  • Nomadic Migrations Nomads and Their Origins
    PART III Nomadic Migrations Nomads and Their Origins In this book, the term "nomad" refers only to "predatory pastoralists." The reason? Only this category was engaged in a more or less constant interac­ tion with areas of high civilization and the forest tribes in the Eurasian steppe and adjacent areas. Among mobile groups only they fit within the framework of this book. Anatoly Khazanov defines pastoral nomadism as "a distinct form of food­ producing economy in which extensive mobile pastoralism is the predomi­ nant activity, and in which the majority of the population is drawn into periodic pastoral migrations" (Khazanov 1994, 17). In these societies (1) pastoralism is the main form of economic activity; (2) herds graze free-range without stables, year-round; (3) seasonal mobility is contained within a spe­ cific grazing territory (this particular characteristic does not apply to nomads of Sahara); (4) the entire population is mobile; and (5) production is geared to subsistence (16). In principle, pastoralism does not preclude agriculture, and some schol­ ars even include populations for whom herding is secondary. They call these populations "semi-sedentary" (Forde 1963, 404, in Khazanov 1994, 21), distinguishing them from semi-nomadic (for whom herding is primary). The term "herdsman husbandry" is used when only a part, often significant, of the population is engaged in cattle breeding. For the purposes of this book such distinctions are not very important, although we should keep in mind that pastoralism is a continuum. Nomadism lies at one end of this continuum. It implies no or little de­ pendence on agriculture and a predatory stance vis-a.-vis sedentary neighbors.

  • Neolithic Farmers in Poland - a Study of Stable Isotopes in Human Bones and Teeth from Kichary Nowe in the South of Poland
    Neolithic farmers in Poland - A study of stable isotopes in human bones and teeth from Kichary Nowe in the south of Poland Master thesis in archaeological science Archaeological Research Laboratory Stockholm University Supervisors: Kerstin Lidén and Gunilla Eriksson Author: Staffan Lundmark Cover photo: Mandible from the Kichary Nowe site, photo taken by the author Abstract: The diet of the Stone Age cultures is a strong indicator to the social group, thus farmers and hunters can be distinguished through their diet. There is well-preserved and well excavated Polish skeletal material available for such a study but the material has not previously been subject to stable isotopes analyses and therefore the questions of diets has not been answered. This study aims to contribute to the understanding of the cultures in the Kichary Nowe 2 area in the Lesser Poland district in southern Poland. Through analysis of the stable isotopes of Carbon, Nitrogen and Sulphur in the collagen of teeth and skeletal bones from the humans in the Kichary Nowe 2 grave-field and from bones from the fauna, coeval and from the same area, the study will establish whether there were any sharp changes of diets. The material from the grave-field comes from cultures with an established agricultural economy, where their cultural belonging has been anticipated from the burial context. The results from my study of stable isotopes from the bone material will be grouped by various parameters, culture, attribution to sex and age. The groups will then be compared to each other to investigate patterns within and between the groups.

The founding members were a group of historical linguists specializing in Indo-European Studies, a disci- pline that goes back two centuries at the University of Copenhagen, to the days when the linguist and philologist Rasmus Rask (1787–1832) carried out 2 his ground-breaking research. The programme marked a new epoch in modern-day Indo-European stud- ies in that it began to incorporate the findings of archaeology and genetics in its quest to understand the prehistorical spread of the Indo-European lan- guages. This was not the first attempt to relate the many branches of the fam- Preface ily tree to material cultures and, indeed, genes. However, previous attempts were abandoned, after the field was, figuratively speaking, taken hostage by a nefarious alliance of pseudoscientific researchers and politicians around the turn and first half of the 20th century. After the Second World War, collaborations between archaeologists and linguists became rare and generally frowned upon.

  • First Capitals of Armenia and Georgia: Armawir and Armazi (Problems of Early Ethnic Associations)
    First Capitals of Armenia and Georgia: Armawir and Armazi (Problems of Early Ethnic Associations) Armen Petrosyan Institute of Archaeology and Ethnography, Yerevan The foundation legends of the first capitals of Armenia and Georgia – Armawir and Armazi – have several common features. A specific cult of the moon god is attested in both cities in the triadic temples along with the supreme thunder god and the sun god. The names of Armawir and Armazi may be associated with the Anatolian Arma- ‘moon (god).’ The Armenian ethnonym (exonym) Armen may also be derived from the same stem. The sacred character of cultic localities is extremely enduring. The cults were changed, but the localities kept their sacred character for millennia. At the transition to a new religious system the new cults were often simply imposed on the old ones (e.g., the old temple was renamed after a new deity, or the new temple was built on the site or near the ruins of the old one). The new deities inherited the characteristics of the old ones, or, one may say, the old cults were simply renamed, which could have been accompanied by some changes of the cult practices. Evidently, in the new system more or less comparable images were chosen to replace the old ones: similarity of functions, rituals, names, concurrence of days of cult, etc (Petrosyan 2006: 4 f.; Petrosyan 2007a: 175).1 On the other hand, in the course of religious changes, old gods often descend to the lower level of epic heroes. Thus, the heroes of the Armenian ethnogonic legends and the epic “Daredevils of Sasun” are derived from ancient local gods: e.g., Sanasar, who obtains the 1For numerous examples of preservation of pre-Urartian and Urartian holy places in medieval Armenia, see, e.g., Hmayakyan and Sanamyan 2001).

  • Analysis of Late Mid-Neolithic Pottery Illuminates the Presence of a Corded Ware Culture on the Baltic Island of Gotland
    Documenta Praehistorica XLII (2015) Analysis of late mid-Neolithic pottery illuminates the presence of a Corded Ware Culture on the Baltic Island of Gotland Erik Palmgren 1, Helene Martinsson-Wallin 2 1 Visby, SE [email protected] 2 Department of Archaeology and Ancient History, Uppsala University, SE [email protected] ABSTRACT – In this paper, we discuss variations seen in the ornamentation and modes of manu- facturing pottery from the end of the mid-Neolithic 4600–4300 BP on the Island of Gotland in the Baltic Sea. The Pitted Ware cultural groups have been discussed as a western influence from the Swe- dish mainland, but the aDNA on skeletal remains point to eastern influences. We analyse and dis- cuss pottery from the well-investigated Ajvide Pitted Ware site and what these variations mean in term of intra- and inter-island relationships, ethnicity and change, and we suggest the development of what could be described as a hybrid culture.

Volume 121, Number 4 October 2017 AMERICAN JOURNAL OF ARCHAEOLOGY The Journal of the Archaeological Institute of America www.ajaonline.org article Talking Neolithic: Linguistic and Archaeological Perspectives on How Indo-European Was Implemented in Southern Scandinavia rune iversen and guus kroonen In this article, we approach the Neolithization of southern Scandinavia from an archaeo- linguistic perspective. Farming arrived in Scandinavia with the Funnel Beaker culture by the turn of the fourth millennium B.C.E. It was superseded by the Single Grave culture, which as part of the Corded Ware horizon is a likely vector for the introduction of Indo- European speech. As a result of this introduction, the language spoken by individuals from the Funnel Beaker culture went extinct long before the beginning of the historical record, apparently vanishing without a trace. However, the Indo-European dialect that ultimately developed into Proto-Germanic can be shown to have adopted terminology from a non-Indo-European language, including names for local flora and fauna and im- portant plant domesticates. We argue that the coexistence of the Funnel Beaker culture and the Single Grave culture in the first quarter of the third millennium B.C.E.

  • The Scandinavian Battle-Axe: an Assessment
    Amber Roy The Scandinavian Battle-Axe: An Assessment This paper will analyse the use of battle-axes in the battle-axe culture in Scandinavia, also known as the single-grave culture in Denmark, and corded-ware culture in areas of Northern and Eastern Europe. This period c. 2850-2350 BC saw a change of focus from the group to the individual within a group – for example the characteristic single graves of the battle-axe culture buried according to a new set of rules with specific orientation and graves goods. The presence of battle-axes in many of these burials has resulted in a continued interest as well as differing conclusions for their use and significance. Indeed, the presence of battle-axes in a position close to the head in such single inhumations has led many scholars to argue for their significance to that society1. Across the literature they have mostly been viewed as either weapons, symbols of weapons, or symbols of the elite, although there are also arguments for their functional use. As such this paper will assess the potential uses of battle-axes within the Scandinavian Battle-Axe culture, many of which revolve around the importance of the individual within societies during this period. The assessment will revolve around the main question of use: Were Scandinavian battle- axes functional or symbolic? C. 2850-2350 BC saw a profound change in Scandinavia. Labelled the Battle-Axe Culture (BAC) the economic, political, and social change can be seen throughout the archaeology. Examples include forest clearance for agriculture and the keeping of domesticated animals, emerging patterns of spatial organisation, the presence of single inhumations, and most of all an increase in the presence of and variety of stone battle-axes, as well as other new tools, weapons, and pottery including cord-decorated beakers.
