  • Feast, Food and Fodder in Neolithic-Bronze Age Greece
    Paul Halstead Feast, Food and Fodder in Neolithic-Bronze Age Greece. Commensality and the Construction of Value Summary This paper explores the relationship between mundane domestic and more formal meals in recent rural Greece, as a prelude to a diachronic examination of the range of commen- sal behavior through the Neolithic and Bronze Age of the same region. Analysis of recent practices highlights the role of a hierarchy of low- to high-value foods. While Neolithic commensality beyond the household emphasizes equality and collective cohesion, formal commensality takes a strikingly and increasingly diacritical form through the Bronze Age. It is argued that Bronze Age diacritical commensality was part of a broader strategy of elite ‘choreography’ of social life. A hierarchy of foods, which linked diacritical behavior, labor mobilization and risk buffering, may have played a critical role in driving this trajectory of change. Keywords: Prehistoric archaeology; Bronze Age archaeology; Greece; feast; food; fodder; Neolithic; Bronze Age; value. Als Vorarbeit für eine diachrone Untersuchung des Spektrums kommensaler Verhaltenswei- sen vom Neolithikum bis zur Bronzezeit in Griechenland beschätigt sich dieser Beitrag mit der Beziehung zwischen einfachen, häuslichen und förmlicheren Mahlzeiten im heutigen ländlichen Griechenland. Die Analyse gegenwärtiger Praktiken unterstreicht die Rolle, die die Hierarchisierung von Nahrungsmitteln spielt, denen mehr oder weniger Wert beige- messen wird.

  • Between Feasts and Daily Meals. Towards an Archaeology Of
    Between Feasts and Daily Meals Susan Pollock (ed.) BERLIN STUDIES OF THE ANCIENT WORLD – together in a common physical and social setting – is a central element in people’s everyday lives. This makes com- mensality a particularly important theme within which to explore social relations, social reproduction and the working of politics whether in the present or the past. Archaeological attention has been focused primarily on feasting and other special commensal occasions to the neglect of daily commensality. This volume seeks to redress this imbalance by emphasizing the dynamic relation between feasts and quotidian meals and devoting explicit attention to the micro- politics of Alltag (“the everyday”) rather than solely to special occasions. Case studies drawing on archaeological ( material) as well as written sources range from the Neolithic to the Bronze Age in Western Asia and Greece, Formative to late pre-Columbian com munities in Andean South America, and modern Europe. berlin studies of 30 the ancient world berlin studies of the ancient world · 30 edited by topoi excellence cluster Between Feasts and Daily Meals towards an archaeology of commensal spaces edited by Susan Pollock Bibliographic information published by the Deutsche Nationalbibliothek The Deutsche Nationalbibliothek lists this publication in the Deutsche Nationalbibliographie; detailed bibliographic data are available in the Internet at http://dnb.d-nb.de. © 2015 Edition Topoi / Exzellenzcluster Topoi der Freien Universität Berlin und der Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin Cover image: Wall plaque with feasting scene, found in Nippur.

Geological Survey of Serbia, Rovinjska 12, Belgrade, Serbia. Email: [email protected] Abstract: Flaked stone artefacts found on the quarry Lojanik in west-central Serbia are good examples of how the function of non-diagnostic pieces could be determined through technological and use-wear analysis. In this study, we present the examples of surface clusters and artefacts from stratigraphic layers. Our attention is focused on the prevailing category of fragmented raw materials in the initial phase of knapping, preforms, debris, shattered pieces of anthropogenic origin and an immense number of artefacts and geofacts. The study of mines and quarries, as well as distribution of the raw materials that come from the central Balkans is an understudied phenomenon. Flaked stone artefacts found on the outcrops of the Lojanik hilltop is a good example of how we can apply technological, petrological and use-wear analysis on this type of site. Keeping in mind the loose context of the finds, as well as the lack of any datable material, this issue has to be approached with a lot of caution, since the locality itself seems to show human presence during Palaeolithic, Neolithic and Chalcolithic.

  • From PPN to Late Neolithic (Part II Is Refering to Copper Age) We Start
    Acta Terrae Septemcastrensis, XVIII, 2019 DOI: 10.2478/actatr-2019-0002 Are there cities and fairs in the neolithic? Part I – from PPN to late Neolithic (Part II is refering to Copper Age ) Gheorghe Lazarovici Cornelia-Magda Lazarovici Keywords: fortifications, defensive ditches, palisades, fairs, proto-urban, bastions, temples, sanctuaries, conclaves Abstract: In this study we have resumed the problem of Neolithic settlements with a complex architecture (defense systems with ditches, palisades, towers, bastions; residential buildings; cult constructions; social constructions) which support the idea of a proto-urban organization since the PPN. We have analyzed current definitions of cities and fairs, which mainly reflect situations from classical antiquity and the Middle Ages, but they cannot be applied to prehistoric realities, which, according to interdisciplinary research, offer another perspective. We also believe that religion too has played an important part in these sites, some of them being real centers of worship. We start our study with some definitions from Dexonline. CITY, cities, 1. A complex form of human settlement, with multiple municipal facilities, usually with administrative, industrial, commercial, political and cultural functions. An important human settlement with a large population, with businesses and institutions, which is an industrial, commercial, cultural, political and administrative center. City (Hung. város, Bg. Serb. varoš, city; Turk. varoš, suburb, alb. varróš, ngr. varósi). The association of a large number of houses and courtyards lined up along the streets. Fair, 1. once city: villages and fairs. From the above definitions, an important function has been forgotten, the religious function. We consider it important, because in Prehistory, and especially in the Pre-Pottery Neolithic (PPN), just as the first “cities” appeared, there were monumental temples and sanctuaries (Schmidt 1995; 2000; Hauptmann, Schmidt 2000; Schmidt K.

Crnobrnja Belgrade City Museum, Belgrade, RS [email protected] ABSTRACT – The final period of Neolithic Vin≠a culture, which occupied wide areas in the Balkans, is characterised by large settlements, which were built, judging by the most recent investigations, according to premeditated plan. What was their purpose? Were they autonomous or part of some wider communities? How large was the territory within which people of that time defined themselves as ‘we’ and where did communities of ‘others’ begin? The objective of this work is to indicate the possibilities for studying the complexity of group identities in the Late Vin≠a societies. We take as a starting point the micro-region of Drenski Vis in north-western Serbia, where five Late Vin≠a settle- ments have been discovered. IZVLE∞EK – Za kon≠no obdobje neolitske kulture Vin≠a, ki je bila raz∏irjena na ∏ir∏em obmo≠ju Bal- kana, so zna≠ilne velike naselbine, ki so bile, glede na najnovej∏e raziskave, na≠rtno zgrajene.

Roberts2 Accepted: 15 May 2021 © The Author(s) 2021 Abstract This paper analyses and re-evaluates current explanations and interpretations of the origins, development and societal context of metallurgy in the Balkans (c. 6200– 3700 BC). The early metallurgy in this region encompasses the production, distribu- tion and consumption of copper, gold, tin bronze, lead and silver. The paper draws upon a wide range of existing archaeometallurgical and archaeological data, the diversity and depth of which make the Balkans one of the most intensively inves- tigated of all early metallurgical heartlands across the world. We focus specifcally on the ongoing debates relating to (1) the independent invention and innovation of diferent metals and metal production techniques; (2) the analysis and interpretation of early metallurgical production cores and peripheries, and their collapses; and (3) the relationships between metals, metallurgy and society. We argue that metal pro- duction in the Balkans throughout this period refects changes in the organisation of communities and their patterns of cooperation, rather than being the fundamental basis for the emergence of elites in an increasingly hierarchical society.

In the first section of this work we present the comprehensive report about the investigations carried out so far. The geomagnetic prospection undertaken from 2006 to 2008 covered an area of 32,400 square meters and the obtained results indicate the existence of around 100 houses built in rows around the rather large open areas as well as the trenches surrounding the settlement. The investigations of the house 1/2008 dating from the Vin~a culture D–2 period yielded in addition to the data concerning its interior organization also a unique find of the group of 46 figurines with 11 models of miniature tools. In the second section of this work we discuss the prospects, which future investigations of this site and its environment could provide concerning the study of the social organization in the very end of the Vin~a culture. Key words. – Neolithic, Vin~a culture, settlement, house, geomagnetic investigations, group of figurines, altar, Stubline, Obrenovac. he site Crkvine is situated in the vicinity of the deluvial-proluvial deposits.

  • Communality and Discord in an Early Neolithic Settlement Agglomeration: the LBK Site of Vráble, Southwest Slovakia
    Communality and Discord in an Early Neolithic Settlement Agglomeration: The LBK Site of Vráble, Southwest Slovakia Martin Furholt , Nils Müller-Scheeßel , Maria Wunderlich, Ivan Cheben & Johannes Müller Our research at the large LBK settlement site of Vráble, southwest Slovakia, revealed dynamics of social integration and antagonisms unfolding in an agglomerated, early farming community. During its lifespan from 5250 to 4950 BC, it constantly grew until around 5050 BC it was inhabited by about 70 contemporaneous longhouses. We found that Vráble consisted of markedly autonomous farmstead units that were held together by village-wide social institutions including sharing and communality. Nevertheless, from the beginning, a contradiction between particular farmstead and collective village and neighbourhood interests existed and rose. Towards the end of the village’s existence, around 5075 BC an elaborate enclosure was constructed around one of the three neigbourhoods, actively blocking contact with the others. Along this enclosure, human bodies were deposited, showing a social categorization that we interpret as relating to social inequality. This rising level of conflict and emerging social inequality was, we argue, not sustainable under the conditions of early farming societies and led to the village’s abandonment at 4950 BC. Introduction as village or neighbourhood communities, or lineages and clans (as proposed by Bogaard et al. The Early Neolithic settlement cluster of Vráble is 2011) might also have played an important role in one of the largest known settlement sites with mate- structuring the social relations of this site. We thus rials of the ‘Linear Pottery Culture’ (LBK) in central want to explore the question of in what ways and Europe.
