The Kura-Araxes culture fl ourished in the South Caucasus and neighbouring regions during the 4th– 3rd millennia BC. More than in previous periods, this period saw a greater concentration of populations in the vast volcanic highlands of this region. Palaeoecological records suggest that deciduous forests reached their maximum extent at the time, triggered by changes in temperature and precipitation. In this contribution, the environmental conditions that accompanied the Kura-Araxes culture are reconstructed from palaeoecological data from the region, placing settlement patterns in context and providing insights into human– environment interactions during this period of social and environmental change.La culture Kura-Araxe s’est épanouie dan...
