dc.description.abstract | The Marine Isotope Stage 3 (MIS 3) is characterized by signifcant climatic changes associated
with abrupt atmospheric shifts over Greenland (Dansgaard-Oeschger events) and episodes of
massive iceberg discharge into the North Atlantic (Heinrich events), enhancing cold and dry
conditions at mid-to-low latitudes. The extreme conditions and fuctuating climatic and
environmental conditions of Marine Isotope Stage 3 signifcantly afected many aspects of the
lives of prehistoric populations, including settlement and mobility patterns. Many ethnographic
studies show that settlement and mobility patterns are conditioned by numerous factors such as
climate conditions, terrain morphology, group preferences, animal behavior, resource
availability, etc. Although the Balkan peninsula has been characterized as a refugial region,
hominine populations could still be afected by the unstable conditions of Marine Isotope
Stage 3. With extensive research conducted during the last few decades in the Balkan peninsula,
available data shows mostly diverse practiced settlement models during MIS 3.
This study aims to examine settlement and mobility patterns of the hominine groups during
Marine Isotope Stage 3 on the Balkan peninsula with a specifc accent on the factors that could
have infuenced them. The study is based on published data from the Middle and Upper
Paleolithic sites in the Balkan peninsula, dated to Marine Isotope Stage 3. We consider several
parameters to assess the settlement and mobility patterns of the hunter-gatherer groups. Two
analyses have been conducted: bivariate WABI (Whole assemblage behavior index) and
multivariate PCA (Principal component analysis) for the following variables: lithic density,
retouched frequency, core, blanks, and chips frequency as well as tool diversity, which are
frequently used to assess settlement patterns of prehistoric human populations. Including both
Middle and Upper Paleolithic sites, diferences in the settlement patterns are inspected between
diferent hominine populations (Neanderthals and Anatomically Modern Humans), climate
conditions, and between microregions in which sites are located in. | sr |
