The genomic landscape of Stone Age Europe was shaped by multiple migratory waves and population replacements, but different regions do not all show similar patterns. To refine our understanding the dynamics before after dawn Neolithic, we generated analyzed sequence data from human remains 56 individuals Mesolithic, Eneolithic across Central Eastern Europe. We found that Mesolithic European populations formed a geographically widespread isolation-by-distance zone ranging to Siberia, which...

The earliest evidence of wheeled vehicles dates to the Funnel Beaker (TRB) culture in Europe and Late Uruk period Near East. Results excavations 14 C determinations from Poland, Germany, Iraq, Syria Turkey suggest that appearance was contemporary

The site of Bronocice provides a valuable chance to explore aspects economic changes in the later Neolithic central Europe, thanks its large sample animal bones, and remarkable trace haulage on horn-core.

Abstract Objective We aim to identify maternal genetic affinities between the Middle Final Neolithic (3850–2300 BC) populations from present‐day Poland and possible influences Pontic steppe. Materials methods conducted ancient DNA studies associated with Złota, Globular Amphora, Funnel Beaker, Corded Ware cultures (CWC). sequenced genomic libraries on Illumina platform generate 86 complete mitochondrial genomes. Some of samples were enriched for using hybridization capture. Results The...

Excavations at the Polish site of Bronocice uncovered a vessel with wagon motif in late Funnel Beaker pit that dates to 3405 BC and also contained animal bones, flint artefacts potsherds typical phase BR III. This article introduces site, provides an overview its imagery, presents some significant interpretations vessel. It briefly considers issues inherent interpretation ancient imagery suggests ways avoid imposing modern paradigms on imagery.

Spatial archaeology usually links population estimates to settlement functions. Normal (Gaussian) or binomial distributions of a variable reflecting values are used for groups sites identified as seasonal occupations, hamlets, villages, centers etc. However, using this approach the demographic development remains hidden in bell-curves. To solve issue we propose research procedure that considers spatio-demographic population. Application Funnel Beaker Bronocice region led identification at...
