Short description
Megaliths and Settlement Structures in Eastern Holstein during 3500-3700 BC: Trave Valley and Oldenburger Graben
The area of the Funnelbeaker culture in Ostholstein is characterized by coastal and inland settlements. Comparative investigations in the central Travetal and the western Oldenburger Graben will provide information about dimensions, functions and economic patterns of the Funnelbeaker settlements. The optimal wetland conditions allow for a reconstruction of subsistence behavior and social structures, especially through a connection to investigations of surrounding Megalithic tombs. These will be a subject of investigation in specific excavations through which their locations and grave goods should be correlated to the settlements.

Scientific Abstract
Megaliths and Settlement Structures in Eastern Holstein during 3500-3700 BC: Trave Valley and Oldenburger Graben
The
area of the Funnelbeaker culture in Ostholstein is characterized by
coastal and inland settlements. Comparative investigations in the
central Travetal and the western Oldenburger Graben will provide
information about dimensions, functions and economic patterns of the
Funnelbeaker settlements. The optimal wetland conditions allow for a
reconstruction of subsistence behavior and social structures, especially
through a connection to investigations of surrounding Megalithic
tombs. These will be a subject of investigation in specific excavations
through which their locations and grave goods should be correlated to
the settlements.
