Mesolithic in Switzerland

The Mesolithic in Switzerland represents a crucial transitional period in Swiss prehistory, spanning from approximately 9500 to 5500 BCE. This archaeological period is characterized by the appearance and proliferation of very small arrow points called microliths, marking a significant shift from the preceding Epipaleolithic traditions to the emerging Neolithic agricultural societies. The Mesolithic period in Switzerland is broadly divided into two chronological phases: the Early and Middle Mesolithic (9500–7000 BCE) and the Late and Final Mesolithic (7000–5500 BCE).
