Domestic architecture is a means of examining the social structure of Neolithic groups in Europe from 5500 BC to 4500 BC Indeed. a house is built as much to order the social milieu as to dominate the physical environment. The Danubian house was first laid out according to strict cultural norms. This "uniformity" reflects a relatively "egalitarian" society, and a common conceptual System. However, numerous variations occurred. Apparently influenced by the type of relations between a site and its neighbours, this variability enabled individuals to react and ad on the System, but also contributed to the break-up of the Bandkeramik culture, and its replacement by new regional entities.

As it appears in diverse guises - and notably as a founding narrative - the past is at the core of every functioning human society. The idea that the past can be known through scientific research has long been a fundamental challenge for western societies and for European researchers, from all disciplines concerned. Through more than four decades of outward-looking archaeological practice, the scholar, teacher and intellectual Jean-Paul Demoule has elaborated a truly global approach to European cultures and their transformations, spanning from the social inequality in Neolithic times to Indo European research to contemporary links between heritage and politics. His colleagues - British, Bulgarians, Czechs, Danes, Dutch, French, Germans, North-Americans, Spaniards, Swiss and Russians - seek to extend and enrich his vision. With contributions (written in French and in English) spanning from prehistory to the modern world, they bring in this volume new insights and data to such issues as the processes of identity construction at different scales, migratory movements in Europe, the status of gender, the role of prestige objects and megalithic monuments in the emergence of social hierarchy and in the semiology of power… without forgetting the myths and realities surrounding the Indo-European phenomenon.

Organisé pour la première fois en Lorraine, ce XIIIe colloque interrégional sur le Néolithique a tout naturellement privilégié les origines de la Néolithisation dans l’est de la France : on trouvera ainsi pour cette période d’importantes synthèses sur cette région ainsi que des contributions sur l’Allemagne et la Belgique. En outre, la question, toujours controversée, des influences rubanées et cardiales sur la genèse du Néolithique français est ici largement abordée. Enfin, quelques articles concernent également les étapes ultérieures du Néolithique, notamment le Michelsberg. Organised for the first time in Lorraine, this 13th interregional meeting on the Neolithic quite naturally privileged the origins of this period in eastern France: important synthesis concerning the region as well as contributions related to adjoining Germany and Belgium are to be found. Amongst others the question, still controversial, concerning the Rubané and Cardial influences on the French Neolithic is largely discussed here. Finally several articles concerning later stages of the Neolithic, notably the Michelsberg, are presented here.

La révolution néolithique est sans doute l'un des événements majeurs de l'histoire humaine. Indépendamment, dans plusieurs régions du monde, des espèces animales et végétales sont domestiquées, permettant une maîtrise des ressources alimentaires. Il en résulte une explosion démographique sans précédent qui conduit en quelques millénaires à des sociétés inégalitaires et violentes où apparaissent des villes et des États. Cet ouvrage, associant les points de vue d'archéologues, d'anthropologues, de linguistes, de généticiens, d'agronomes, s'interroge sur les causes de cette révolution et en décrit les diverses formes dans les principales régions du monde - Proche-Orient, Afrique, Chine, Amériques, Océanie, Japon - grâce aux acquis les plus récents de la recherche. En résulte une analyse des conséquences sociales, économiques, culturelles, mais aussi écologiques et démographiques de l'invention de l'agriculture et de l'élevage qui est, peut-être, la première grande rupture des équilibres entre l'homme et la nature.
