Cultures of remembrance, cultures of forgetting
Open accessAbstract
This paper discusses the role of the past in later Danubian cultures, exemplified by references to traces of LBK settlements, which were visible for a long time. Two regions, Rhineland and Kuyavia, are compared by conducting analyses of spatial relationships of the LBK and post-LBK at macro- and microregional levels. The post-LBK development followed different trajectories there and equally diverse was the role of the past. Whereas in the Rhineland Middle Neolithic cultures obviously avoided it, in Kuyavia they referred to it and this tendency grew through time, leading to an unprecedented proliferation of memory practices during the Brześć Kujawski Culture.

It is certain that the LBK habitat was still visible, and such a location was a conscious demonstration of continuity reaching back to distant 'ancestors'.
“Nevertheless, it is certain that the LBK habitat was still visible, and such a location was a conscious demonstration of continuity reaching back to distant 'ancestors' (e.g.Pyzel, 2018).”

The presence of earlier traces could have influenced the choice of location, as it allowed for the creation of a narrative of continuity and gave the rondel the character of a monument honoring ancestral memory.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
