Such a trip would have involved negotiating considerable uncertainties. It is a testimony to the knowledge and skill of Neolithic mariners that similar journeys were undertaken right across the Mediterranean throughout the Neolithic. SUBSTANCES IN MOTION: NEOLITHIC MEDITERRANEAN “TRADE” 27 In considering travel, therefore, we need to consider geographical knowledge and social interaction as well as the mechanical means of transport. This is less readily investigated for land travel. The distribution of material culture often gives an indication of communication networks, and this in fact justifies to some extent the definition of the Mediterranean as a cultural zone.
Even in sedentary villages, people would always have been traveling in the course of normal social life, and the circulation of small amounts of archaeologically visible things may have been a reflex of this rather than a “trade system” in itself. Thirdly, and to some extent in opposition, the small scale of trade and its social embeddedness itself added value to traded items: rather than being off-the-shelf commodities, each axe, core, or pot was a unique product of a specific human chain of social events, something with its own biography.
