Scholtus, Lizzie;Müller, Johannes (2023-12-08) 2024-01-08 data set xxx rdacontent Computermedien c rdamedia Online-Ressource cr rdacarrier The data is composed of two tables saved in a csv format with a “;” separator and UTF-8 encoding. • locations: contains sites names and their x-y coordinates in a WGS83 projection. These coordinates mostly refers to the Geonames of the main or nearest city and not to the exact location of the settlement. • Sites_HouseNB: contains the sites number of houses for each dated phase. – Site = site name. – BCE = absolute date of the concern phase. – Duration = length of existence of the site for the concern phase (in years). – House_nb = number of contemporaneous houses identify for the phase. For all sites, a first and last phase with 0 houses have been added to homogenise the evolution curves. – chrono = relative chronology attributed to the site (Neolithic, Chalcolithic, Bronze Age or Iron Age).

The aim of this paper was to highlight possible patterns in the demographic evolution of prehistoric and protohistoric settlements in Europe. The results of the study allowed us to identify one main pattern for all sites with a quick growth in the population after the site creation for 200 to 300 years, followed by slow decreasing until the site abandonment. demography prehistory patterns Europa gnd database Müller, Johannes Author aut https://opendata.uni-kiel.de/receive/fdr_mods_00000035 object in context https://opendata.uni-kiel.de/servlets/MCRZipServlet/fdr_derivate_00000032 raw object https://opendata.uni-kiel.de/rsc/thumbnail/fdr_mods_00000035.png preview https://opendata.uni-kiel.de/receive/fdr_mods_00000035 uri
