The ITN Forging Identities1 will explore intercultural interaction in Bronze Age Europe – a golden epoch between 3000 and 500 BC with new patterns of social identification, specialised production, complex polities and wide-reaching networks across Europe.

 

Százhalombatta Field School 2009 (Sep 9th 2009)

 

 

 

  • How did the movement of people, animals, plants, things, ideas, and knowledge take place and on what scale?

  • How did cultural mobility impact on the social life of settlements?

  • How were European and regional identities forged through interaction?

 

These and other questions will be researched by building on European networking and by using a cross-disciplinary methodology combining archaeology, natural science and sociology. This shared platform shall create knowledge of the mobility of people and culture – including the new metal bronze – and insight into the forging of European and regional identities that shaped this remarkable period.
