Abstract

This article deals with eastern central Sweden and the late Neolithic transition from a coastal based hunter-gatherer society, to a society based more or less on agriculture. The article proposes a hypothesis based on an earlier study, suggesting that the period for the shift to agriculture is visible; for example, in the change in waste management systems on dwelling sites, during the period 2500-2300 BC. Furthermore, it is suggested that the late Neolithic transition and the time span for the late Neolithic period itself, at least in the studied area, perhaps starts somewhat earlier than it is considered today.
