The aim of the archaeological sub-project is to receive answers about the extent to which the ancient human societies have reacted on coastal decline caused by climate changes, geological factors and to other changes of their natural environment by changes of their economic system, their social structures or their communication nets. The areas of research are the Wismar Bight as part of the Mecklenburgian Bight in the west and the coastal waters of the Isle of Rügen in the east. The period between 6000 and 2000 BC is of particular interest, since the rapid rise of the sea level during that period, that has caused great environmental changes, obviously must have affected the behaviour of human cultures. Several well preserved coastal settlement sites have recently been discovered in both areas of research, that need investigation and evaluation to produce the necessary proxy-data for other sub-projects of the research unit. Moreover, the localization and survey on late mesolithic and early neolithic sites in the bordering areas is necessary to clarify if it is possible to generalize the expected results. A detailed examination of those sites is planned for the phase 2 of the project. In addition individual coast-related settlement sites are known from the bronce and iron age as well as sites from the early and high Middle Ages, which cover the time span from 2000 BC to 2000 AD. Two important sites situated in the areas of our focus of attention, the Wismar Bight and Island of Rügen, have to be mentioned: the early-medieval coastal trade centres Gross Strömkendorf and Ralswiek. Both have produced comprehensive information about the changes of the sea level and the reactions of the affected inhabitants by intensive exploration. They shall be added to the investigation.

考古分项目的目的是了解古代人类社会对气候变化、地质因素造成的海岸退化以及通过改变其经济制度、社会结构或通信网络对其自然环境的其他变化作出反应的程度。研究区域包括西部梅克伦堡湾的维斯马尔湾和东部吕根岛的沿海沃茨。公元前6000年至公元前2000年这段时期特别令人感兴趣，因为这段时期海平面的迅速上升造成了巨大的环境变化，显然一定影响了人类文化的行为。最近在这两个研究领域发现了几个保存完好的沿海定居点，需要进行调查和评估，以便为研究单位的其他分项目提供必要的代理数据。此外，还需要对周边地区的中石器时代晚期和新石器时代早期遗址进行定位和调查，以明确是否有可能推广预期的结果。计划在项目第二阶段对这些场址进行详细检查。此外，与海岸有关的定居点是从青铜时代和铁器时代以及中世纪早期和中期的遗址中发现的，这些遗址的时间跨度从公元前2000年到公元2000年。必须提到位于我们关注的重点地区的两个重要地点，即维斯马尔湾和吕根岛：中世纪早期的沿海贸易中心格罗斯特伦肯多夫和罗尔斯维克。这两个项目都通过深入的勘探，提供了关于海平面变化和受影响居民反应的全面信息。他们将被添加到调查。
