These are few sites about 10 000 BP in the early Neolithic period in North China; among these, the Donghulin site is the only one which included the remains of peoples' use of fire (hearth pits), stone implements, pottery objects, and human tombs. The excavation of the Donghulin site in 2001 provides very important information for research on people and culture in the early Neolithic period in North China. The finding of Donghulin Man has filled the gap in our knowledge of human development since the period of the "Upper Cave Man" (30 000a BP) in North China. It is also important for research on people-land relationships.

Thin Wedge

Parks of Garden, a Neolithic site in southern Scotland, is located within a thin wedge of peat which abuts a ridge of glacial moraine that stretches across the Upper Forth river valley. The site comprises a rapidly constructed small wooden platform dating to 3340–2920 cal BC, within the Early Neolithic period of Scotland. The platform may have functioned as a transitory hunting hide and as a preparation area for hunting and gathering expeditions across the fen and into the salt-marshes of the local environment.

The ancient fortified settlement of Amnya I is a unique Early Neolithic site in the northern taiga zone of Western Siberia (Khanty-Mansi Autonomous Okrug, the Amnya river). It is located on a promontory and has three lines of defense and ten dwelling depressions. The structures of the excavated dwellings are very similar, though the artifact assemblage appears rather heterogeneous. We carried out a technical and technological analysis of ceramics, which showed no correlation between the texture, on the one hand, and the morphology and ornamentation of pots on the other one. Planiographic analysis of ceramics showed that vessels with comb and incising patterns are found in different dwellings, although there are objects in which both groups lie together. Various categories of stone implements (bladelets and polished arrowheads) also appear on different parts of the settlement. Most likely, the observed differences in the artefact complexes of objects are associated with the stages of the functioning of the settlement. The absolute chronology does not yet clarify the sequence of erection and existence of objects. New AMS date is probably vulnerable to a significant reservoir effect. The abundance of unsolved issues of absolute and relative chronology makes the resumption of research on this unique site urgent.

Definition Of

Bone and charcoal samples from the Neolithic site of Serra Cicora in the Salento Peninsula (southern Italy) have been dated by accelerator mass spectrometry (AMS). Measurements appear to support other archaeological evidence and have shown that 2 distinct phases of human occupation of the site can be identified: the first occupation in the Early Neolithic and a second occupation in the Middle-Late Neolithic. The results provide new information and are a fundamental contribution to the definition of the absolute chronology of the Middle-Late Neolithic in this part of Europe.

В статье рассмотрена хронология неолитического памятника Новопетровка III в Западном Приамурье, установленная по данным радиоуглеродного датирования нагара на керамике. Новопетровская культура в целом, представленная памятниками Новопетровка I-III и Константиновка, исследованными в первой половине 1960-х гг., по результатам типологического анализа пластинчатой индустрии была отнесена к V (возможно, VI) — началу IV тыс. до н.э. Обзор данных по изготовлению призматических пластин с помощью отжимной техники показал, что хронологически пластинчатые индустрии появились на обширной территории Евразии в финале плейстоцена — начале голоцена и продолжали существовать в отдельных регионах вплоть до энеолита. Поэтому они могут служить лишь ориентиром в определении относительной хронологии памятников. С появлением в 1990-х гг. радиоуглеродных дат, полученных по органическому наполнителю в керамическом тесте и нагару на керамике с поселения Новопетровка II, новопетровская культура была удревнена до 15,5-10,8 тыс. л.н. (калиброванные значения). На основе сравнительного анализа новых радиоуглеродных дат, определенных по нагару, установлен возраст памятника Новопетровка III -9,0-9,5 тыс. лет. В связи с тем, что в археологическом материале с новопетровских поселений в рамках длительного периода изменений не выявлено, обозначена проблема хронологической оценки как новопетровской культуры в целом, так и ее отдельных памятников.
