Mit dem internationalen Workshop \u201eQuarries and Mines in Social Context. Connecting Patterns of Change in Neolithic Cultural Landscapes\u201c wurde ein \u00dcberblick zu verschiedenen Fundorten, regionalen und zeitlichen Gemeinsamkeiten und Unterschiede sowie zu Entwicklungen im Bereich von Feuerstein-Minen gew\u00e4hrt und es wurden intensive Diskussionen gef\u00fchrt. Vom 08.\u201310.06.2022 hielten Berit Eriksen vom Teilprojekt F5 und B1 und Lynn Fisher von der Universit\u00e4t Illinois den Workshop im Hotel Birke ab. Die Idee f\u00fcr den Workshop entstand w\u00e4hrend des ersten Teils von Lynn Fishers Zeit als Mercator Fellow (Teilprojekt F5), und sie nun kehrte zur\u00fcck, um ihr Stipendium mit dem Workshop abzuschlie\u00dfen(LINK). Ziel des Workshops war es, neue Erkenntnisse aus verschiedenen Regionen zu sammeln und die internationalen Expert:innen dieses Forschungszweiges an einem Ort zu versammeln, um gemeinsam \u00fcber das Ph\u00e4nomen zu diskutieren. Schon vor Jahrtausenden haben Menschen Feuerstein bergm\u00e4nnisch abgebaut. Das Ph\u00e4nomen der Feuerstein-Minen wird in Europa besonders mit den neolithischen Kulturen assoziiert. Die fr\u00fchen neolithischen Kulturen (ab ca. 5500 v. u. Z.) begannen damit, tiefe Sch\u00e4chte auszuheben, um an den Werkstoff Feuerstein \u2013 den Stahl der Steinzeit \u2013 heranzukommen. Daraufhin, im sp\u00e4ten f\u00fcnften und vierten Jahrtausend, erlebte dieses Ph\u00e4nomen einen Boom. Tausende Minensch\u00e4chte wurden in zahlreichen Regionen Europas ausgehoben. Und das Ph\u00e4nomen hielt sich auch noch in den darauffolgenden Jahrtausenden. Trotz regionaler und zeitlicher Unterschiede in der Intensit\u00e4t, wurde Feuerstein noch bis in die Metallzeiten (ab ca. 2200 v. u. Z.) abgebaut und genutzt. Der Workshop war ein voller Erfolg, so lautet das Fazit der beiden Organisatorinnen. Die Mitarbeitenden des Hotels Birke umsorgten die Forschenden mit Kaffee und Kuchen, gutem Mittagsessen und am Freitag mit einem hervorragenden Abendessen. Dieses hat den dreit\u00e4gigen Workshop abgerundet, da die Wissenschaftler:innen hier in ausgelassener Atmosph\u00e4re den Workshop miteinander res\u00fcmieren konnten. Nun haben die Forschenden einige Monate Zeit, ihre spannenden Ergebnisse niederzuschreiben. Alle Beitr\u00e4ge werden gesammelt und in der STPAS Serie publiziert. Top international research on flint mines in Kiel Strange things were going on at Hotel Birke in Kiel. A high number of internationally-renowned researchers from many European countries came together for three days in June to discuss one of the most fascinating phenomena of European prehistory. The international workshop \u201cQuarries and Mines in Social Context. Connecting Patterns of Change in Neolithic Cultural Landscapes\u201d, provided an overview of different sites, regional and temporal similarities and differences, as well as developments in the field of flint mines, and the scholars discussed the results intensively. From the 8th to the 10th June 2022, Berit Eriksen from the subprojects F5 and B1, and Lynn Fisher from the University of Illinois, Springfield, held the workshop at the Hotel Birke. The idea for the workshop was conceptualised during the first part of Lynn Fisher\u2019s time as a Mercator Fellow (subproject F5), and saw her return to complete her fellowship with the workshop itself (LINK) . The aim of the workshop was to collect new information from different regions and to gather international experts in this field of research in one place to discuss the phenomenon together. People used to mine flint for thousands of years. In Europe, the phenomenon of flint mines is particularly associated with Neolithic cultures. The early Neolithic cultures (from about 5500 BCE onwards) began digging deep shafts into the ground to reach the flint \u2014 the steel of the Stone Age. Then, in the late fifth and fourth millennia, this phenomenon boomed. People dug thousands of mine shafts in many regions of Europe. And the phenomenon persisted across the millennia that followed. Despite regional and temporal differences in intensity, flint was still mined and used until the metal ages (from about 2200 BCE onwards). The workshop was a great success, as the two organisers concluded. The staff from Hotel Birke took care of the researchers with coffee and cake, a good lunch, and an excellent dinner on Friday. This was the perfect way to finish off the three-day workshop, as the researchers enjoyed the relaxed atmosphere and summed up the workshop with each other.

Z.) abgebaut und genutzt.<\/p>\n<p>Der Workshop war ein voller Erfolg, so lautet das Fazit der beiden Organisatorinnen. Die Mitarbeitenden des Hotels Birke umsorgten die Forschenden mit Kaffee und Kuchen, gutem Mittagsessen und am Freitag mit einem hervorragenden Abendessen. Dieses hat den dreit\u00e4gigen Workshop abgerundet, da die Wissenschaftler:innen hier in ausgelassener Atmosph\u00e4re den Workshop miteinander res\u00fcmieren konnten. Nun haben die Forschenden einige Monate Zeit, ihre spannenden Ergebnisse niederzuschreiben. Alle Beitr\u00e4ge werden gesammelt und in der <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sidestone.com\/series\/STPAS\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">STPAS Serie<\/a> publiziert.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Top international research on flint mines in Kiel<\/strong><\/p>\n[caption id=\"attachment_9695\" align=\"alignleft\" width=\"450\"]<a href=\"https:\/\/zbsa.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/vortrag_berit-eriksen.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/zbsa.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/vortrag_berit-eriksen.jpg\" alt=\"B.

A high number of internationally-renowned researchers from many European countries came together for three days in June to discuss one of the most fascinating phenomena of European prehistory. The international workshop \u201cQuarries and Mines in Social Context. Connecting Patterns of Change in Neolithic Cultural Landscapes\u201d, provided an overview of different sites, regional and temporal similarities and differences, as well as developments in the field of flint mines, and the scholars discussed the results intensively.<\/p>\n<p>From the 8th to the 10th June 2022, Berit Eriksen from the subprojects <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sfb1266.uni-kiel.de\/en\/projects\/cluster-f\/f5-social-dimensions-of-technological-change-1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">F5<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sfb1266.uni-kiel.de\/en\/projects\/cluster-b-complex-foragers\/b1-pioneers-of-the-north\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">B1<\/a>, and Lynn Fisher from the University of Illinois, Springfield, held the workshop at the Hotel Birke. The idea for the workshop was conceptualised during the first part of Lynn Fisher\u2019s time as a Mercator Fellow (subproject F5), and saw her return to complete her fellowship with the workshop itself (LINK) . The aim of the workshop was to collect new information from different regions and to gather international experts in this field of research in one place to discuss the phenomenon together.<\/p>\n<p>People used to mine flint for thousands of years. In Europe, the phenomenon of flint mines is particularly associated with Neolithic cultures. The early Neolithic cultures (from about 5500 BCE onwards) began digging deep shafts into the ground to reach the flint \u2014 the steel of the Stone Age. Then, in the late fifth and fourth millennia, this phenomenon boomed. People dug thousands of mine shafts in many regions of Europe. And the phenomenon persisted across the millennia that followed. Despite regional and temporal differences in intensity, flint was still mined and used until the metal ages (from about 2200 BCE onwards).<\/p>\n[caption id=\"attachment_9696\" align=\"alignleft\" width=\"450\"]<a href=\"https:\/\/zbsa.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/teilnehmer_vor-_hotel.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/zbsa.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/teilnehmer_vor-_hotel.jpg\" alt=\"The participants in front of the entrance to Hotel Birke.\" width=\"450\" height=\"300\" \/><\/a> Group photo of the participants in front of the entrance to Hotel Birke (Photo: Kristina H\u00fcntemeyer).[\/caption]\n<p>The workshop was a great success, as the two organisers concluded. The staff from Hotel Birke took care of the researchers with coffee and cake, a good lunch, and an excellent dinner on Friday. This was the perfect way to finish off the three-day workshop, as the researchers enjoyed the relaxed atmosphere and summed up the workshop with each other. Now the researchers have a few months to write up their exciting results.
