Popis: |
The Late Neolithic site Bršadin – Pašnjak pod selom is located on the former bank of the Vuka River, one of the Danube’s tributaries in north-eastern Croatia (southern Carpathian Basin). At present, the site consists of several oval elevations, probably a result of past major landscape modifications. Archaeological excavations were carried out in two test trenches in which stratified remains of the Late Neolithic settlement were explored. The formation of a Late Neolithic settlement on the very edge of the river bank just after 5000 BC, and not earlier, raised questions about environmental conditions in that period. In 2016 two geological cores were drilled, the first (Br 1) through the cultural layers of the north-eastern part of the site, and the second (Br 2) through natural layers in a shallow marshy depression between two elevations. Freshwater molluscs and ostracods and geochemical composition of these cores were analysed and record a substantial change in the immediate environment of the Neolithic settlement after it was established. They also provide insight into the environmental conditions just before formation of the Neolithic settlement. |
