The Neolithic of South Sweden: TRB, GRK, and STRRoyal Swedish Academy of Letters, History and Antiquities, 2002 - 284 sider This is a detailed study of the Neolithic cultures of South Sweden c.4000-2400 BC: the Funnel Beaker culture (TRB), the Pitted Ware culture (GRK) and the Battle Axe culture (STR). Malmer presents a wealth of archaeological evidence and interpretation for the three great successive periods of economic change and innovation from hunting-fishing to farming. Malmer reaches the conclusion that these changes were not due to migration of people or improved climatic conditions, but were due to economic/ideological factors, with new ideas being spread most likely by personal contact. |
