The Oldendorfer Totenstatt site with its many hitherto unexplored finds lies in the middle of a period of upheaval in which the people of northern Europe radically changed their way of life: they settled down and developed from hunter-gatherers to farmers and herdsmen. With the new way of life also came new tools and a new faith, which is reflected in the burial coffins in the Oldendorfer Totenstatt. In the Niedersächsisches Landesmuseum in Hanover, Dr Julia Menne encounters a key piece in her project that helps to reconstruct this radical change: an earthenware cup with a handle.
