Hunter-gatherer Archaeobotany: Central European Mesolithic
PTÁKOVÁ, Michaela
This thesis focuses on Central European Mesolithic from the perspective of environmental archaeology. Based on analysis of plant macrofossils, it examines potential plant component of Mesolithic diet. The work further contributes to the knowledge on vegetation history of the area of Český ráj (Czech Republic) and attempts to reveal past plant use and the impact of Mesolithic communities on past environments. This is followed by a discussion concerning transition from hunting and gathering way of life to productive economies using examples of specific landscape units and well defined spatiotemporal scales.
