Abstract

While numerous studies have attempted to reconcile the relative sequence of Late Tripolye sites with 14C data, results have generally conformed to the general, monolithic periodization of the Cucuteni-Tripolye cultural complex. When viewed as a multi-linear process occurring on the level of numerous interrelated regions, the development of local groups assigned to the periods CI, CI-II and CII can be shown to have a high degree of spatiotemporal variability and overlap. In this article we explore the synchronicity of interactions between groups assigned to different typo-chronological periods and propose a revised hybrid chronology for Late Tripolye development that considers both relative and absolute chronological indicators

Keywords:
