    Extractions: For references, click here. The earliest food-producing communities to appear on the North European Plain were those of the Linear Pottery culture, or Linearbandkeramik) , which had also colonized the loess belt across central Europe between 5400 and 5000 B.C. (recalibrated dating). There are three main clusters of Linear Pottery settlement on the North European Plain: the Kujavy region west of Poznan and south of Torun , the area along the lower Vistula north of Torun, and along the lower Oder river south and west of Szczecin. There are vast areas in which Linear Pottery settlements have not (yet?) been found, including the Pomeranian moraine belt, the Baltic coastal plain, and the glacial outwash areas west of the Elbe, but there is the potential for considerable change in this picture. For instance, prior to 1980, only a handful of Linear Pottery sites were known from the area along the lower Vistula north of Torun. Today, close to 200 have been discovered, thanks to the interest taken in them by a local university The ceramics, flint tools, and ground stone tools found on the Linear Pottery sites of the North European Plain are essentially similar to those found elsewhere in east-central Europe. Unlike the large Linear Pottery sites of the loess belt, substantial longhouses have hitherto not been found in the lowlands. Instead, most of the lowland Linear Pottery sites are relatively small collections of shallow pits. The pits often have dense concentrations of refuse, however, with relatively large sherds and many reconstructable vessels. All the same, they do not appear to represent the same level of commitment to particular settlement locations as do the longhouse settlements of the loess belt.

Computers have been used in archaeology for many years, and have now become an almost universal tool for archaeologists, even if for no more than word-processing. Other major uses include: database management systems , both for research and for official databases such as Sites and Monuments Records, now including graphic image data. quantitative analysis using statistical analysis or spreadsheet software Geographic Information Systems (GIS), linking data to maps surveying and graphic display of excavation, topographic and geophysical data on-site recording of excavations and post-excavation analysis graphic display, including building reconstructions and 'fly-past' simulations

    1. Setting a european core group of research and management institutions involvedin the integration of GIS in archaeology in general and in the handling of SMR  
    http://www.cica.es/~mapping/aimscontent.htm
    
    Extractions: Discussion and clarification of key issues of GIS handling of SMR key aspects involved in the introduction of a relatively new technology into a field attached to long-term traditions and habits. Some of these key aspects involved in the process of transference of SMR records into a new generation of computing systems are (i) funding problems and staff training (ii) consequences of the introduction of GIS for data modelling and structure (iii) analytical perspectives - concerning both new techniques embedded in GIS as well as limitations for archaeological spatial analysis (iv) implications of data structure standardisation for joint or harmonised European Archaeological Heritage policies: The ultimate contribution of this working meeting will be reflected within a series of joint documents stating a number of recommendations in the application of GIS into the sphere of SMR at a European level. This document will be of great importance not only in those regions or countries of the EU where handling of SMRs is still performed according to traditional methods but also where technological innovation is taking place more rapidly in order to secure investments. Therefore, one of the main expected impacts of this event will be to encourage technological updating, increasing efficiency in data management and therefore increasing the efficiency of Archaeological Heritage Protection.

    Extractions: The networking and internationalisation of the existing academic resources, historical and cultural achievements, as well as the research efforts of the academic community in the field of Archaeology using computer, information and communication technologies is a recent trend with a rapidly growing impact on archaeological research, management and education. The reason for this is twofold: on the one hand, the international character of the archaeological material itself, and, on the other, the ability of these technologies to overcome the difficulties of sharing these resources beyond the national borders. One additional reason (although this development is still in its infancy) is the ability of these technologies to simulate group collaboration. Academic WWW facilities are increasingly being used by professional archaeologists in the European Union for a variety of purposes. Over the past 3 years an informal but truly pan-European virtual research network in the field of archaeology has grown up, which maintains its own virtual space of shared resources, personal forums, international organisations, and electronic journals. It was established in 1994, emulating its North American counterpart ArchNet, co-ordinated at the University of Connecticut. The current state of European trends toward virtual research collaboration can be listed on the basis of the information technologies used:

    Extractions: D uring the nineteenth century the study of Archaeology took enormous developmental steps. Archaeologists were faced with new ideas which would guide them in making decisions on which modern Archaeology would be based. The European world felt a need for knowledge of antiquity, and the archaeologists were prepared to give them what they wanted. But instead of the average treasure hunter, the new Archaeologist would deliver reasonable, intellectual and believable information. Innovations in Geology such as the idea of a stratified earth with layers which "determine the age of fossil remains by the stratum they occupy below the earth" aided the archaeologists in advancing their field into one of science (Britannica #1,1998:1). The coming of Charles Darwin's idea of evolution with the Origin of Species sent archaeologists in motion to explore new ideas and modify the old. The notion that the world might be older than the church claimed it to be sparked a search for the answers to the loose ends of history. Many men took on the task to discover the past, but few did it as meticulously as General Augustus Henry Lane-Fox Pitt Rivers. This strong minded archaeologist has been dubbed the " father of British Archaeology", and to many he is the father of modern scientific Archaeology as well (Britannica #2,1998:1).
