Abstract
This paper presents archaeological and palynological evidence for long cont inuation of the Mesolithic way of life in east-central Europe irrespective of the presence of early Neolithic farmers. The complete Neolithization of the area took place only about 3500 BC, as a consequence of long-term inter actions between indigenous foragers and exotic farmers.
