Burned_House_Horizon_Map.PNG


Summary

Description
English: This map shows the geographical extent of the cultural phenomenon, lasting from roughly 6000 B.C. to 2500 B.C., of some Neolithic European societies that practiced a ritualistic routine burning of their entire settlements, which is known as the Burned House phenomenon.

This is my own work. I used a section of the map located at File: Europe 34 62 -12 54 blank map.png as the foundation, and obtained the data for the shaded area of the map from a map appearing on page 101 of the 2005 article Weaving house life and death into places by Dr. Ruth Tringham, professor of Archaeology at the University of California, Berkeley.

I used Microsoft Paint to create this map.
