Archaeology
Wang is home to a large Neolithic archaeological site with up to six phases of occupation. It was first excavated by Jens Lüning (de) in the 1980s where several intercutting periods came to pass. It is also one of the most southerly eras of the first Linear Pottery culture (LBK) horizon period when sedimentary ideas, although not necessarily new people, came to central Europe. Most famous for the longhouse, this area uncovered several belonging to the LBK.
The site was recently reopened by A.W.R Whittle and D. Hoffman in 2008, 50 meters south of the original excavation where another three longhouses were fully excavated and 3 more uncovered.

gollark: Either isn't really very good.
gollark: Possibly? But at least in the baidicoot case, they seem to be doing the top one.
gollark: We can't actually confirm that, and even if you really aren't, if you archive it you might use it later.
gollark: Which I also don't think is very good.
