    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.

    • 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.
