Sažetak
This paper takes the example of the Adriatic offshore islands to explore the proposition that the archaeological record of small, remote islands reflects the intensity of long-distance interaction in prehistory. The Early Neolithic and the end of the Copper Age are the best-represented periods. They correspond to the times of large-scale stylistic unity: the former, of the Mediterranean Impressed Wares, and the latter, of Bell Beakers. During those periods, radical innovations were introduced over vast areas of Europe: first, a new subsistence economy, and second, a different kind of social organization. In both cases, long-distance interaction would have played a crucial role.
