description | In the history of the central Balkans prior to the Roman conquest migrations
of people had manifold importance. The recognition of these migrations has
been the basis for distinguishing between different periods of prehistory.
Various analyses of the material culture offer information on the social
contact between the invaders and the autochtonous populations. They reveal
details of the transfer of elements of culture and technological knowledge
from one region to another. Of particular significance in this respect are
migrations over vast territories, sometimes from as far as the Ural mountains
in the east, the Alps in the west and the Pindus in Greece to the south.
Investigations into the models of the migrations open up possibilities for
determining the variation in, and different forms of, human movement from one
geographic area to another. |
