Giant prehistoric scavenger may have prevented spread of early humans into Europe
Early humans are thought to have first ventured into Europe around 1.4 million years ago, but failed to spread far across the continent.
Exactly why these first members of the Homo family to arrive in Europe were unable to press home their advantage while later members of the family like the Neanderthals and modern man did, has puzzled anthropologists for decades.

The oldest works of prehistoric art in the world, dating to around 40.000 years back in time, were found in the Schwäbische Alb, Germany. The Venus of Hohle Fels. And the figurine of a mammoth discovered in the Vogelherd cave Germany. Further artworks include cave paintings (France and Spain). And the very first musical instrument ever found - a flute (Germany).
As more and more of prehistoric Europeans had contact with people of other cultures, it has allowed the spread of such concepts to other places.

The Vinča culture, also known as Turdaș culture or Turdaș-Vinča culture, is a Neolithic archaeological culture in Central Europe and Southeastern Europe, dated to the period 5700–4500 BCE. Named for its type site, Vinča-Belo Brdo, a large tell settlement discovered by Serbian archaeologist Miloje Vasić in 1908, it represents the material remains of a prehistoric society mainly distinguished by its settlement pattern and ritual behaviour. Farming technology first introduced to the region during the First Temperate Neolithic was developed further by the Vinča culture, fuelling a population boom and producing some of the largest settlements in prehistoric Europe. These settlements maintained a high degree of cultural uniformity through the long-distance exchange of ritual items, but were probably not politically unified. Various styles of zoomorphic and anthropomorphic figurines are hallmarks of the culture, as are the Vinča symbols, which some conjecture to be an early form of proto-writing. Though not conventionally considered part of the Chalcolithic or "Copper Age", the Vinča culture provides the earliest known example of copper metallurgy.
The Vinča culture occupied a region of Southeastern Europe (i.e. the Balkans) corresponding mainly to modern-day Serbia and Kosovo, but also parts of Romania, Bulgaria, Bosnia, Montenegro, Macedonia, and Greece.
This region had already been settled by farming societies of the First Temperate Neolithic, but during the Vinča period sustained population growth led to an unprecedented level of settlement size and density along with the population of areas that were bypassed by earlier settlers. Vinča settlements were considerably larger than any other contemporary European culture, in some instances surpassing the cities of the Aegean and early Near Eastern Bronze Age a millennium later. One of the largest sites was Vinča-Belo Brdo, it covered 29 hectare and had up to 2,500 people.
Early Vinča settlement population density was 50-200 people per hectare, in later phases an average of 50-100 people per hectare was common. The Divostin site 4900-4650 B.C. had up to 1028 houses and a maximum population size of 8200 and could perhaps be the largest Vinča settlement. Another large site was Stubline from 4700 B.C. it may contained a maximum population of 4000. The settlement of Parţa maybe had 1575 people living there at the same time.

The Proto-Indo-Europeans were the speakers of the Proto-Indo-European language (PIE), an unattested but now reconstructed prehistoric language.
Knowledge of them comes chiefly from the linguistic reconstruction, along with material evidence from archaeology and archaeogenetics. Linguistic reconstruction is fraught with significant uncertainties and room for speculation, and PIE speakers cannot be assumed to have been a single, identifiable people or tribe. Rather, they were a group of loosely related populations ancestral to the later, still partially prehistoric, Bronze Age Indo-Europeans.
The Proto-Indo-Europeans in this sense likely lived during the Copper Age, or roughly the 5th to 4th millennia BC. Mainstream scholarship places them in the general region of the Pontic-Caspian steppe in Eastern Europe and Central Asia. Some scholars would extend the time depth of PIE or Pre-PIE to the Neolithic or even the last glacial maximum, and suggest alternative location hypotheses.
By the mid-2nd millennium BC offshoots of the Proto-Indo-Europeans had reached Anatolia, the Aegean, Northern India, and likely Western Europe.

The Chauvet-Pont-d'Arc Cave in the Ardèche department of southern France is a cave that contains some of the earliest known cave paintings, as well as other evidence of Upper Paleolithic life. It is located near the commune of Vallon-Pont-d'Arc on a limestone cliff above the former bed of the Ardèche River, in the Gorges de l'Ardèche. Discovered on December 18, 1994, it is considered one of the most significant prehistoric art sites.
The cave was first explored by a group of three speleologists: Eliette Brunel-Deschamps, Christian Hillaire, and Jean-Marie Chauvet for whom it was named. Chauvet (1996) has a detailed account of the discovery. In addition to the paintings and other human evidence, they also discovered fossilized remains, prints, and markings from a variety of animals, some of which are now extinct. Further study by French archaeologist Jean Clottes has revealed much about the site. The dates have been a matter of dispute but a study published in 2012 supports placing the art in the Aurignacian period, approximately 30,000--32,000 BP.
The cave is situated above the previous course of the Ardèche River before the Pont d'Arc opened up. The gorges of the Ardèche region are the site of numerous caves, many of them having some geological or archaeological importance. The Chauvet Cave is uncharacteristically large and the quality, quantity, and condition of the artwork found on its walls have been called spectacular. Based on radiocarbon dating, the cave appears to have been used by humans during two distinct periods: the Aurignacian and the Gravettian. Most of the artwork dates to the earlier, Aurignacian, era (30,000 to 32,000 years ago). The later Gravettian occupation, which occurred 25,000 to 27,000 years ago, left little but a child's footprints, the charred remains of ancient hearths, and carbon smoke stains from torches that lit the caves. After the child's visit to the cave, evidence suggests that due to a landslide which covered its historical entrance, the cave had been untouched until it was discovered in 1994. The footprints may be the oldest human footprints that can be dated accurately.
The soft, clay-like floor of the cave retains the paw prints of cave bears along with large, rounded, depressions that are believed to be the "nests" where the bears slept.
Hundreds of animal paintings have been catalogued, depicting at least 13 different species, including some rarely or never found in other ice age paintings. Rather than depicting only the familiar herbivores that predominate in Paleolithic cave art, i.e. horses, cattle, mammoths, etc., the walls of the Chauvet Cave feature many predatory animals, e.g., cave lions, panthers, bears, and cave hyenas.
Typical of most cave art, there are no paintings of complete human figures, although there is one partial "Venus" figure composed of a vulva attached to an incomplete pair of legs. Above the Venus, and in contact with it, is a bison head, which has led some to describe the composite drawing as a Minotaur. There are a few panels of red ochre hand prints and hand stencils made by spitting pigment over hands pressed against the cave surface. Abstract markings—lines and dots—are found throughout the cave. There are also two unidentifiable images that have a vaguely butterfly or avian shape to them. This combination of subjects has led some students of prehistoric art and cultures to believe that there was a ritual, shamanic, or magical aspect to these paintings.
The artists who produced these unique paintings used techniques rarely found in other cave art. Many of the paintings appear to have been made only after the walls were scraped clear of debris and concretions, leaving a smoother and noticeably lighter area upon which the artists worked. Similarly, a three-dimensional quality and the suggestion of movement are achieved by incising or etching around the outlines of certain figures. The art is also exceptional for its time for including "scenes", e.g., animals interacting with each other; a pair of woolly rhinoceroses, for example, are seen butting horns in an apparent contest for territory or mating rights.
Dating
The cave contains some of the oldest known cave paintings, based on radiocarbon dating of "black from drawings, from torch marks and from the floors", according to Jean Clottes. Clottes concludes that the "dates fall into two groups, one centered around 27,000--26,000 BP and the other around 32,000--30,000 BP." As of 1999, the dates of 31 samples from the cave had been reported. The earliest, sample Gifa 99776 from "zone 10", dates to 32,900 ± 490 BP.

Vast Stone Age cult complex discovery may be prehistoric Europe's largest building
Archaeologists have unearthed a prehistoric cult complex in Bulgaria which dates back some 7,500 years. Researchers have described the Palaeolithic settlement as "possibly Prehistoric Europe's largest stone building". Archaeologists working on the site have found traces of about 1400 graves. Another building contained cult artefacts, Archaeology in Bulgaria reports.
It once covered an area of over 200 square metres, although this could rise to 400 square metres if archaeologists prove that it had two floors. The researchers said that the structure collapsed because of an earthquake but were able to identify a kiln which was in use for 80 years.
The settlement is located on the Big Island in the Durankulak Lake in the North East of Bulgaria. Excavations of the peninsula began in the 1970s when researchers found what they believe was Europe's first stone city, which originates from around 5500-5400BC when the Neolithic Hamangia-Durankulak Culture was in full effect.
Petar Zidarov, an archaeologist from New Bulgarian University in Sofia, told Archaeology in Bulgaria: "The challenge we are now facing is to reveal the sequence of the layers, or the stages of life, in one of the most monumental buildings ever in prehistoric Europe. The people who lived in this place were not just excellent builders but they were also among the first people in the world who started to smelt metals such as native copper and native gold, to forge jewels out of them, and to trade with them as far as the Mediterranean coast."
Уникално култово съоръжение на 7500 години откри екип от археолози на големия остров в Дуранкулак.Тук се намира една от най-старите праисторически култури в Европа, открита още през 70-те години. След повече от 11 години прекъсване разкопките продължиха през това лято и извадиха на повърхността нови артифакти на каменния град в езерото. През тези дни археолозите откриха може би, най-голямата известна до момента каменна сграда в Европа, както и пещ, която е била използвана близо 80 години. В близко помещение са намерени различни култови предмети. Сградата е била срутена при земетресение и опожарена.

Vast Stone Age cult complex discovery may be prehistoric Europe's largest building
Archaeologists have unearthed a prehistoric cult complex in Bulgaria which dates back some 7,500 years. Researchers have described the Palaeolithic settlement as "possibly Prehistoric Europe's largest stone building". Archaeologists working on the site have found traces of about 1400 graves. Another building contained cult artefacts, Archaeology in Bulgaria reports.
It once covered an area of over 200 square metres, although this could rise to 400 square metres if archaeologists prove that it had two floors. The researchers said that the structure collapsed because of an earthquake but were able to identify a kiln which was in use for 80 years.
The settlement is located on the Big Island in the Durankulak Lake in the North East of Bulgaria. Excavations of the peninsula began in the 1970s when researchers found what they believe was Europe's first stone city, which originates from around 5500-5400BC when the Neolithic Hamangia-Durankulak Culture was in full effect.
Petar Zidarov, an archaeologist from New Bulgarian University in Sofia, told Archaeology in Bulgaria: "The challenge we are now facing is to reveal the sequence of the layers, or the stages of life, in one of the most monumental buildings ever in prehistoric Europe. The people who lived in this place were not just excellent builders but they were also among the first people in the world who started to smelt metals such as native copper and native gold, to forge jewels out of them, and to trade with them as far as the Mediterranean coast."
Уникално култово съоръжение на 7500 години откри екип от археолози на големия остров в Дуранкулак.Тук се намира една от най-старите праисторически култури в Европа, открита още през 70-те години. След повече от 11 години прекъсване разкопките продължиха през това лято и извадиха на повърхността нови артифакти на каменния град в езерото. През тези дни археолозите откриха може би, най-голямата известна до момента каменна сграда в Европа, както и пещ, която е била използвана близо 80 години. В близко помещение са намерени различни култови предмети. Сградата е била срутена при земетресение и опожарена. Каменният град от Дуранкулак е световноизвестен паметник на културата и дава представа какви са били хората от каменно-медната епоха.Праисторическото селище на острова е от така наречената култура Хаманджия 4, проучвана близо 40 години от проф.

An archaeologist studying a Celtic burial mound in Germany has discovered that it was not only a grave site, but a huge astronomical chronometer. The prince's grave at its center is part of a gigantic calendar. With the help of technology developed by NASA the researcher found that the arrangement of the other 130 graves in the tumulus correspond to the constellations in the northern night sky. The Celtic lunar calendar may be proof of the astronomical sophistication of a European culture long before the Roman era.

Giant prehistoric scavenger may have prevented spread of early humans into Europe

Early humans are thought to have first ventured into Europe around 1.4 million years ago, but failed to spread far across the continent.
Exactly why these first members of the Homo family to arrive in Europe were unable to press home their advantage while later members of the family like the Neanderthals and modern man did, has puzzled anthropologists for decades.
Now paleontologists claim to have identified a possible cause for this early failure – a giant prehistoric hyena called Pachycrocouta brevirostris.
They claim to have found evidence that this ferocious creature, which was more than twice the size of modern spotted hyenas in Africa, would have dominated Western Europe at the time.
It would have directly competed with early humans like Homo antecessor, which were the first Hominids believed to arrive in Europe, for food left behind by predators.
Previously anthropologists have suggested these early human species were unable to cope with the swings in climate that occurred in Europe during the early Pliestocene.
However, according to Joan Madurell-Malapeira, from the Catalan Institute of Palaeontology at the Autonomous University of Barcelona, and his colleagues, have say it is likely competition with scavengers was the limiting factor.
Writing in the journal Quaternary International, they said: 'Food acquisition must have been one of the key problems for the first human populations of temperate Europe, where meat and fat consumption during the winter was a major limiting factor.
'This probably induced hominins to develop scavenging strategies focused on ungulate carcasses.
'This niche was probably occupied by both Pachycrocuta and early Homo.
'During the Late Villafranchian (around 1.4-1.2 million years ago), the climatic conditions remained stable and the existing open environments probably favoured the dispersal of early Homo into the Mediterranean Europe.
'However, the presence of large predators, such as saber-toothed felids and the giant hyaenid P. brevirostris, was probably a limiting factor for food acquisition for these hominins.'
The researchers studied two sites close the city of Terrassa in north east Spain, known as the Vallparadis.
The sites, which contain hundreds of bones from large mammals, date from around the time when Homo antecessor is thought to have been living in caves in Spain.
The researchers found Pachycrocouta brevirostris was responsible for most of the huge assemblage of large mammal bones at the site of Venta Micena in Spain.
Standing nearly 4 feet tall and weighing up to 30 stone, the giant scavenger could easily have over powered early humans.
These giants used their powerful jaws to crack open bones to obtain the rich marrow inside, leaving distinct marks on the bones.
The researchers said these creatures were able to thrive as large predators like the sabretooth cat Meganteron whitei were unable consume all of the meat from large herbivores due to its ungainly teeth.
The researchers said: 'These early human populations likely competed for these carcasses directly with very powerful carnivorans such as saber-toothed felids, Pachycrocuta and, probably pack hunting lycaons, the jaguar P. gombaszoegensis, the giant cheetah Acinonyx pardinensis and the puma-like cat P. pardoides, among others, by means of confrontational scavenging.'

Discovery of Prehistoric Grave Site Reveals the World’s Oldest Massacre

The chance discovery of a mass grave crammed with the battered skeletons of ancient Europeans has shed light on the lethal violence that tore through one of the continent’s earliest farming communities.
In 2006, archaeologists were called in after road builders in Germany uncovered a narrow ditch filled with human bones as they worked at a site in Schöneck-Kilianstädten, 20km north-east of Frankfurt.
They have now identified the remains as belonging to a 7000-year-old group of early farmers who were part of the Linear Pottery culture, which gained its name from the group’s distinctive style of ceramic decoration.
In the seven metre-long, V-shaped pit, researchers found the skeletons of 26 adults and children, who were killed by devastating strikes to the head or arrow wounds. The skull fractures are classic signs of blunt force injuries caused by basic stone age weapons.
Along with close-quarter fighting, attackers used bows and arrows to ambush their neighbours. Two arrowheads made of animal bone were found in the soil stuck to the skeletons. They are thought to have been inside the bodies when they were placed in the pit.
More than half of the individuals had their legs broken in acts of apparent torture or posthumous mutilation. The smashed-in shin bones could represent a new form of violent torture not seen before in the group.
In the Linear Pottery culture, each person was given their own grave within a cemetery, the body carefully arranged and often buried with grave goods such as pottery and other possessions. By contrast, in the mass grave the bodies lay scattered.
Advertisement
Christian Meyer, an archaeologist who led the study at the University of Mainz, believes the attackers meant to terrorise others and demonstrate that they could annihilate an entire village. The site of the mass grave, which dates back to about 5000BC, is located near an ancient border between different communities, where conflict was likely.
“On one hand you are curious about finding out more about this, but also shocked to see what people can do to each other,” he said. Details of the study are reported in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.
In the 1980s, a number of similar mass graves were found in Talheim, Germany, and Asparn, Austria. The latest grim discovery bolsters evidence for prehistoric warfare in the final years of the culture, and points to torture and mutilation not recorded before.
“This is a classic case where we find the ‘hardware’: the skeletal remains, the artefacts, everything that is durable we can find in the graves. But the ‘software’: what people were thinking, why they were doing things, what their mindset was at this time, of course was not preserved,” Meyer said.
The scientists’ best guess is that a small farming village was massacred and thrown into a pit nearby. The skeletons of young women were absent from the grave, which suggests that the attackers may have taken the women captive after killing their families .
It is likely that fighting broke out over limited farming resources, upon which people depended for survival. Unlike their nomadic hunter-gatherer ancestors, people of the Linear Pottery culture settled into a farming lifestyle. Communities cleared forests to farm crops and lived in timber longhouses alongside their livestock.
The landscape soon became full of farming communities, putting a strain on natural resources. Along with adverse climate change and drought, this led to tension and conflict. In acts of collective violence, communities would come together to massacre their neighbours and take their land by force.
Lawrence Keeley, an anthropologist at the University of Illinois in Chicago, said that alongside Talheim and Asparn, this latest massacre discovery fits a pattern of common and murderous warfare. “The only reasonable interpretation of these cases, as here, is that a whole typically-sized Linear Pottery culture hamlet or small village was wiped out by killing the majority of its inhabitants and kidnapping the young women. This represents yet another nail in the coffin of those who have claimed that war was rare or ritualised or less awful in prehistory or, in this instance, the early Neolithic.”
But he is doubtful that the victims’ legs were broken through acts of torture. “Torture focuses on the parts of the body with the most nerve cells: the feet, pubis, hands and head. I can’t think of anywhere that torture involved breaking the tibia.
“This is rank speculation, but there are ethnographic instances of disabling the ghost or spirits of the dead, especially enemies. Such mutilations were done to prevent enemy spirits from following home, haunting or doing mischief to the killers.” he added.

Prehistoric Settlements of Europe: Starčevo–Kőrös–Criş Culture 6200/5500 - 4500 BC
The Starčevo–Kőrös–Criş culture is a common name for a grouping of three related Neolithic archaeological cultures in Southeastern Europe: the Starčevo culture,...
The Starčevo–Kőrös–Criş culture is a common name for a grouping of three related Neolithic archaeological cultures in Southeastern Europe: the Starčevo culture, the Kőrös culture, and the Criş culture.
The Starčevo culture is an archaeological culture of Southeastern Europe, dating to the Neolithic period between c. 5500 and 4500 BCE (according to other source, between 6200 and 5200 BCE). The Starčevo culture is sometimes grouped together and sometimes not.
The Kőrös culture is another Neolithic archaeological culture, but in Central Europe, that was named after the river Körös in eastern Hungary.
The Criş culture, in what is now Romania, survived from about 5800 to 5300 BC, and is the same culture as Kőrös. The different names for the two stem from different names for the same river. The river named Körös in Hungary becomes the Criş river in Romania.
The village of Starčevo, the type site, is located on the north bank of the Danube in Serbia (Vojvodina province), opposite Belgrade. It represents the earliest settled farming society in the area, although hunting and gathering still provided a significant portion of the inhabitants' diet.
The pottery is usually coarse but finer fluted and painted vessels later emerged. A type of bone spatula, perhaps for scooping flour, is a distinctive artifact. The Kőrös is a similar culture in Hungary named after the River Kőrös with a closely related culture which also used footed vessels but fewer painted ones. Both have given their names to the wider culture of the region in that period.
Parallel and closely related cultures also include the Karanovo culture in Bulgaria, Criş in Romania and the pre-Sesklo in Greece.
The Starčevo culture covered sizable area that included most of present-day Serbia and Montenegro, as well as parts of Bosnia and Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Croatia, Hungary, Republic of Macedonia and Romania. [
The westernmost locality of this culture can be found in Croatia, in the vicinity of Ždralovi, a part of the town of Bjelovar. This was the final stage of the culture. Findings from Ždralovi belong to a regional subtype of the final variant in the long process of development of that Neolithic culture. It is designated as Ždralovi facies of the Starčevo culture or the Starčevo - Final stages.[citation needed]
There are different opinions about the ethno-linguistic origin of the people of Starčevo culture.

Archaeological excavations at the site of Lepenski Vir on the Danube Serbia. Video from "Lepenski Vir" Dunav film 1968.
Lepenski Vir (Лепенски Вир, Lepen Whirl) is an important Mesolithic archaeological site located in Serbia in central Balkan peninsula. The latest radiocarbon and AMS data suggests that the chronology of Lepenski Vir is compressed between 9500/7200-6000 BC. There is some disagreement about the early start of the settlement and culture of Lepenskir vir. But the latest data suggest 9500-7200 to be the start. The late Lepenskir Vir (6300-6000 B.C.) architectural development was the development of the Trapezoidal buildings and monumental sculpture. The Lepenskir Vir site consists of one large settlement with around ten satellite villages. Numerous piscine sculptures and peculiar architecture are testimony to a rich social and religious life led by the inhabitants and the high cultural level of these early Europeans.
Lepenski Vir is located on the banks of the Danube in eastern Serbia, within the Iron Gates gorge, near Donji Milanovac. The first excavations were made on the site in 1965. In 1966 it was listed as a cultural monument of Yugoslavia. It was only in 1967 that its importance was fully understood after the discovery of the first Mesolithic sculptures. The excavations ended in 1971 when the whole site was relocated 29.7m higher to avoid flooding from a new artificial lake created in the Iron Gates gorge. The main contribution to exploration of this site was through the work of professor Dragoslav Srejović of the University of Belgrade. 136 buildings, settlements and altars were found in the initial excavations in 1965-1970.

Butmir is the oldest and best-known late Stone Age archaeological site in Bosnia and Herzegovina. It was discovered in 1893 and represents the entire cultural group of the late Neolithic in central Bosnia as “the Butmir culture” (Butmir gruppe, Butmir group). The original spiritual culture of its inhabitants places archaeology of Bosnia and Herzegovina on a par with archaeology in Europe .
On the basis of absolute chronology, the assumption is that the settlement was inhabited from 5500 to 4500 BC. It was part of the larger Old Europe, Danube civilization.
The basis of the prehistoric economy of Butmir was agriculture and animal husbandry .Hunting and fishing ,as well as gathering wild plant foods ,were still an important part of daily life, however. Every activity associated with food processing, using well established processes, was imbued with religious content.
The most pronounced manifestation of the religious beliefs of agricultural communities world-wide is fertility cult. Figurines, predominantly female, and decorative designs on pottery vessels, are clear evidence of the presence of this cult in Butmir. During the time of the classic Butmir culture (Butmir II ), a specific artistic style evolved as regards the shape and decoration of pottery vessels, in which spiral and banded designs are particularly distinctive, while sculpting of figurines reached a high level of artistry. Here, at a particular point in time, in evolution of culture, a nexus of powerful aesthetic and religious sentiment reveal itself.

A prehistoric cult complex dating back 7,500 years has been unearthed in Bulgaria.
Researchers have described the Palaeolithic settlement as including 'possibly Prehistoric Europe's largest stone building'.
The building once covered an area of over 2,153 square feet - larger than a singles match tennis court - although archaeologists suspect the building had two floors, meaning it could be closer to 4,306 square feet.
The remains of the settlement, which is thought to have collapsed due to an earthquake, were uncovered on the 'big island' of Durankulak Lake, a 1.3 square mile lagoon in the north east of Bulgaria.
Excavations at the site, known as 'Dobrudzha Troy' started in the 1970s when artefacts dating back to around 10,000 BC were discovered, along with evidence of the Neolithic settlement, Archaeology in Bulgaria reported.
However, this summer, archaeologists unearthed a huge building containing a kiln, which they believe was used for around 80 years.
Built in the Chalcolithic, or copper age, the building is thought to have later collapsed as the result of an earthquake.
Petar Zidarov, an archaeologist from New Bulgarian University in Sofia told Bulgarian National Television: 'The challenge we are now facing is to reveal the sequence of the layers, or the stages of life, in one of the most monumental buildings ever in prehistoric Europe.'
It is possible the huge building had two floors.
Speaking about technology at the time, he added: 'The people who lived in this place were not just excellent builders but they were also among the first people in the world who started to smelt metals such as native copper and native gold, to forge jewels out of them, and to trade with them as far as the Mediterranean coast.'
The team also discovered a building nearby with cult objects.
The remains of the buildings make up what is thought to be Europe's first stone city, which was built in around 5500BC when the Neolithic Hamangia-Durankulak Culture was dominant.
Finds at the site range from the Paleolithic Age, 10,000 years ago to the Middle Ages.
Prehistoric remains date from the first sedentary agricultural culture in Europe, which created Europe's first stone buildings.
It is the only fully researched archaeological site from the time of Trojan War on the Balkan Peninsula.
'The people who lived in this place were not just excellent builders but they were also among the first people in the world who started to smelt metals such as native copper and native gold, to forge jewels out of them, and to trade with them as far as the Mediterranean coast,' Zidarov adds.
Archaeologists have previously found what is believed to be the world's largest Palaeolithic-Neolithic necropolis at the site, containing traces of around 1,400 graves as old as 5,300BC.

Scientists say they have found rare evidence of a prehistoric massacre in Europe after discovering a 7,000-year-old mass grave with skeletal remains from some of the continent's first farmers bearing terrible wounds.
Archaeologists painstakingly examined the bones of some 26 men, women and children buried in the Stone Age grave site at Schoeneck-Kilianstaedten, near Frankfurt.
They say they found blunt force marks to the head, arrow wounds and deliberate efforts to smash at least half of the victims' shins - either to stop them from running away or as a grim message to survivors.
'It was either torture or mutilation,' said Christian Meyer, one of the authors of the study published Monday in the journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.
'We can't say for sure whether the victims were still alive,'Meyer said the findings from Schoeneck-Kilianstaedten bolster theories put forward after the earlier discovery of two other grave sites in Germany and Austria.
At all three sites, the victims and the perpetrators appeared to have been from the Linearbandkeramik — or LBK — culture, a farming people who arrived in central Europe about 5,500 B.C.
Their name derives from the German phrase for 'linear band ceramics,' a reference to the style of their pottery.
Intriguingly, the sites have all been dated toward the end of the LBK's 600-year presence, suggesting that members of this culture - which is thought to have developed in what is now Hungary and spread along the Danube River - may have turned on each other.

When first published in 1928, The Age of the Gods was hailed as the best short account of what is known of pre-historic man and culture. In it, Christopher Dawson synthesized modern scholarship on human cultures in Europe and the East from the Stone Age to the beginnings of the Iron Age. His focus was not merely on the material development of early society but more intently on the social and spiritual development of man that accompanied it. Piece by piece, Dawson fit together the varied influences that brought into being the ancient foundations on which modern civilization was built.Published soon after World War I, the book uncovered the common tradition and unity of culture of European civilization in hope of bringing cooperation and peace to the people of Europe. It defined what a culture is, how cultures change, and what constitutes progress. Dawson consulted the studies of archaeologists, early historians, anthropologists, and ethnologists, and presented an uncommonly balanced and greatly admired survey of the whole. Presented here with a new introduction by Dermot Quinn, The Age of the Gods continues the popular Works of Christopher Dawson series. Among other topics, the book sketches the glacial age and the beginnings of human life, the Paleolithic and Neolithic cultures and the rise of the peasant culture in Europe, the development of Sumerian culture, the archaic culture of Egypt, the megalithic culture in Western Europe, the age of empire in the Near East, the Bronze Age in Central Europe, the formation of the Indo-European peoples, the Mycenaean culture of Greece, and the beginnings of the Iron Age in Europe. ABOUT THE AUTHOR:Christopher Dawson (1889-1970) is recognized as one of the most important Catholic historians of the twentieth century, authoring numerous books, articles, and scholarly monographs. Dawson was lecturer in the History of Culture, University College, Exeter; Gifford lecturer; Charles Chauncey Stillman Chair of Roman Catholic Studies at Harvard University from 1958 to 1962; and editor of the Dublin Review.

Elsley Zeitlyn Lecture on Chinese Archaeology and Culture, held at the British Academy for the Humanities and Social Sciences on February 17 in London.
Within the crop record of prehistoric Europe record can be found a few species whose botanical roots can be traced to China. Principal among these are the Asian millets, which appear in the west well before cultural contact is better charted by metalwork and other artefacts. In the absence of such evidence, we can instead use methods of archaeological science, including botany, genetics and palaeodietary studies, to understand better this early movement of crops.
This lecture presented the results of a combination of these methods, applied across Eurasia, within the Food Globalisation in Prehistory project.
About the speaker:
Martin Jones is George Pitt-Rivers Professor of Archaeological Science, and Vice-Master of Darwin College, both at the University of Cambridge, and Honorary Professor at Chifeng University, Neimenggu, China. His recent books include The Molecule Hunt: Archaeology and the Search for Ancient DNA, and Feast: Why Humans Share Food.

Neanderthals fascinate us: so much like us, yet not quite us. We have long known that they overlapped with modern humans in prehistoric Europe, but recent genetic evidence suggests widespread interbreeding of the two groups. University of Wisconsin biological anthropologist John Hawks is at the forefront of this species-shaking research. He presents the latest findings from the lab and field and discusses what may or may not make us uniquely human.
This program is presented in partnership with the Center for the Humanities and the Institute for Research in the Humanities at the University of Wisconsin at Madison.

Advanced Prehistoric Ice Age Civilizations explores evidence of ancient, technologically advanced prehistoric civilizations and city-states, some of which are suggested to have submerged when the Ice Age ended. Hypotheses range from Sea Kings that navigated the Pacific and settled in Ice Age Europe to evidence that ancient peoples measured and mapped the globe to possible astral extensions of mankind. Drawing upon both conventional and metaphysical science, Ice Age Civilizations reminds the reader of myriad mysteries that contemporary classroom education cannot begin to fully explain.
What if the ancient history we all learned in school was incomplete? What was human history before the Romans or Egypt or Greece? What if our ancient ancestors where far more advanced than we are lead to believe? What if there is evidence of their advancements and civilization?
James Nienhuis addresses some of these questions in this informative and interesting interview.

Greeks Romans Vikings The Founders Of Europe - Episode 1: The Greeks - History Documentary HD. Ancient Greece, the cradle of modern Europe. Around 3000 years ago, the cultural foundations of western civilisation were laid right here, on the shores of the Mediterranean. It’s the birthplace of democracy, where great thinkers forged the beginnings of scientific reasoning, where theatre was turned into mass entertainment, and where the Olympic Games began. Imaginative animation, stunning visuals and an entertaining narrative combine in an extraordinary exploration of Greece and the rise of an ancient super-power that would leave a permanent mark on society. Good SBS documentary, from Germany, in German & Greek. Please be merciful with the parts where Greeks (who don't really look like Greeks but rather like Middle Easterns) speak German... :)
........................................................
The legacy of the Greeks is under assault today thus deserves defence and celebration for the simple reason that much of what we are is the result of that brilliant examination of human life first begun by the Greeks; as Jacob Burckhardt says, "We see with the eyes of the Greeks and use their phrases when we speak." We must listen to the Greeks not because they will give us answers, but because they first identified the questions and problems, and they knew too where the answers must come from: the minds of free human beings who have control over their own lives. And this, finally, is the greatest good we have received from the Greeks: the gift of freedom.
The Greeks are accused by some of stealing their achievements from Egyptians and Babylonians, of oppressing their wives and daughters, and of hypocritically speculating about freedom while holding slaves. And that is the greatest irony: the spirit of criticism that among so many academics has fossilized into a pose has its origins nowhere but among the Greeks, who were the first to question critically everything from the gods to political power to their very selves, the first to live what Socrates called “the examined life”.
As Victor Hanson and John Heath write, “Not one of the multicultural classicists really wishes to live under indigenous pre–Colombian ideas of government, Arabic protocols for female behaviour, Chinese canons of medical ethics, Islamic traditions of church and state, African approaches to science, Japanese ideas of race, Indian social castes, or Native American notions of private property.”
Classic Greek culture has come under attack precisely because its achievement, extended into history, is what defines the West and makes it distinct. What is valuable in the much abused Western tradition, hence the examined life, the pursuit of truth, the dialogue about the place of the individual in the larger group, comes from the Greeks. Humanism, reason, the pursuit of knowledge and the arts, moderation and civic responsibility, all come from the Greeks.
The failings of the Greeks, including not living up to their own ideals, are the failings of humanity everywhere. But their ideals, still alive today, led to the recognition of a common humanity that was more important than gender or social status, more profound than local or tribal affiliations. Without this insight, slavery might never have been abolished in the West, women might never have been granted equality, and the liberal notion that all humans possess innate rights merely as a virtue of being human would never have existed.

Timothy Darvill
Stonehenge in central southern England is known the world over as an iconic symbol of Europe's prehistoric past. In this lecture Professor Timothy Darvill of Bournemouth University, UK, will show that while Stonehenge's origins as a ceremonial monument were conventional enough its later history was exceptional. Key to the transformation was the arrival of about 80 pillars of Bluestone rock brought a distance of around 250km from the Preseli Hills of southwest Wales to Salisbury Plain. But why were these stones important? And what did they mean to Neolithic people? Using archaeological evidence from Stonehenge itself and from recent work in the Preseli Hills, and folklore and oral tradition dating back to the 13th century AD, a new picture of Stonehenge is emerging in which the stones themselves can be seen to have perceived magical properties connected with healing. Their re-use in later and ever more elaborate structures at Stonehenge show something of their power and significance and illustrate how the landscape of the Preseli Hills is constructed in microcosm at Stonehenge. People were attracted to the area from continental Europe, and what started out as a local focus became a celebrated place for prehistoric pilgrimage.

LOST ON THE ATLANTIC
Crossing the Ocean in a Stone Age Reed Boat.
50’ HD documentary
German biologist and experimental archaeologist Dominiqu Goerlitz has a dream - to prove that Stone Age man could have sailed a tiny reed boat across the Atlantic from Europe to the New World - and back again!
In July 2007 Dominique and 11 sailors from four countries set out from New York harbour to test his theory. Their 10-metre boat, the Abora III, a reed vessel constructed in Bolivia from Goerltitz’s interpretation of prehistoric rock carvings in Europe and North Africa.
Back in the 60s, legendary explorer Thor Heyerdahl crossed the Atlantic like this from West to East. But experts had said it was impossible to come back against the wind.
But Goerlitz’s rock carvings suggest Stone Age man had lee-boards to sail against the wind, navigated by the stars and could use the Gulf Stream to carry them westwards
Prehistoric men from Europe could have colonised and traded with the Americas thousands of years before Columbus! That would explain why tobacco seeds - found only in the Americas, were detected in the mummies of Egyptian Pharaohs like Ramses II.
Abora III has been thoroughly tested in model form using the latest technology. It should be more than up to the task of crossing 1,500 nautical miles of sometimes wild ocean.
Under a warm sun and a steady breeze, the voyage starts well. But then things go wrong. One after another the leeboards snap, unable to resist the pressure of the Atlantic swell. Abora III was riding high when it left New York. Now she begins to sink into the ocean as the reeds absorb salt water.
Sudden and unexpected Atlantic storms weaken and then tear off the Abora’s stern. In spite of the crew’s efforts - ceaselessly tightening the reed bundles that form the Abora’s hull - they have to abandon ship 600 sea miles short off the Azores, near the African coast. Abora III had sailed for 59 days and covered more than 900 nautical miles.
The expedition failed. But one experiment did work. Abora trailed behind her, seeds from the New World that somehow found their way east thousands of years ago. Traditionally it is believed that they floated across the ocean. But Goerlitz’s saturated seeds refused to germinate in Europe. Dominique believes this is proof they could only have been brought by man.
This is a sweet, thrilling and spectacular film, in which 11 people risk everything to prove that our forefathers knew so much more than we ever believed. If Stone Age man had half the courage of Abora III’s crew, they certainly deserved to succeed!
And Dominique Goerlitz is not giving up. Abora IV is already on the drawing board…

LOST ON THE ATLANTIC
Crossing the Ocean in a Stone Age Reed Boat.
50’ HD documentary
German biologist and experimental archaeologist Dominiqu Goerlitz has a dream - to prove that Stone Age man could have sailed a tiny reed boat across the Atlantic from Europe to the New World - and back again!
In July 2007 Dominique and 11 sailors from four countries set out from New York harbour to test his theory. Their 10-metre boat, the Abora III, a reed vessel constructed in Bolivia from Goerltitz’s interpretation of prehistoric rock carvings in Europe and North Africa.
Back in the 60s, legendary explorer Thor Heyerdahl crossed the Atlantic like this from West to East. But experts had said it was impossible to come back against the wind.
But Goerlitz’s rock carvings suggest Stone Age man had lee-boards to sail against the wind, navigated by the stars and could use the Gulf Stream to carry them westwards
Prehistoric men from Europe could have colonised and traded with the Americas thousands of years before Columbus! That would explain why tobacco seeds - found only in the Americas, were detected in the mummies of Egyptian Pharaohs like Ramses II.
Abora III has been thoroughly tested in model form using the latest technology. It should be more than up to the task of crossing 1,500 nautical miles of sometimes wild ocean.
Under a warm sun and a steady breeze, the voyage starts well. But then things go wrong. One after another the leeboards snap, unable to resist the pressure of the Atlantic swell. Abora III was riding high when it left New York. Now she begins to sink into the ocean as the reeds absorb salt water.
Sudden and unexpected Atlantic storms weaken and then tear off the Abora’s stern.
