Introduction
The oldest Middle European monuments (approx. 4850/4750 – 4550/4500 BC) were presented in the Lower Austrian County Exhibition at Heldenberg in 2005 (Daim & Neubauer, 2005). The Middle Neolithic circular ditch systems, or Kreisgrabenanlagen (KGA), are known all over Middle Europe. These wooden monuments form a first pan-European phenomenon, crossing the cultural borders defined by the archaeological material record. One third of the approx. 135 monuments known so far are found in the eastern federal states of Austria. All known Austrian KGAs have been magnetically prospected by the Team Archeo Prospections® in 2003 and 2004, in preparation for the exhibition mentioned above. The acquired magnetic data were combined with aerial photographs, digital terrain models, cadastral maps etc. by means of a GIS for the subsequent combined archaeological interpretation and archiving. This digital archive, a comprehensive and comparable database existing so far only for the KGA’s of ...
