Prehistory begins with anthropogenesis, a social-spiritual process of human formation in time and space. In this hall, the most representative is the Hamangia culture, named after the train station of the same name in Tulcea County. The communities came from Asia Minor, on the western coast of the Black Sea. The culture had a long evolution. It is about what Maria Gimbutas calls Old European Civilisation.
