From Ros to Prut: transformations of Trypillia settlements. Volume II

Abstract

The two volumes of STPAS 19 compile – under the title “From Ros to Prut, Transformations of Trypillia settlements” – archaeological, geophysical, archaeobotanical, archaeozoological and geoarchaeological contributions on the economy, settlement patterns, material culture and dating of Chalcolithic societies in the territory of present-day Ukraine and Moldova. Organised across three test regions spanning an East-West transect, the two volumes bring together in-depth investigations of selected key sites and regional reconstructions (Volumes 1 and 2), which are used as the basis for a cross-regional comparison (Volume 2). This comparison, based on the many pieces of the puzzle compiled here for the different test regions, enable a deeper understanding of the particularities, but also the overarching commonalities, in the process of socio-ecological transformations of the Trypillia societies and their environment in diachronic perspective, as well as on spatial scale. Volume 2 contains contributions on the interfluves of the Southern Bug and Dniester, and the Dniester and Prut. Additionally, it provide&regtonally overarching insights.Том 2 містить дослідження міжріччя Південного Бугу та Дністра, а також Дністра та Прута. Крім того, він надає загальні регіональні висновки.
