area of the Basin. The conspicuously scarce, atypical Hungarian Mesolithic find assemblages are unsuitable to base our sound knowledge of the cultural continuity or discontinuity in the period and of the main trends of the Mesolithic development on them.

13 Neither the study of Early-Middle Neolithic chipped stone tools yielded positive results from the viewpoint of solving Mesolithic problems.

14 Only recently the study of the finds of some Early Linear Pottery sites and the analysis of the raw material utilization for lithic assemblages at these sites yielded some progress.

15 Map 1. The reconstruction of paleohydrographic and relief conditions in the central areas of the Carpathian Basin (after Somogyi 1970) The Mesolithic of the central area of the Care pathian Basin — especially the second half of e the period — can be characterized only by indid rect and uncertain data. That is why the main i- stress within the research is becoming to shift to e a theoretic approach of the problems, therefore i- some speculative models not wholly supported с by actual finds

A verification or an >f improvement of these theories or perhaps the s drawing of a new, more realistic picture is posi- sible only on the basis of the analysis of checked find assemblages of new sites. 1. térkép A Kárpát-medence központi területein a paleohidrográfiai - és a felszíni viszonyok rekonstrukciója (Somogyi 1970 után) 1 Jászberény 2 Szolnok 3 Budapest / recent rivers important shifts of channels at the end of the Pleistocene and during the Early Holocene ' Mesolithic sites 82
