Zusammenfassung: | During the first and second centuries of the fifth millennium BC, the LBK (Linearbandkeramik)
pottery style disappeared in the Rhineland (Germany); it was replaced by the Großgartach style, which
was in turn followed by the Rössen style. While in some regions, the former settlement sites of the LBK

were instead established in new locations. The following text considers some possible reasons for this
development. |
