The Buekk Mountain region of southeast central Europe has been the
main area for studying transitional' cultures between the Middle
and Upper Palaeolithic like that identified at the Szelta Cave in
Hungary. The author explores aspects of the evidence presented for
a link between Neanderthals and modern humans in this region in
detail, discussing data sets like lithic raw material transfers,
lithic edge wear analysis and settlement patterns, which are often
ignored. Contents: The Szeletian and the Middle to Upper
Palaeolithic transition in the Buekk mountain region - history of
research; Theoretical considerations and methodology;
Paleoenvironment and chronology; Middle and Upper Palaeolithic
sites in the Buekk mountains of northeast Hungary and east
Slovakia; Lithic raw materials utilization in the Buekk mountains
and the Carpathina basin during the Middle to Upper Palaeolithic
transition; A comparison of site functions at Middle and early
Upper Palaeolithic sites in the Buekk mountains; Early Upper
Palaeolithic settlement patterns in northeast Hungary and east
Slovakia.
