Ethnicity? Prestige? What else? Challenging views on the spread of Bell Beakers in Europe during the late 3rd millennium BC
Identité ? Prestige ? Quoi d’autre ? Renverser les idées reçues sur la diffusion du Campaniforme en Europe à la fin du 3e millénaire av. n. è.
Résumé
Behind the title, perhaps slightly provocative according to some, is the desire to hear new voices, to avoid redundancies, to welcome in Mediterranean France researchers who are not used to work there, and perhaps also the desire to step aside.
The collective work of this issue gives an account of the reflections framed around two axes, the technological approaches to Bell Beaker's material culture and the topic of the movement of ideas, stirred up by the Bell Beakers. However, in parallel with the "boom" in palaeogenetic studies, we bore in mind the archaeological issues within the questions raised by the Bell Beakers, and we tried to raise some new approaches, dealing more with anthropological perspectives.
