Going West? uses the latest data to question how the Neolithic way of life was diffused from the Near East to Europe via Anatolia. The transformations of the 7th millennium BC in western Anatolia undoubtedly had a significant impact on the neighboring regions of southeast Europe. Yet the nature, pace and trajectory of this impact needs still to be clarified. Archaeologists searched previously for similarities in prehistoric, especially Early Neolithic, material cultures on both sides of the Sea of Marmara. Recent research shows that although the isthmi of the Dardanelles and the Bosporus connect Asia Minor and the eastern Balkans, they apparently did not serve as passageways for the dissemination of Neolithic innovations. Instead, the first permanent settlements are situated near the Aegean coast of Thrace and Macedonia, often occurring close to the mouths of big rivers in secluded bays. The courses and the valleys of rivers such as the Maritsa, Strymon and Axios, were perfect corridors for contact and exchange.Using previous studies as a basis for fresh research, this volume presents exciting new viewpoints by analyzing recently discovered materials and utilising interdisciplinary investigations with the application of modern research methods.

The seventeen authors of this book have dedicated their research to a renewed evaluation of an old problem: namely, the question of how the complex transformations at the transition from the Mesolithic to the Neolithic can be explained. They have focused their studies on the vast area of the eastern Balkans and the Pontic region between the Bosporus and the rivers Strymon, Danube and Dniestr. Going West? thus offers an overview of the current state of research concerning the Neolithisation of these areas, considering varied viewpoints and also providing useful starting points for future investigations.

The present volume has its roots in a session proposed on the initiative of Zo Tsirtsoni for the annual meeting of the European Association of Archaeologists (EAA) in September 2014 in Istanbul, under the title:

Going West? The spread of farming between the Bosporus and the Lower Danube Region. EAA Conference, Istanbul, 11 September 2014.

The concept behind the original event was to bring together scholars working on the Late Prehistory in these areas (Mesolithic and Early Neolithic, following the European terminology), and to discuss their opinions about the start of the Neolithic way of life, based on recent data. The underlying idea was to check whether the dominant scenario of a diffusion of the Neolithic way of life from the Near East to Europe via northwest Anatolia in the course of the mid- to late 7th millennium BC had gained additional support in the last years, through new discoveries or new correlations in the material culture, or whether, on the contrary, recent evidence had weakened or modified this scenario in any way.
