Reading the Western Asian Neolithic through Differences

onliNEOLITHIC Talks

In these talks we focus on understanding the differences and variations of the Neolithic, a period that has been very often defined based on similarities. We share and discuss data and approaches produced by researchers working in different regions, and create a multi-vocal discussion network.

"Archaeologists nowadays revisit previous approaches or reevaluate sites excavated during the 1960s and ‘70s with the modern methods of the archaeological sciences. The stratigraphy, chronology, and terminology of the Neolithic research, in that sense, becomes a mound of data waiting to be excavated and analyzed with new methods. Recent research on the Neolithic aptly suggests the independent formation of this new lifeway in different regions. The presence of distinct communities sharing the same region and living under similar circumstances suggest the importance of understanding the diverse nature of the Neolithic."
