The First Temperate Neolithic (FTN) is an archaeological horizon consisting of the earliest archaeological cultures of Neolithic Southeastern Europe, dated to c. 6400–5100 BCE.[1] The cultures of the FTN were the first to practice agriculture in temperate Europe, which required significant innovations in farming technology previously adapted to a mediterranean climate.[2]
The constituent cultures of the FTN are:[1]
- the Starčevo–Kőrös–Criș culture, encompassing:
- the Starčevo culture, c. 6200–5200 BCE, western Bulgaria, Serbia, Bosnia, eastern Croatia and western Hungary;
- the Kőrös culture, c. 6400–5100 BCE, eastern Hungary;
- the Criş culture, c. 6400–5200 BCE, Romania;
- the Karanovo I/II culture, c. 6300–5100 BCE, central and southern Bulgaria;
- the Macedonian First Neolithic, c. 6600–5300 BCE, North Macedonia;
- the Poljanica group, c. 6300–5200 BCE, northeast Bulgaria;
- the West Bulgarian Painted Ware culture, c. 6200–5200 BCE, western Bulgaria.
- the Vinča culture, c. 5400–4500 BC, Serbia and near countries

Well, that’s interesting to know that Psilotum nudum are known as whisk ferns. Psilotum nudum is the commoner species of the two. While the P. flaccidum is a rare species and is found in the tropical islands. Both the species are usually epiphytic in habit and grow upon tree ferns. These species may also be terrestrial and grow in humus or in the crevices of the rocks.
