Description
Summary:Pottery appearance investigation in the Dnepr-Dvina basin in the 7th-6th mill BC, its development and cultural traditions formation was the main subject of this paper. Several ceramic traditions existed here during early neolithic were distinguished. Their different origin, analogies with other various ceramic assemblages of Eastern Europe and the scheme of relative and absolute chronology were established. The analysis of 14C dates, spatial analysis, and analysis of distribution of vessels attributed to different ceramic phases on archaeological sites became the basis for relative and absolute chronology elaborated for this region. Also different other aspects were regarded, such as vessels’ function, technological, morphological and decor traditions, which reflected paflicularities of local cultures and processes of interaction between different communities. An important part of the thesis was devoted to the study of the place of early neolithic ceramic traditions of Dnepr-Dvina region in the context of ceramic assemblages of Eastern Europe. Thus severals models of neolithisation were proposed for this territory, also specifity of it was described. We might suppose transfer of only some components of ceramic traditions, and not the whole complex on new territories. Ceramic traditions of some of their particular constituents existed in different areas located far away from each other could indicate some commun cultural milieu, that united societies attributed now to different archaeological cultures. L‘étude de l'apparition de la poterie dans Dnepr-Dvina bassin au 7-6 millénaires av. J.C., son développement ultérieur, et la formation des traditions sont au cœur de ce travail. L‘étude faite a permis de mettre en relief quelques traditions céramiques existant ici dans néolithique ancien, établir leur diverse genèse, proposer le schéma de leur chronologie absolue et relative, établir l‘analogie parmi la céramique des autres régions de l‘Europe de l‘Est. La datation 14C, l‘analyse spatiale, ainsi que l‘analyse de la ...
