1995 SAA Paper Paper presented by Peter Bogucki at the annual meeting for the Society for American Archaeology, Minneapolis, May 1995. http://www.princeton.edu/~bogucki/saa1995.html
Extractions: Paper presented at the annual meeting for the Society for American Archaeology, Minneapolis, May 1995. Please do not circulate or quote until publication in final form. Agriculture came to central Europe somewhat over 7,000 years ago. In the last century of archaeological research, we have been able to establish the archaeological record of these communities in some detail and have good, but not perfect, control over the chronology. The "how" and "why" of the establishment of agricultural communities in central Europe has been much more elusive. In the millennia that preceded agriculture in this region, postglacial climatic conditions and vegetation had been established, and by the sixth millennium B.C., central Europe enjoyed somewhat wetter and warmer conditions than today, by about 2 degrees centigrade. The forested terrain sheltered modern forest fauna along with bands of postglacial foragers. Within the upland basins, there was one habitat that was of greatest interest to the early farming populations. This was the valleys of the smaller streams which drained patches of the loess. Loess is fertile but dry, and these stream valleys were oases of moistness from runoff from the adjacent watersheds and from upstream. Early farming populations settled in these habitats along the smaller rivers and creeks. In the lowlands of the North European Plain, there was also one very important habitat. This was among the chains and clusters of lakes left in meltwater valleys and dead-ice features that interrupt patches of ground moraine in several parts of the plain. In some respect, these features are analogues of the upland creeks, in that they are moist habitats in the midst of drier areas of fertile soil.
