The Climate Impact on East European Neolithic Societies. – Vita Antiqua №12. Collection of scientific works. – Kyiv: Center for Paleoethnological Research

The collection of scientific works is devoted to modern research on the interaction of the natural environment and the prehistoric population of Eastern Europe. Particular attention is paid to the study of the impact of abrupt climate change in the early Holocene on the material culture and economy of the Neolithic and sub-Neolithic communities.
