Feldforschungen zum chronostratigraphischen Übergang vom Aurignacien zum Gravettien im Bistrita-Tal (Rumänien).
Zusammenfassung der Projektergebnisse
New data on three East Carpathian sites with a long Upper Palaeolithic sequence furnish proof of the Gravettian chronology compatible to Central and Eastern Central Europe. The 14C data series on charcoal from cultural layers is consistent in all three stratigraphic sequences and fits together with geological observations concerning loess accumulation rates and soil formations. The assumption of a “Late Aurignacian” contemporary to the Gravettian in the Bistriţa Valley as one of the key regions in South-Eastern Europe can be rejected. Mainly significant younger dates from A. Paunescu in the 1980’s (conventional datations) could be caused by mixed sample materials. Though the loess sequence of the Bistriţa Valley contains only the Upper Pleniglacial, a correlation with long sequences in the Prut and Dnistr Valley could complement the chronology puzzle close to the limit of the radiocarbon method.
