Summary
Abstract
This chapter discusses the generation of innovation in early Late Neolithic ceramic technology. It is suggested that competition between individuals and groups expressed in the context of conspicuous consumption had a dynamic role in the formation of the new Late Neolithic (LN) pottery tradition. Mobility of people and various materials must have facilitated the dissemination of novelties.
