Equality and Inequality: Social Differentiation in North Central Europe from 4300-2400 cal BC

除了对中欧北部新石器时代社会早期遗迹的调查外，优先方案还将社会分化作为第二个主要方面。因此，在项目的最后阶段，社会解释将通过对社会理论问题，纪念碑的民族考古学方面和社会结构的深入调查，按时间顺序和时间顺序进行区分。据推测，社会实践的迹象是在经济战略，建筑和物质文化的不同模式中发现的，这些模式导致从最初的相当细分到一个更加垂直分化的社会。除了合作和集体原则以及通过“纪念碑”的中心作用来实施这些原则之外，在漏斗烧杯社会的最后阶段可能出现了增强的“个性化”，这指向了随后的单坟社会的新指导原则。这些假设的调查基于经济实践和人口统计以及建筑和物质文化的数据的时间顺序和时间顺序清单，将产生新的模型概念，为公元前4300-2400年期间在中欧北部。

In addition to investigations concerning the early monumentality of Neolithic societies in North Central Europe, the priority programme also concentrates on social differentiation as a second main aspect. Accordingly, in the final phase of the project social interpretations will be chronologically and chorologically differentiated through an intensive investigation on socio-theoretical issues, ethno-archaeological aspects of monumentality, and social structure. It is assumed that indications of social practices are to be found in different patterns recognized in economic strategies, architecture, and material culture which lead from an initial rather segmentary to a more vertically differentiated society. Beyond cooperative and collective principles and their implementation through the central role of “monuments”, the emergence of enhanced “individualization”, which points towards the new guiding principles of the subsequent Single Grave societies, may have occurred in the final stages of Funnel Beaker societies. The investigation of these hypotheses based on a chronological and chorological inventory of data on economic practices and demography as well as on architecture and material culture will yield new model concepts for the period between 4300–2400 BC in North Central Europe.
