The Central/Western Anatolian Farming Frontier - Proceedings of the Neolithic Workshop held at 10th ICAANE in Vienna, April 2016

The transformation of societies from mobile hunter-gatherers into farming communities living in permanent villages represents one of the most essential revolutions in human history. The dispersal of this new Neolithic way of life from one of the core zones in central Anatolia into the west forms the focus of this book. The 13 contributions collected in this volume present a diverse and mosaic-like scenario of the Neolithic transformation processes and allow for the re-evaluation of long-established models in the field of Neolithic archaeology.
