AB  - Architectural, artefactual and subsistence evidence from sites of the Late Neolithic Vinča culture network (5400-4500
BC) in southeast Europe suggests that the autonomous household was the basic socio-economic unit. Archaeological
reconstructions posit that one or several adjacent buildings define individual households, and that these (groups of)
structures were the context of economic, social and ritual activities. How/where/when these activities were conducted
was likely defined at the communal level, prescribed by supra-household social controls and embedded in ideological
framework. Although no clear indications of social stratification are observable at Vinča culture sites, some interhousehold status competition would have been present and was negotiated through mechanisms such as sharing and
exchange, and communal works and events, the latter, for instance, documented by the faunal evidence of feasting.
Within the community-wide pattern of behaviour that ensured cohesion, social differentiation could have been
maintained through household-specific food-related practices, food choices and culinary traditions. These could have
served to emphasise individual affinities and identities, to delineate the smallest social units, without damaging the
sense of community. As such, they may have even been encouraged. In this presentation, we look at the archaeobotanical
and zooarchaeological evidence of food production and consumption from a selection of Vinča culture households, and
reconstruct the sources of food, their origin and seasonality. We compare the observations for individual cases, in order
to identify potential inter-household differences in the choice and use of (key) resources. We speculate on what effect
such differences could have had on the social fabric of the community: whether through them the social bonds were
strengthened, undermined, or both; and whether this was of relevance in the context of the dissolution of the Vinča
culture.

AB  - Triticum timopheevii sensu lato (‘new glume wheat’, NGW) was first recognised as a distinct prehistoric cereal crop through work on archaeobotanical finds from Neolithic and Bronze Age sites in northern Greece. This was later followed by its identification in archaeobotanical assemblages from other parts of Europe. This paper provides an overview of the currently known archaeobotanical finds of Timopheev’s wheat in southeastern and eastern Europe and observes their temporal span and spatial distribution. To date, there are 89 prehistoric sites with these finds, located in different parts of the study region and dated from the Neolithic to the very late Iron Age. Their latest recorded presence in the region is in the last centuries BCE. For assemblages from the site as a whole containing at least 30 grain and/or chaff remains of Timopheev’s wheat, we take a brief look at the overall relative proportions of Triticum monococcum (einkorn), T. dicoccum (emmer) and T. timopheevii s.l. (Timopheev’s wheat), the three most common glume wheats in our study region in prehistory. We highlight several sites where the overall proportions of Timopheev’s wheat might be taken to suggest it was a minor component of a mixed crop (maslin), or an unmonitored inclusion in einkorn or emmer fields. At the same sites, however, there are also discrete contexts where this wheat is strongly predominant, pointing to its cultivation as a pure crop. We therefore emphasise the need to evaluate the relative representation of Timopheev’s wheat at the level of individual samples or contexts before making inferences on its cultivation status. We also encourage re-examination of prehistoric and historic cereal assemblages for its remains.

AB  - The site of Drenovac in central Serbia has been extensively researched through several projects from the 1970s to
present. In recent years, application of geophysical survey significantly changed a course in the investigation of the
use of space and spatial patterning. It provided means for targeted excavations and research of specific features
– houses, non-domestic buildings, ditches, etc. Comparing different lines of evidence obtained through recent systematic
excavations and geophysical surveying, we will present the complex history of the settlement and its internal
organization.
Drenovac is a large and long-lived settlement inhabited in the Early (6100-5900 BC) and the Late Neolithic (5300-
4700/4500 BC), with thick cultural deposits and complex stratigraphy. Detecting changes in size and internal organization
of the settlement during this long occupation proved to be a difficult task. While data on the earlier phases of
occupation are still limited, extensive research of the latest building horizon (Vinča-Pločnik phase) provided valuable
data for research of the settlement’s spatial organization and architecture. Thus the focus of this presentation will
be on this phase. On the macro level, we will discuss the settlement’s size, layout and internal organization. We will
evaluate both natural and cultural factors that could affect the specific patterning of different features. On the micro
level, we will turn to the individual houses and their immediate surroundings, and make some observations about
space division and use.

AB  - In this presentation, we will provide an overview of various lines of evidence
related to fibre and textile production during the Late Neolithic in the Central
Balkans (Vinča culture, 5300–4500 BC). It will include a discussion on possible
plant fibre sources, i.e. plants identified in charred archaeobotanical
assemblages and as fibres, with special reference to flax (Linum usitatissimum).
Another aspect of this presentation is related to the technologies of fibre and
textile production. While the remains of textile are rarely found at Neolithic
settlements in the Balkans, its production and use has been documented
indirectly at the majority of them – in the form of spinning implements, loom
weights, bone tools, textile impressions in pottery and clay objects. Such finds
have been examined by different specialists as part of routine material and
typological studies; however, comprehensive analysis of their use in spinning and
weaving, making of clothes or any other related activity has been lacking.
Recently, there has been a change in the analytical approach and an increase in
the level of attention paid to different forms of evidence of textile production.
As a result, the story of technological know-how of textile making in Vinča
communities is slowly beginning to emerge.
By summing up the available records and information, we will reconstruct the
process of textile making – from procurement of fibre plants to the final product
– in the Late Neolithic of the Central Balkans. This will allow us to assess the role
of textile production in the socio-economic life of the Vinča communities, to infer
how this activity shaped everyday life as well as how it contributed to the transfer
of knowledge and social interactions.

AB  - Agronomic studies emphasise that agriculture is modelled by different groups of
factors that form complex and dynamic socio-ecological systems of agricultural
production. Biological by nature, this form of production is influenced by natural
environment, many aspects of which are not under farmer’s control, such as, for
instance, species suitability, (micro-)regional climate, pests and diseases.
Farming decisions are further shaped by economic goals, including ensuring
dietary sustenance and generating income. Finally, agricultural activities are
embedded in the social contexts created and reproduced by the farming
households and societies.
This presentation is concerned with plant-based agricultural production in the
Neolithic in the central part of the Balkan Peninsula. It observes how crop
cultivation practices varied between the settlements and how they changed
through the c. 1700-year long period (6200-4500 BC). Two transformational
developments punctuate this sequence: (1) transmission in the late 7th
millennium BC of the Early Neolithic farming practices northwards from the
Aegean and into the continental parts of the Balkan Peninsula. We track
adaptations that these practices underwent, as evidence of adjustment to local

regional socio-economic context known as the Starčevo culture; (2) emergence
of a new socio-economic context, the Vinča culture, in the 2nd half of the 6th
millennium BC, accompanied by new pottery technology and settlement pattern,
an apparent increase in the population size, and followed by the beginning of
extractive metallurgy at the turn of the millennia; we illustrate how changes in
crop production were one additional element of this general economic growth.
For archaeobotanical inferences on the adaptations and modifications in plant
production, we rely on the analysis of crop and wild diversity (=the range of
species and their relative abundance) in the assemblages from Starčevo and
Vinča culture sites in Serbia.

abstract = "Agronomic studies emphasise that agriculture is modelled by different groups of
factors that form complex and dynamic socio-ecological systems of agricultural
production. Biological by nature, this form of production is influenced by natural
environment, many aspects of which are not under farmer’s control, such as, for
instance, species suitability, (micro-)regional climate, pests and diseases.
Farming decisions are further shaped by economic goals, including ensuring
dietary sustenance and generating income. Finally, agricultural activities are
embedded in the social contexts created and reproduced by the farming
households and societies.
This presentation is concerned with plant-based agricultural production in the
Neolithic in the central part of the Balkan Peninsula. It observes how crop
cultivation practices varied between the settlements and how they changed
through the c. 1700-year long period (6200-4500 BC). Two transformational
developments punctuate this sequence: (1) transmission in the late 7th
millennium BC of the Early Neolithic farming practices northwards from the
Aegean and into the continental parts of the Balkan Peninsula. We track
adaptations that these practices underwent, as evidence of adjustment to local
environments and climate; such adaptations underpinned creation of the
regional socio-economic context known as the Starčevo culture; (2) emergence
of a new socio-economic context, the Vinča culture, in the 2nd half of the 6th
millennium BC, accompanied by new pottery technology and settlement pattern,
an apparent increase in the population size, and followed by the beginning of
extractive metallurgy at the turn of the millennia; we illustrate how changes in
crop production were one additional element of this general economic growth.
For archaeobotanical inferences on the adaptations and modifications in plant
production, we rely on the analysis of crop and wild diversity (=the range of
species and their relative abundance) in the assemblages from Starčevo and
Vinča culture sites in Serbia.",
