An international team of archaeologists and scientists has reconstructed the diets of prehistoric communities from north-central Poland, shedding new light on how people adapted to changing environments and shifting social landscapes over three millennia between the Neolithic and the Bronze Age. Published in Royal Society Open Science, the study analyzed human remains from 60 individuals, dated between around 4100 and 1230 BC. This long timespan encompassed key periods of Central European prehistory, including the arrival of groups with steppe ancestry from the east and the first widespread use of millet in the region.
