Chalcolithic Age = Beginning of copper age.

Blam - Fascinating as always. So many Eastern European areas to explore after so many years being closed to outsiders. I knew a man from Romania(at the time, it was still under Communist control). He spoke of times as a child laborer, of digging up Roman coins and the soldiers that took them from he and the others. There must be thousands of stories like his and so many as yet undiscovered finds. Thanks for your post.

I think they should let Calcolithic priests get married.

Vth millenium B.C. So nice to see that some scientists still use B.C> instead of B.C.E. which began in the exact same year as B.C.!

This whole area, west of the Black Sea is very interesting, maybe the very origins of civilization.
