ENG Ancient History of Latvia 10 500–1 800 BC At the end of the Glacial Period, approximately 14 000–12 000 years ago, the territory of Latvia became free from the ice sheet. The first human settlers arrived in this tundra landscape in the Late Paleolithic (10 500–9 000 BC), 11 000–12 000 years ago, following the reindeer and keeping to the major river valleys and the shore of the Baltic Ice Lake [3]*. Their material culture reveals affinities with the Swiderian Culture of Central and Western Europe. Natural conditions in the Mesolithic (9 000–5 400 BC) changed from cool and dry to warm and wet. People settled permanently on riverbanks and lakeshores, and subsisted from hunting, fishing and gathering wild plants. These people made weapons and tools from flint, antler, bone and wood [4,5]. They belonged to the Kunda Culture, which extended across a large area of the East Baltic. The beginning of the Neolithic (5 400–1 800 BC) was marked by the introduction of pottery-making [7]. The Neolithic also witnessed the beginnings of animal husbandry and agriculture. In the Early Neolithic (5 400–4 100 BC), the Narva Culture developed locally on the bases of the Kunda Culture. In the Middle Neolithic (4 100–2 900 BC), the representatives of the Pit-Comb Ware Culture arrived in the territory of Latvia from the north-east, regarded as the ancestors of the Finnic peoples [10–12]. In this period, amber was also extensively worked. In western Latvia there was the Sārnate Culture [9] while in the eastern Latvia – the Piestiņa Culture [13] that continued the tradition of the Narva Culture. In the Late Neolithic (2 900–1 800 BC) representatives of the Corded Ware Culture, arrived in the area of present-day Latvia [14–16]. They practiced the techniques of polishing flint and drilling stone artefacts. It is believed that the representatives of the Corded Ware Culture were of Indo-European origin and that the roots of the Balts are closely related to the representatives of this culture. In the Stone Age, the dead were buried in extended position in flat inhumation graves. In the Mesolithic in burials ochre was often used. Grave goods varied considerably in number, often being absent altogether. * The numbers in square brackets indicate the relevant showcases. .

Fortified Settlements in the Eastern Baltic: from Earlier Research to New Interpretations
Vilnius University Press Archaeologia Lituana ISSN 1392-6748 eISSN 2538-8738 2018, vol. 19, pp. 13–33 DOI: https://doi.org/10.15388/ArchLit.2018.19.2 Fortified Settlements in the Eastern Baltic: From Earlier Research to New Interpretations Valter Lang Department of Archaeology, Institute of History and Archaeology University of Tartu 2 Jakobi St., 51014 Tartu, Estonia [email protected] A brief history of research and earlier interpretations of fortified settlements east of the Baltic Sea are provided in the first part of the article. The earlier research has resulted in the identification of the main area of the distribution of fortified settlements, the main chronology in the Late Bronze and Pre-Roman Iron Ages, and their general cultural and economic character. It has been thought that the need for protection – either because of outside danger or social tensions in society – was the main reason for the foundation of fortified sites. The second part of the article adds a new possibility of interpreting the phenomenon of fortified settlements, proceeding from ethnogenesis of the Finnic and Baltic peoples. It is argued that new material culture forms that took shape in the Late Bronze Age – including fortified settlements and find assemblages characteristic of them – derived at least partly from a new population arriving in several waves from the East-European Forest Belt. Keywords: fortified settlements, East Baltic, Bronze Age, ethnic interpretation.

MESOLITHIC and NEOLITHIC HABITATION of the EASTERN BALTIC EE-2400 Tartu, Estonia and Institute of Latvian History, 19, Turgenev
[RADIOCARBON, VOL. 35, No. 3, 1993, P. 503-506] MESOLITHIC AND NEOLITHIC HABITATION OF THE EASTERN BALTIC ARVI LIIVA Institute of Zoology and Botany, Estonian Academy of Sciences, Vanemuise Street 21 EE-2400 Tartu, Estonia and ILZE LOZE Institute of Latvian History, 19, Turgenev Street, LV-1518 Riga, Latvia ABSTRACT. In this paper we consider the radiocarbon chronology of Mesolithic and Neolithic settlement sites in the eastern Baltic region. Dating of wood and charcoal from Estonian and Latvian sites establishes the periods (early, middle and late) within these epochs. We present 9014C dates, as yet unpublished in RADIOCARBON, produced by laboratories in Riga, Tallin, Tartu, Leningrad and Moscow. INTRODUCTION The Tartu, Vilnius and Leningrad laboratories radiocarbon dated samples from Mesolithic and Neolithic settlement sites of the eastern Baltic. Laboratories in Riga, Tallinn and Moscow also dated some samples; Tartu and Leningrad previously reported 36 dates (Vinogradov et al. 1966; Liiva, Ilves and Punning 1966; Dolukhanov 1970; Ilves, Punning and Liva 1970; Semyontsov et al. 1972; Dolukhanov et al. 1976). We have used 90 additional dates for our study. All 14C data presented here are uncorrected and uncalibrated. RADIOCARBON INVESTIGATIONS Radiocarbon investigations in the eastern Baltic have enabled us to establish an occupation history beginning with the Early Mesolithic. No samples were obtained from Late Paleolithic sites. The timing of the Early Mesolithic culture in Estonia and eastern Latvia was determined after dating seven samples from three habitation sites: Pulli in Estonia (5 samples), Zvejnieki II and Suagals in Latvia (2 samples). Occupation of the Pulli site, associated with the early phase of the Kunda culture, as are habitation sites of Latvia, is ascribed to 9600-9350 BP (Punning, Liiva and Ilves 1968; Ilves, Liiva and Punning 1974; Jaanits and Jaanits 1978).

Kristjan Sander & Aivar Kriiska NEW ARCHAEOLOGICAL DATA AND
Fennoscandia archaeologica XXXV (2018) Kristjan Sander & Aivar Kriiska NEW ARCHAEOLOGICAL DATA AND PALEOLANDSCAPE RECONSTRUCTIONS OF THE BASIN OF AN EARLY AND MIDDLE HOLOCENE LAKE NEAR KUNDA, NORTH-EASTERN ESTONIA Abstract The settlement site of Kunda Lammasmägi and its surroundings have been studied extensively since the 19th century. Nevertheless, a number of questions on the nature of the settlement and its surrounding environment remain unanswered. In this paper, we will present paleolandscape recon- structions based on geology, palynology, micro- and macrofossil analysis and radiocarbon datings published by various researchers. We will also include recent LiDAR data, results of the fieldwork carried out by the authors at Kunda Lammasmägi and along the paleolake shoreline, as well as the results of the analysis of archaeological material accumulated from 1933 to 2016 with an emphasis on lithic finds and pottery. Recent fieldwork, digital elevation modelling and typo-chronological review of the finds have clarified issues, such as the extent of stratigraphical mixing, association between the settlement stages and the paleolake development, and the human activity in other parts of the paleolake depression. Three distinct phases can be observed in the development of environmental conditions of the Kunda depression: 1) until the beginning of the Atlantic pollen assemblage zone, Lammasmägi existed as an island in the southern part of a postglacial lake; 2) during the first half of the Atlantic, the water level dropped, a remnant lake was left in the northern part, and Lammasmägi existed as a seasonal island or higher place in the marsh; 3) by the begin- ning of the second half of the Atlantic, the remnant lake was partly overgrown and Lammasmägi was surrounded by dry land.

Semenov 2 Vladimir V. Bulat 1 Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology, Russian Federation Bio Pharm Cluster «Northern», Department of Innovative Pharmaceuticals and Biotechnology (IPB) 2 Deep Dive Research Group, Russian Federation Abstract The work considers the problems of genetics, archeology, and anthropology connected with problem of localization of R1a* Y-DNA haplotype bearers in Meso- and Neolithic Pre-Corded Ware archaeologic sites. Based on the analysis of findings of 2014-2015 years (described in other works) this paper proposes a hypothesis that the areas of Comb Ware cultures of Eastern Europe could be the possible area of archaic Y-DNA R1a1 subclades spread. The ancient R1a1 Y-haplotype (M198-, M459+) bearers could be possibly accompanied with those with J2b Y-DNA haplotype. As for pre-Mesolitic time, the situation remains unclear as more Eastern and more Southern localizations of R1a* and R1a1* bearers are possible according to modern data. Keywords: Y-DNA haplotype, R1a1, J2b, Mesolithic, Yuzniy Oleni Ostrov, Khvalynsk, Serteya, paleogenetics, paleolinguistics, subclades. Introduction The interest in the origin and early localization of carriers of Y-DNA haplogroup R1a1 is serious, since this Y-DNA subclade is inherent to the significant percentage of the population of Central and Eastern Europe, India, Middle East.

Bronze came into use only about 5000 years ago. The Stone Age extended over the long- est period of prehistoric times that lasted for nearly two million years and it is therefore subdivided into the Palaeolithic (the early phase of the Stone Age), Mesolithic (the intermediate phase of the Stone Age) and Neolithic (the last phase of the Stone Age) periods. On the Estonian territory the Neolithic is estimated into the period 4,900–1,500 (Cal1) BC and the Mesolithic into the period 9,000–4,900 (Cal) BC (Kriiska 2001). The Palaeolithic Period extended to the end of the last Ice Age (200–10 millennia ago) and several subspe- cies of humans (homo) have left traces into these cultural strata. The modern man, or the sc. Cro-Magnon man (Homo sapiens sapi- ens) was preceded by the Neanderthal man (Homo sapiens neanderthalensis, 200–30 millennia ago), Homo erectus 1.6 millions – 200,000 years ago and Homo habilis 2–1.5 million years ago (Lam- bert 1991).

This article illustrates the research potential of these artefacts, with a case study of Mesolithic stray finds from Lithuania. Four bone points from the River Šventoji, Vaikantonys, Obšrūtai and Kamšai were subjected to AMS dating, tandem mass spectrometry for I animal species identification, and technological and use-wear analysis. The results revealed that all four bone points could be dated to the Boreal period, and imply an Early to Middle Mesolithic date. Harpoons from the River Šventoji and Kamšai STONE AGE IN NORTHERN were most likely made of aurochs bones. All of the bone points were produced from long sections of tubular long bones, and EUROPE: three of the points show signs of reuse. Overall, the analysis revealed similarities with contemporaneous material in northern CHANGES IN Europe. Within the context of the present research, the paper briefly describes other scientific methods which could be applied LANDSCAPE, TECHNOLOGIES to orphaned bone and antler tools, including biomolecular and stable isotope analysis. Digital recording methods can be use- AND BELIEFS ful for bone artefact recording. This is relevant today, as the demand for good-quality digital representations is increasing, in order to apply software for further analysis, such as geometric morphometrics.
