New Perspectives on the Romanian Bronze Age
Part of: Society for American Archaeology 80th Annual Meeting, San Francisco, CA (2015)
The Bronze Age was a period of dynamic social, economic, and political transitions in Europe. However, the archaeology of Romania has been significantly understudied and is often unaccounted for by Western scholars. With its varied physiographic and cultural zones, and situated at the crossroads of European-Eurasian interactions, Romania is growing in its importance to larger models of social change in the Carpathian Zone and Central and Eastern Europe. In this session, we bring together scholars working in the region on projects that explore different facets of social, economic, political organization at multiple scales across Romania.
