Around 2200-1700 BCE, Scandinavia and Central Europe were shaped by significant socio-environmental transformations. Between central Germany and northern Norway, Nordic flint daggers symbolise these changes--across different societies and under varying environmental conditions.

For the first time, this book brings together and interprets both Central European and Scandinavian contributions on this subject. It becomes evident that a wave of innovation transformed the world: flint daggers and flint sickles, new agricultural techniques, and changes in domestic architecture all reflect a new habitus. This new way of life emerged during a period of climate change and had an impact across hundreds of kilometres, affecting an entire subcontinent.
