After Ravenna in 1997, it is now the turn of Riva del Garda in Trentino to welcome such a large group of archaeologists who will be able to exchange views and present the outcomes of their research. It is an honour to host a scientifi c meeting the quality of which is immediately evident from the wide range of session themes and the topics of the papers. Trentino is a land of archaeologists: it is the birthplace of Federico Halbherr, the discoverer of Gortyna, Festòs and Haghia Triada on Crete (Greece), Paolo Orsi, the tireless investigator of the civilizations of Magna Grecia, Giuseppe Gerola, scholar of Byzantine and Venetian monuments on the island of Crete, and Pia Laviosa Zambotti, author of many volumes on the cultural evolution of early cultures in Europe. More recently Bernardino Bagolini and Renato Perini have contributed, with their investigations on Mesolithic and Neolithic sites and research on the lake-dwellings of the Bronze Age, to make Trentino a region whose rich archaeological heritage is well known even outside our national borders. Lake Garda, too, is an archaeological territory: Mount Baldo, which dominates the eastern shore of the lake, preserves the earliest evidence for human presence in our region; at Riva del Garda, thanks to the careful preventive action carried out by the Archaeological Heritage Offi ce of the Autonomous Province of Trento, evidence of Neolithic settlements and a rich documentation of the Roman period have been brought to light. They illuminate the way this territory offered excellent economic and environmental resources in various periods. It is in this territory that today the Museum of Riva del Garda operates, preserving some of the highest expressions of cultures that have left their traces in this region over the past millennia, like the Copper Age statue-stelae from Arco. The museum is the great promoter of the enhancement of the archaeological heritage of the Lake Garda area. Furthermore, it is working towards the creation of a large territorial complex called MAG (Museo dell’Alto Garda/Museum of Upper Garda). Lake Garda is at present a border territory. But it is a liquid border, navigable and, therefore, it is a space for sharing and exchanging, of passage and cultural mingling. The Mediterranean climate it enjoys symbolically represents the role that this region has always had, as a melting-pot of cultures from the neighbouring regions (the site of Monte San Martino is emblematic of these aspects) and, more generally, a meeting point between the Mediterranean and Central European world. The organisation of the meeting has been a complex task, shared by many people and various institutions. To each them, and unfortunately I cannot list them individually, my gratitude for their work, for their human and professional contribution, their engagement and patience. Some people, however, deserve a special thanks because without them all this would not have been possible: Senator Claudio Molinari, Mayor of Riva del Garda, who has believed in the project from the start and has supported it in every way, together with Monica Ronchini, Director of the City Museum; all the members of the Scientifi c Committee who had a diffi cult task which they carried out in a well-balanced and impartial way; Margherita Ferrari and Marianna Zambiasi who have taken care of the organisation impeccably and most professionally, making suggestions and offering solutions to every problem; Monica Dorigatti who has offered her expertise and her sensitivity in every phase of the organisation; and a very special thanks to Martina Dalla Riva who has led the Scientifi c Secretariat most competently and with great patience. At the moment of writing a great friend and archaeologist has left us, Lawrence H. Barfi eld, of the University of Birmingham (UK). It is very sad not to see him on “his” Lake Garda, yet the memory of him will stay alive for those – and there are many of us – who had the opportunity to appreciate his humane character, his simplicity and enthusiasm, together with his great scientifi c expertise. I wish to dedicate this effort to Lawrence, in memory of his precious advice, the friendly and profound discussions and the enlightening exchange of views.

Svend Hansen – Jürgen Renn – Florian Klimscha – Jochen Büttner – Barbara Helwing – Sebastian Kruse The Digital Atlas of Innovations: A Research Program on Innovations in Prehistory and Antiquity Edited by Gerd Graßhoff and Michael Meyer, Excellence Cluster Topoi, Berlin eTopoi ISSN 2192-2608 http://journal.topoi.org Except where otherwise noted, content is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 License: http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0 Svend Hansen – Jürgen Renn – Florian Klimscha – Jochen Büttner – Barbara Helwing – Sebastian Kruse The Digital Atlas of Innovations: A Research Program on Innovations in Prehistory and Antiquity The authors discuss the simultaneous appearance of technological innovations in three key technologies (metallurgy, wheeled vehicles, weighing systems) in the second half of the 4th millennium. This is done from a source-critical perspective because the innova- tions are discussed with the help of dynamic maps from the Topoi project Digital Atlas of Innovations. Besides indications of diffusion gradients influenced by special research conditions, exceptional waves of innovation can be detected for all three technologies in the discussed period. These waves of innovation cannot, however, be generalized but have to be understood on the basis of the respective technology traditions and lines of devel- opment specific to local areas. Monocentric diffusion theories can be clearly disproven, local technology developments and their converging in certain centrally situated regions have to be assumed instead. Similarly, the transfer of objects and their châine opératoire can only be detected rather infrequently, while the adaptation to local socio-economic and environmental factors can be demonstrated.

The archaeological record thus preserves evidence of contacts with diverse regions, whose vestiges can be found on settlements and in the cemeteries (grave inventories) as well. The earliest farmers arrived in the Carpathian Basin from southeastern Europe ca. 6000–5800 BCE and they culturally belonged to the Körös-Çris (east) and Starčevo (west) archaeological formations [1, 2, 3, 4]. They probably encountered some hunter-gatherer groups in the Carpathian Basin, whose archaeological traces are still scarce [5], and bioarchaeological remains are almost unknown from Hungary. The farmer communities east (Alföld) and west (Transdanubia) of the Danube River developed in parallel, giving rise around 5600/5400 BCE to a number of cultural groups of the Linearband Ceramic (LBK) culture [6, 7, 8].

  • Luigi Pernier, Direttore
    Volume LXXXVII Serie III, 9 Tomo I* 2009 ESTRATTO SCUOLA ARCHEOLOGICA ITALIANA DI ATENE 100 anni 1909/1910 - 2009/2010 LUIGI PERNIER: DIRETTORE “PEL BENE E L’AVVENIRE” * “Le dirò che la mia proposta del nome del Dr. Pernier per la direzione della Scuola di Atene è stata appoggiata presso il Ministro Rava dal Senatore Mosso e dall’On. Galli e che il Ministro ha risposto dando buon affidamento” 1 Con queste parole, scritte da Federico Halbherr 2 a Domenico Comparetti 3, nel settembre del 1908, si conclude la laboriosa genesi 4 della Scuola Archeologica Italiana di Atene. Il triangolo Comparetti-Halbherr-Pernier offre, nei frequenti scambi epistolari, uno spaccato affascinante e, per molti versi, estremamente attuale della rete di interessi politici e scientifici che avevano mosso, già all’indomani della scoperta di Gortina, l’appassionato roveretano a cercare una sede greca per le sue missioni archeologiche. Da Firenze Domenico Comparetti crea i presupposti politici e individua vari ambiti della ricer - ca scientifica, mentre a Halbherr il giovane Luigi Pernier 5 appare come una figura che possa unire la concretezza dell’attività sul campo ad un’indole diplomatica. “Luigi Pernier (…) si distingue per una speciale vocazione per questi studii di storia e di anti - chità” 6 Pernier era stato selezionato nel 1897 come allievo della Scuola Archeologica di Roma da una severa commissione composta da D. Comparetti, R. Lanciani, F. Halbherr, E. Loewy ed E. De Ruggiero. Il giudizio unanime di idoneità aveva confermato l’ottima prova che qualche mese prima Pernier aveva sostenuto discutendo la tesi di laurea di fronte, tra gli altri, a Giulio Beloch e con Lanciani come relatore.

  • Manufacturing Technique and Social Identity: Three Cases of ‘Manufacture-By-Wear’ Technique
    Archaeofauna 27 (2018): 253-274 Manufacturing technique and social identity: three cases of ‘manufacture-by-wear’ technique MONICA MĂRGĂRIT1, PAVEL MIREA2, ADRIAN BĂLĂȘESCU3 1Valahia University of Târgoviște, Humanities Faculty, str. Lt. Stancu Ion, nr. 35, Târgoviște, Romania 2Teleorman County Museum, str. 1848, nr. 1, Alexandria, Romania 3“Vasile Pârvan” Institute of Archaeology, Romanian Academy, str. Henri Coandă, nr. 11, București, Romania (Received 8 June 2017; Revised 13 April 2018; Accepted 4 May 2018) ABSTRACT: This paper focuses on the identification of changes in the processing of osse- ous materials in the southeast European Neolithic, beginning with three types of production by manufacture wear technique typical for the region: bipartition by abrasion, segmentation with fibre and perforation by wear technique. The processing of osseous materials is strongly conditioned by their natural anatomic shapes which is why only a restricted range of possible transformation variables, with minimum changes through time, would be expected. However, numerous specialists invoke the cultural value conferred by the community as the preeminent element in the selection of raw material more than the limitations of the raw material form. Therefore, there are some examples in which there was little change in raw materials selec- tion across long periods of time, although there was variation in animal species availability. Consequently, the study of the three types of ‘manufacture-by-wear’ technique becomes more interesting. These techniques are not present in all prehistoric times in this region. Some of these techniques appear on worked osseous materials in Romania and neighbouring areas at the beginning of the Neolithic and disappear just as suddenly (bipartition by abrasion) or appear only sporadically (perforation and segmentation with fibre) by the Early Chalcolithic.

  • 70 Some Remarks on the Transition of the Boian
    SOME REMARKS ON THE TRANSITION OF THE BOIAN-GUMELNIŢA HOUSEHOLDS – ARCHITECTURE AND POTTERY ASSEMBLAGES Rumyana Yordanova* Keywords: Ruse tell settlement, Boian Culture, KGK VI, transition, household. Cuvinte cheie: așezarea de tip tell de la Ruse, cultura Boian, KGK VI, tranziție, locuință. Abstract: This paper presents the characteristics of several houses from three sites in the Lower Danube area – the tell settlements at Ruse, Tangȃru and Căscioarele – Ostrovel. These houses are considered among the earliest documented structures dated during the transition from the Late Boian to the Gumelniţa Culture. Comparing their geographical, cultural, chronological and architectural aspects, this paper traces changes occurring in the household tradition and possible settlement interactions. The architectural details and the house inventories show similarities that differ from those of the Late Gumelniţa structures. Some of these have been previously interpreted as “temples” due to their rich painted and plastic interior decoration. Since the structures from the Romanian sites are well-known, the Ruse houses and their inventories are described in greater detail. Special attention is given to pottery as a main cultural and chronological landmark, but also as evidence for the range of everyday activities and their manifestation during the entire KGK VI period. Rezumat: Această lucrare prezintă caracteristicile mai multor locuințe din trei situri din zona Dunării de Jos - așezările de la Ruse, Tangȃru și Căscioarele - Ostrovel. Aceste locuințe sunt considerate printre cele mai vechi structuri documentate, datate în timpul tranziției de la cultura Boian târzie la cultura Gumelnița. Comparând aspectele lor geografice, culturale, cronologice și arhitecturale, această lucrare urmărește schimbările care apar în tradiția gospodăriei și posibilele interacțiuni din așezare.
