These Late Neolithic settlement sites define the westernmost edge of the Corded Ware Culture (c. 2900-2300 cal BC). The people took part in a broad spectrum of activities: hunting, gathering, fishing, agriculture, animal husbandry, and artisan crafts. They maintained their regional traditions while dwelling on the edge of this Neolithic cultural group. The study depicts Neolithic households as highly mobile with sedentary and seasonal settlements. The patterns that emerge from the in-depth spatial analysis of material distributions indicate the presence of spatially bound locations for specific activities. This structuring of space further supports the identification of various dwelling structures. Neolithic monumentality is, for the first time, identified within the Dutch coastal wetlands. The biographical perspective underlines the ephemeral nature of the divide between the place of the living and the place of the ancestors.Groningen archaeological studies ;Volume 32.Corded Ware cultureNetherlandsNeolithic periodNetherlandsNetherlandsAntiquitiesCorded Ware cultureNeolithic period569.9Nobles Gary1465818MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910797081603321Dwelling on the edge of the Neolithic3676034UNINA
