CONT

[In the Balkans] the earliest distinctive, identifiable European culture - termed Starcevo-Koros - emerged ... During the 5th millennium, the now so-called Linear Pottery colonists, migrating from the southeast, built ordered villages of huge longhouses with massive timber framing, averaging about 100 by 25 feet (30 by 8 metres). The Linear Pottery culture spread through the river valleys of present north Hungary, Czechoslovakia, Poland, and Germany.

[...] faciès culturel du néolithique ancien et moyen (courant danubien), tirant son nom du décor et de la poterie par motifs linéaires en forme de ruban et de spirale, incisés avant cuisson.

CONT

La culture de Starcevo-Koros (fin du VIe millénaire - Ve millénaire) possède des affinités évidentes avec les cultures thessaliennes précédentes et semble être à l'origine des traditions danubiennes [...] On distingue généralement trois phases : Danubien I, II et III. Le Danubien I, ou «rubané» (en raison des compositions spiralées du décor céramique), comprend de grands bâtiments rectangulaires à charpente de bois groupés en villages d'agriculteurs (blé et orge) et d'éleveurs (mouton, chèvre, bœuf, porc et chien).
