  • New Dates for the Late Neolithic Corded Ware Culture Burials and Early Husbandry in the East Baltic Region
    Archaeofauna 16 (2007): 21-31 New dates for the Late Neolithic Corded Ware Culture burials and early husbandry in the East Baltic region LEMBI LÕUGAS1, AIVAR KRIISKA2 & LIINA MALDRE3 1 Institute of History, Tallinn University, Rüütli 6, EE10130 Tallinn, Estonia. e-mail: [email protected] 2 Department of History, Tartu University, Ülikooli 18, EE50090 Tartu, Estonia. 3 Institute of History, Tallinn University, Rüütli 6, EE10130 Tallinn, Estonia. (Received December 18, 2006; Revised April 10, 2007; Accepted April 16, 2007) ABSTRACT: The appearance of the Corded Ware Culture in the eastern Baltic area has been associated with the beginning of animal husbandry in this region. The culture is quite well re- presented by artefacts around the Baltic Sea basin, whereas its animal bone material seems to have been partly mixed with either that of the Combed Ware Culture, whose economy was based on hunting, fishing and gathering, or with later material. Radiocarbon dates have placed the beginning of the Corded Ware Culture in the eastern Baltic region in the time interval 3000- 2700 cal BC. New dates from Estonia confirm that the phenomenon appeared here at that time. The beginning of animal husbandry in the East Baltic is discussed on the basis of the new dates and the animal bone finds from Corded Ware Culture settlement sites and burials. Important fac- tors in the spreading of early farming in addition to climate, were geographical and environ- mental conditions. KEYWORDS: EAST BALTIC, ESTONIA, LATE NEOLITHIC, CORDED WARE CUL- TURE, DOMESTIC ANIMALS RESUMEN: La cultura de las cerámicas cordadas en el Báltico oriental se asocia con el inicio de la ganadería en la zona.

All copy must be typewritten in double space (including the bibliography): manuscripts for vol. 13, no. 1 must be submitted in duplicate by February 1, 1971, and for vol. 13, no. 2 by August 1, 1971. Description of samples, in date lists, should follow as closely as possible the style shown in this volume. Each separate entry (date or series) in a date list should be considered an abstract, prepared in such a way that descriptive material is distinguished from geologic or archaeologic interpretation, but description and interpretation must be both brief and informative. Date lists should therefore not be preceded by abstracts, but abstracts of the more usual form should accompany all papers (e.g. geochemical contributions) that are directed to specific problems. Each description should include the following data, if possible in the order given: 1. Laboratory number, descriptive name (ordinarily that of the locality of collec- tion), and the date expressed in years B.P.

The settlement was earlier classified as Epigravettian which is confirmed by new radiocarbon Svratka River dating. Based on the knowledge obtained in the immediate neighbourhood of the locality, it became Epigravettian apparent that this convenient area near the river repeatedly attracted people to build settlements in these subsistence strategies places, in all probability specialised groups of hunters. Despite the climatically unfavourable final part of the LGT period (after a definition by Markova et al. 2013), within which the settlement at Brno- -Štýřice III falls based on radiocarbon dating and malacofauna, we can take into consideration a denser settlement strategy than is usually assumed in the broader context of the Middle Danube Region.

A previous radiocarbon dating and stable isotope study of directly associated ungulate and human bone samples from Late Mesolithic burials at Schela Cladovei in Romania established that there is a freshwater reservoir effect of approximately 500 yr in the Iron Gates reach of the Danube River valley in southeast Europe. Using the δ15N values as an indicator of the percentage of freshwater protein in the human diet, the 14C data for 24 skeletons from the site of Lepenski Vir were corrected for this reservoir effect. The results of the paired 14C and stable isotope measurements provide evidence of substantial dietary change over the period from about 9000 BP to about 300 BP. The data from the Early Mesolithic to the Chalcolithic are consistent with a 2-component dietary system, where the linear plot of isotopic values reflects mixing between the 2 end-members to differing degrees. Typically, the individuals of Mesolithic age have much heavier δ15N signals and slightly heavier δ13C, while individuals of Early Neolithic and Chalcolithic age have lighter δ15N and δ13C values. Contrary to our earlier suggestion, there is no evidence of a substantial population that had a transitional diet midway between those that were characteristic of the Mesolithic and Neolithic.
