<P align="justify"> The Mesolithic, … <P align="justify"> The Mesolithic, also called the Middle Stone Age, is a prehistoric period following the [[Palaeolithic|Palaeolithic]] (Old Stone Age) and preceding the Neolithic (New Stone Age). The Mesolithic began when hunting communities adapted their source of livelihood to the changed conditions caused by the end of the [[Ice Age|Ice Age]]. Because in most of [[Fennoscandia|Fennoscandia]], this period represents the earliest settlement, it has also been called the Older Stone Age. The earliest settlement in Fennoscandia, which had its roots in western Europe, pushed north along the coast of Norway, reaching the Varanger Fjord region c. 9500 B.C., when most of Fennoscandia was still covered by the continental ice sheet. Another wave of settlers starting out from central Russia and also partly from the area of the present-day Baltic countries made its way into eastern Fennoscandia c. 8900 B.C., reaching Upper Lapland c. 7300 B.C., where pioneers from the west around the Varanger Fjord had already arrived some 500 years earlier. About 7800 B.C., pioneers from Norway also come to the Norrland region of Sweden, where a second wave of settlers arrived from southern Sweden c. 6500 B.C. The Mesolithic ended as characteristics of the New Stone Age, primarily agriculture and secondarily [[Ceramic|ceramics]], appeared in different parts of Fennoscandia in the period 5300-4000 B.C. <BR><BR> [[Stone Age|Stone Age]]<BR><BR> [[Chronology|Chronology]]</P><BR><BR>
