Context

Historical context

Background information associated with the reference record.

Region & Environment

The Körös phase in Hungary falls within the larger Carpathian Basin environment, where rivers, wetlands, and fertile lowlands offered opportunities for farming and livestock herding. Seasonal water availability and rich soils helped sustain plant cultivation and supported pasture areas for animals.

Historical Context

During 6000–5500 BCE, farming populations were becoming established and expanding in parts of Europe, including the Carpathian Basin. In Hungary, this period reflects the growth of Neolithic lifeways that were part of wider Early Neolithic connections across southeastern and central Europe.

Populations & Lifeways

Populations consisted of agricultural communities practicing cultivation and herding, supported by stable household economies. Settlements were likely planned around reliable access to arable land, water, and building resources, with daily labor involving crop processing, food preparation, and tool making.

Social life would have centered on kin-based communities where household production mattered for pottery, everyday tools, and maintenance of domestic spaces.

Analysis

Genetic comparisons

These comparisons show genetic similarity, not identity or origin. The populations listed are those whose genomes show statistical alignment to this ancient individual.

Similarity reflects shared history, not shared identity. These are analytical comparisons, not claims about who this person was.

Modern Genetic Admixture

This analysis compares the DNA profile with present-day reference populations, showing statistical similarity to modern reference populations from different regions. The excavation site records where this individual was found, not a fixed modern genetic identity.
