Abstract

This paper discusses a rise of Lake Ilmen in the Holocene, its origin, and consequences for the Neolithic culture of the region. We assume that in the second half of the Holocene there was a long-lasting level rise of Lake Ilmen. The level rise was associated with the Holocene Ladoga transgression into the Ilmen-Volkhov basin.
