The transition to farming represents the process by which humans switched from hunting and gathering wild resources to a reliance on domesticated plants and animals. The adoption of domestication and sedentary life was probably promoted by a new system of beliefs and a profound reconfiguration of symbolic and social codes. This paper aims to present how personal ornaments inform the social reorganization of communities by tracking the multiple forms of interactions between groups and individuals. Technological and use-wear analysis of personal adornments, combined with the analysis of a georeferenced database of the bead types used by the last foragers and the first farmers in Europe, explores how interactions and communication networks led to the social reconfiguration of cultural groups and reshaped the cultural geography of Europe 8,000 years ago. The circulation of personal ornaments contributed to building and maintaining extensive and persistent networks of communication between hunter-gatherers and farmers. Long-term stability of contacts enabled the circulation of social, technical, and economic information, essential for the diffusion of the farming lifestyle. The long-term persistence of personal attires within farming communities suggests beads reflected the most entrenched and lasting facets of a farmer鈥檚 identity compared to other cultural proxies.
