Abstract
In the last decade new archaeological and geomorphological research in the lower Danube catchment (LDC) has transformed our understanding of prehistoric river-society interactions, particularly with respect to the environmental context in which farming first developed in Southeast Europe at around 6100 cal. BC. This paper critically reviews these recent developments and using a new Late Pleistocene and Holocene fluvial chronology from the Teleorman Valley (TV), southern Romania, examines the interplay between river dynamics and the Neolithic archaeological record.
