Summary note

Domestic architecture is a means of examining the social structure of Neolithic groups in Europe from 5500 BC to 4500 BC Indeed. a house is built as much to order the social milieu as to dominate the physical environment. The Danubian house was first laid out according to strict cultural norms. This "uniformity" reflects a relatively "egalitarian" society, and a common conceptual System. However, numerous variations occurred. Apparently influenced by the type of relations between a site and its neighbours, this variability enabled individuals to react and ad on the System, but also contributed to the break-up of the Bandkeramik culture, and its replacement by new regional entities.
