In luna octombrie a.c. a fost demarat proiectul de cercetare (B1) numit The „Eastern Trajectory“: Last Glacial Palaeogeography and Archaeology of the Eastern Mediterranean and of the Balkan Peninsula din cadrul CRC 806 - Our Way To Europe | Culture-Environment Interaction and Human Mobility in the Late Quaternary.

Cercetarile sunt organizate sub egida The Centre of Quaternary Science and Geoarchaeology (QSGA) ce coordoneaza si include proiecte de cercetare, grupuri si laboratoare de cercetari ale Geoscientific and Archaeological Institutes ale Universitatii din Koln, Bonn si Aachen.


CRC 806 - Our Way to Europe



CRC are ca obiectiv principal interactiunea cultura-mediu dinspre Africa spre Europa, sectoarele de cercetare ale CRC urmarind principalele regiuni geografice:

(A) Africa as the "source” area of emergence of Modern Man,
(B) the eastern corridor of dispersal into Europe (Near East, Anatolia and Balkan),
(C) the possible western corridor of dispersal into Europe (Northwest Africa and Iberian Peninsula),
(D) Central Europe as a “sink” area of transcontinental population movements.
