Landscape Archaeology and the Use of Territory at Danube’s shore in Verbicioara Culture

This research is centred around understanding a less known culture, Verbicioara, by looking at its landscape. Using the site level archaeological data available from the excavations to date, this study builds an aggregated data model that might explain how people have used the land and how they have adapted to their environment. Statistics, landscape analyses based on topographic maps and flood simulations have been used to get an image of how Verbicioara communities have chosen their environment and what can mean the scarcity of the artefacts that we find today in the danubian territory of the culture.
