Förderkennzeichen: DFG SFB 806
Laufzeit: 01.01.2009 - 31.12.2009
Forschungszweck: Grundlagenforschung

With the introduction of a productive economy, mobility and even migrations did not become less important as compared to hunter-gatherer societies. In the matrix of possible migration influencing factors, cultural as well as environmental variables have to be considered. The project comprises two fields of research, one of which focuses on the diachronic comparison and description of the principal factors driving population dynamics. The other one focuses on soil fertility which became a new condition of paramount importance. The project D2 aims to identify how soils were selected or abandoned, when fertilisation became necessary in the Rhine region, and which additional climatic and cultural factors influenced the choice of settlement areas. New molecular geochemical analyses jointly with existing archaeological, archaeobotanical, dendrochronological and geoscientifical databases thereby promise a better understanding of past human-environmental-systems in the Rhineland.
