The 1965-1968 excavations at Schela Cladovei (Romania) revisited [2013] by Clive Bonsall and Adina Boroneanț

Schela Cladovei is one of the most important Mesolithic–Neolithic sites in Southeast Europe. It belongs to a group of Stone Age settlements that were discovered ahead of dam construction in the Iron Gates section of the Danube valley in the second half of the twentieth century. It is arguably the only one of these settlements to escape flooding when the river was impounded, although the rise in the river level has led to extensive erosion of the site.

However, like most of the sites investigated, published accounts of the excavations at Schela Cladovei are sparse and lacking in detail. In this paper we review the results of the first three seasons of excavation at Schela Cladovei, conducted by Vasile Boroneanț between 1965 and 1968. Our account places emphasis on the burial remains and is based largely on the original field notes, plans and photographs of the excavations. In some respects, our interpretations differ from those that have been published previously.
