Die Ausbreitung der Landwirtschaft in Europa bis etwa 3800 v. Chr

Fascinating! Be interesting to track farming technology using a similar map, that which isn’t unique to certain regions that is.

It would be interesting to overlay this on soil types.

It’s for instance unsurprising to see where it spread quickly in the Balkans or along the löss soil belt from Ukraine to the west of France, or spread slowly into wet lowlands or mountain ranges. But there are still open questions. Are the Western Mediterranean coasts for instance objectively good for agriculture from the perspective of a prehistoric farmer? Or is that more about ships?
