Bianca Preda-Bălănică, Bronze Age Kurgans in Southern Romania(The Yamnaya Impact on Prehistoric Europe 6)Budapest 2025ISBN 978-615-5766-72-5302 S./pp., zahlr. Farb- und S/W-Abb. / num. colour and b/w-figs., 28 x 20 cm; kartoniert/hardcover Utilising a systematic methodology, this volume offers an in-depth analysis of various aspects of mortuary practices, including kurgan stratigraphy, the orientation of the deceased, bioanthropological and genetic evidence, grave goods, and chronological assessments. The research identifies distinct phases of burial rituals, categorising them into pre-Yamnaya, Early and Late Yamnaya, Katakombnaya, Middle Bronze Age/Mnogovalikovaya, and Late Bronze Age/Sabatinovka-Noua-Coslogeni, spanning the time from the 4th to the 2nd millennia BC. The insights gleaned from this research reveal the intricate relationships between local customs and the influences of steppe populations over time. The study sheds light on the complexities of mobility, interaction, and cultural admixture, as well as the evolution of burial practices and material culture during the Bronze Age. Bronze Age Kurgans in Southern Romania is poised to become a vital resource for scholars interested in the dynamics of prehistoric societies, offering perspectives on how cultural identities were shaped and transformed across centuries.

Farb- und S/W-Abb. / num. colour and b/w-figs., kartoniert/hardcoverThis volume, the fourth of the ‘Yamnaya Impact on Prehistoric Europe’ Series, represents the proceedings of the session #196: "No man travels alone, he takes himself along: Yamnaya transmission and/or transformation during the 3rd millennium BC Europe" held at the Budapest EAA Virtual Meeting in 2020. The session was co-organised by the editors of this volume together with colleagues Todor Valchev from the Yambol Regional Historical Museum (Bulgaria) and Piotr Włodarczak from the Institute of Archaeology and Ethnology of the Cracow branch of the Polish Academy of Sciences (Poland). The session aimed to focus on archaeological approaches to material culture and ritual practices to explore how steppe transmissions unfolded during the 3rd millennium BC.The volume presents the work of 25 researchers from various European countries, Japan, and the United States, united in 11 articles. The themes discussed cover a large portion of the European continent, from the Lower Don steppes in the east to Northern Central Europe in the west, and a time span of approximately two millennia. The research presented opens new perspectives on micro-regional traits, regional particularities, and supra-regional complexities of steppe transmissions in the 4th and 3rd millennia BC. 324 S./pp., zahlr.
