The articles included in this volume refer to two research projects, the general idea of which was to give the cultural and landscape history during Holocene period a solid foundation with help from new excavations and surveys. Through detailed studies, the authors thematize aspects like environmental reconstruction, economic activities and symbolic acts, while the excavation results offer a look into hitherto unknown phenomena of the Neolithic and Chalcolithic of the Southern Caucasus. They demonstrate that the expansion of the agrarian lifestyle in the Southern Caucasus occurred in forms other than those of the Neolithic Expansion of Anatolian and southeastern Europe.
