The Neolithic in South Bohemia

The project focuses on the Neolithic settlement of a specific region of South Bohemia, which was settled during the secondary wave of the spread of the Linear Pottery culture and was only sporadically settled in the later phases of the Neolithic. The project studies settlement dynamics, transregional contacts, and subsistence strategies of local farmers and their interaction with the natural environment of the region. It can be assumed that in the peripheral zones of Neolithic settlement, there may have been adaptations and diversification of the cultural habitat that we know from the better-studied core areas of Neolithic settlement.

The project's principal investigator is Václav Vondrovský from the Institute of Archaeology of the CAS in Prague and the Institute of Archaeology of the Faculty of Arts of the University of South Bohemia in České Budějovice. The Laboratory of Archaeobotany and Palaeoecology of the Faculty of Science of the University of South Bohemia in České Budějovice provides environmental analyses and participates in solving questions related to the natural environment and subsistence strategies of the first farmers in the region.
