The study of the Neolithic transition constitutes a major theme in
prehistoric research. The process of economic change, from foraging
to farming, involved one of the main transformations in human
behavior patterns. This volume focuses on investigating the
neolithization process at the periphery of one of the main routes
in the expansion of the Neolithic in Europe: the Western
Mediterranean region. Recent advances in radiocarbon dating,
mathematical and computational models, archaeometric analysis and
biomolecular techniques, together with new archaeological
discoveries, provide novel insights into this topic. This volume is
organized into five sections: * new discoveries and new ideas about
the Mediterranean Neolithic * reconstructing times and modeling
processes * landscape interaction: farming and herding * dietary
subsistence of early farming communities * human dispersal
mechanisms and cultural transmission This volume will also provide
new empirical data to help readers assess different theoretical
frameworks and narratives which underlie the models proposed to
explain the expansion of farming from the Middle East into Europe.
