Bioarchaeological versus Archaeological Data on the Beginnings of Southeast and Central European Early Neolithic

Summary

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2023: Individual Abstracts" session, at the 88th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology.

The short paper focuses on Early Neolithic continental Europe, with presenting new archaeological results compared to similarly recent ancient DNA and stable isotope studies. I shall address various scenarios from selected regions in the Balkans, in northern Germany before zooming in the eastern and western part of the Carpathian basin. Here again, possibilities to reconcile aDNA data with the archaeological record, as well as some contradictions, but above all, the utterly high diversity of ways of the Neolithic transition will be highlighted.
