The earliest finds in the Baden-Wurttemberg area of Germany, depending on the site, date to the middle paleolithic and neolithic periods¹. While some finds date back to the 6th millenia B.C.E. and can be found in the town of Vaihingen between what is today Karlsruhe and Stuttgart near the river Enz², other finds have been gathered in Vaihingen and appear to go back to the 6th Century C.E.³.
