58 I. VÖRÖS In the Carpathian Basin the remains of "A. hydruntinus" are known from four Early Holocene peat-bogs. The exact dating of the Asinus find in the Late Mesolithic settlement at Sered I. in Slovakia is still unknown.

6 We have not any knowledge of "A. hydruntinus " from the I

—II. phases of Lepenski Vir in the Iron Gate area of the Danuba valley.

7 From the territory of the Early Neolithic Körös-Starcevo culture the "A. hydruntinus "was found only at Szajol, Hódmezővásárhely, Gyálarét, Röszke, Ludas and Nosa from the Great Hungarian Plain (the last two settlements are in the Bácska in Yugoslavia),

8 and from the III. phase of Lepenski Vir at the Iron Gate area.

9 "A. hydruntinus" remains are unknown from Muntenia, Dobrogea and Moldavia. From the Middle Neolithic the "A. hydruntinus ' ' was found only in Hungary in a settlement belonging to the early Transdanubian Linear Pottery culture at Ába-Felsőszentiván-Ángyihegy.

0 From the Neolithic in the Carpathian Basin four sites yielded the remains of "A. hydruntinus"; they are Jeleni Louka (Southern Moravia, Linear Pottery culture),

1 Szegvár, Lebő (Great Hungarian Plain, Tisza culture) and Csóka (Сока, Northern-Bácska, Yugoslavia, Tisza culture). It is known also from three sites from Dobrogea: Cernavoda, Tekirghiol

3 from the settlements of the Hamangia culture. It is interesting that the ecological demends of the "A. hydruntinus" chronopopulation II. which immigrated into the Carpathian Basin with the Late Neolithic-Early Copper Age faunal wave

6

4 differ from those of the MesolithicEarly Neolithic chronopopulation I. Namely while the later one got into the Carpathian Basin during the period of a warm and extremely humid climate the previous one immigrated during a warm and extremely arid period. This species was not an euryecious one. The Mesolithic-Early Neolithic "A. hydruntinus" chronopopulation I. was "hygrotherm" (sténo-, politherm; sténo-, polihygr); while the Late Neolithic chronopopulation II. was "xerotherm" (sténo-, mesotherm; sténo-, oligohygr). At present we still do not know whether the two chronopopulations originated from two different areas or not. 5
