Anotations

Scope note:

Refers to the Neolithic style and culture named after the lake settlement at Lagozza di Besnate in Lombardy, Italy. It is characterized by distinctive pottery and flint tools. Pots typically include simple open bowls with decorated cylindrical lids and closed-mouthed bowls with sinuous profiles and hollow stalk impressions. Flint tools typically include triangular transverse arrows made of very fine flint, which was imported into the area. The culture seems to be closely related to the Chasseen culture, and may represent an invasion from the west.
