Early Neolithic wine of Georgia in the South Caucasus. | LitMetric

AI Article Synopsis

  • Chemical analyses of ancient pottery from Georgia indicate the earliest evidence of grape wine and viniculture dating back to 6,000-5,800 BC during the early Neolithic period.
  • The findings are supported by environmental studies and the presence of grape-related remains, suggesting a strong link between the jars used for wine and the broader archaeological context of the Shulaveri-Shomutepe Culture.
  • This discovery highlights the significance of the region in the history of wine production, setting the foundation for its later developments in Europe and beyond.

Article Abstract

Chemical analyses of ancient organic compounds absorbed into the pottery fabrics from sites in Georgia in the South Caucasus region, dating to the early Neolithic period (ca. 6,000-5,000 BC), provide the earliest biomolecular archaeological evidence for grape wine and viniculture from the Near East, at ca. 6,000-5,800 BC. The chemical findings are corroborated by climatic and environmental reconstruction, together with archaeobotanical evidence, including grape pollen, starch, and epidermal remains associated with a jar of similar type and date. The very large-capacity jars, some of the earliest pottery made in the Near East, probably served as combination fermentation, aging, and serving vessels. They are the most numerous pottery type at many sites comprising the so-called "Shulaveri-Shomutepe Culture" of the Neolithic period, which extends into western Azerbaijan and northern Armenia. The discovery of early sixth millennium BC grape wine in this region is crucial to the later history of wine in Europe and the rest of the world.
