The chronology of human cultures in Europe and the Mediterranean Basin according to 14C dating
Keywords:
Post-glacial time, Human cultures, cultivation, Radiocarbon chronologyAbstract
14C ages, from 20 ka to 2 ka BP inclusive, related to human cultures, cultivated plants and native flora in Europe and in the Mediterranean area allowed us to build a time succession for the evolution of the human cultures compared with cultivations and the diffusion of native flora in post-glacial times. The results show the invalidity of transition cultures, such as the Mesolithic and Chalcolithic, as chronological indicators even in the same area and they strengthen the diachrony of the same events at different latitudes.
