The Early Neolithic osseous industry in the Iron Gates region
Апстракт
The Iron Gates region represents a unique geographical and historical micro region, inhabited in the past by numerous communities. Large-scale rescue excavations carried out from the 1960s to the 1980s revealed very rich and important archaeological remains, from the Palaeolithic up to the modern times. These include the first traces from the Mesolithic period in the area, as well as finds from the transitional and Early Neolithic periods, both important for understanding the Neolithisation processes. In this paper will be presented the osseous industries from three Early Neolithic sites in the region downstream the Gorges proper, sites that were excavated during the “Đerdap II“ rescue archaeological project – Ušće Kameničkog Potoka, Knjepište and Velesnica. Raw material selection, technological procedures and typological repertoire will be analysed. Osseous industry shows an interesting mixture of Mesolithic traditions and Neolithic innovations with some regionally specific traits.
