(review) Dmytro Kiosak. Modelling the Rhythm of Neolithisation Between the Carpathians and the Dnieper River (= Antichistica 41). Venezia 2024: Edizioni Ca’ Foscari, 270 pages, 68 figures.

The publication of new studies in Neolithic archaeology, especially on such an exotic subject for English-language literature, is always noteworthy, as such contributions not only expand our understanding of ancient cultures but also invigorate academic discourse. This is especially true when these studies employ advanced modern analytical methods, ensuring the rigorous examination of materials, and when the author’s interpretations offer fresh perspectives that are both innovative and well-grounded in evidence. Such works significantly enhance the field by challenging existing paradigms and fostering new lines of inquiry. This is also a positive in the case when the author of the book has conducted his own research in this area for many years, making many interesting discoveries.
