Attended by 45 scholars from seven nations, this first PAGEs 2k Network workshop in the world’s largest country took place at the siberian Federal University in Krasnoyarsk, Russia. timely aspects of archaeology, biogeochemistry, climatology, ecology, history, and epidemiology were catalyzed in 20 stimulating talks. Focusing on the available paleo-evidence from Inner Eurasia, the authors not only devoted critical discussion to data-inherent and methodological-induced limitations, but also prioritized future research avenues towards a better understanding of environmental and societal changes throughout much of the Holocene. A cross-disciplinary mapping project was launched as a direct outcome of this meeting, with great enthusiasm from all participants expected to translate into a unique database. Considering the greater Altai region as a nucleus for sociocultural evolution, two geographical domains have been defined: A core region from 60-120°E and 40-60°N, as well as a wider expanse from 30-150°E and 40-60°N. Following on from the LALIA concept (Büntgen et al. 2016, 2017), the database will comprise information from archaeological findings, disease outbreaks, genetic structures, glacier dynamics, ice cores, lake sediments, pollen profiles, trade routes, tree rings, and written sources (Fig. 1). Output from externally forced, coupled climate-model simulations of the last 2000 years is anticipated to provide mechanistic understanding of the underlying processes of past climate dynamics and their potential direct and indirect influences on environmental conditions, as well as trends and extremes in the sociopolitical and economic behavior of ancient societies (Büntgen and Di Cosmo 2016). Operating across different spatiotemporal scales, our interdisciplinary approach aims to answer the question: “How did climate change affect the rise and demise of Eurasia’s nomadic steppe empires?”.
