Interconnection between the dynamics of natural conditions and populating of the Qarabag plain of Central Azerbaijan in the 4th millennium BC
Climatic changes that took place in the 4th millennium BC (the second half of the Atlantic period, 6-5 thousand years ago) as revealed with the palynological data from the settlements of the Qarabag (Karabakh) plain of Central Azerbaijan caused direct changes in the lifestyle and economic structure of the Leylatepe culture carriers. Three consecutive changes in humidity were recorded, each of which coincides with a certain type of settlements, differing in their topography, quality of the construction material used, area and density of settlement.
