Scope note
Late Neolithic culture for which evidence is found in the historical Dobruja region, part of modern Romania and Bulgaria. It is named after the site at Baia-Hamangia, which was discovered in 1952. The status of this culture is unclear; it may represent an expansion of agricultural populations or a fusion with indigenous communities. Separate from evidence of settlements, cemeteries have been found.
