE), where two burned houses were excavated from a total of 204 rectangular building anomalies detected archaeomagnetically. A unique, triangular-shaped and perforated pendant appeared on t…
Pits, houses and rondels
As an intensely debated period, the transition from the LBK to post-LBK societies remains in the centre of attention of researchers dealing with the Early Neolithic in Central Europe. The partly drastic change of the settlement systems, regarding both the patterns and organisation, is indeed an interesting subject and raises questions about the social and economic processes and changes that may have accompanied this development. With this contrib…
A guide to the mechanisms of transformation
Despite the clear divisions in current archaeological theories, in the last 30 years a 'new consensus' is emerging; this is the recognition that materials can actively shape human behaviour and cognition. While this recognition offers major opportunities for explaining changes in the archaeological record without just succumbing to individual simplistic models - such as migration or diffusion, or acculturation or convergence - there is still a ne…
An Iconic Late Neolithic Tell on the Hungarian Plain
It often happens that the fresh investigation of well-known sites using newly developed techniques and their reassessment brings the recognition that some of the assertions believed to be timelessly true turn out to have been strongly mistaken or were misinterpretations. This has been the case with many of the renowned Late Neolithic tell settlements dated to the earlier fifth millennium BC on the Alföld (Great Hungarian Plain). The collation of …
Egy ikonikus késő neolitikus tell-település az Alföldön
Előfordul, hogy régóta jól ismert lelőhelyek új módszerekkel végzett mai kutatása és újraértékelése közben néhány örök érvényűnek gondolt tézisről kiderül, hogy pusztán tévedés, félreértelmezés. A híres alföldi, az 5. évezred első felére keltezett késő újkőkori tell-településekkel sok esetben szintén ez történik. Az utóbbi években a múlt századi ásatási adatok mellett mind roncsolásmentes vizsgálatok, mind pedig új feltárások eredményeinek összeh…
