Ertebøllekulturen (5.400-3.900 f.Kr.)
Stedet kom til at give navn til en periode i vor historie, Ertebøllekulturen. Det skyldes, at Nationalmuseet i 1890'erne udgravede en kæmpestor dynge østers- og
muslingeskaller på stedet og opdagede, at den var menneskeskabt, og at mennesker havde boet bogstaveligt talt ovenpå dyngen. Begrebet ”køkkenmødding” fik sin plads i europæisk faglitteratur p.g.a. Ertebøllekulturen. Bopladser fra denne jæger- og samlerkultur er fundet mange steder i Danmark, Sydsverige, Slesvig-Holsten og langs
den nordtyske østersøkyst. I Ertebøllekulturen dukker brugen af keramik op. Spidsbunde kar og olielamper er typiske for denne oldtidsperiode.

Ertebølle through history:
Ertebølle is a small village but is well known in internationally archaeological circles despite its size and has lent its name, the Ertebølle Culture (c. 5000 - 4000 BC) to the historical period itself. The culture was discovered in the 1890s by the Danish National Museum when archaeologists excavated a gigantic heap of oyster and mussel shells near Ertebølle and discovered that humans
had not only created the heap but had more or less lived on top of it. The concept of the “kitchen midden” gained credence in European archaeological literature due to the discovery of the Ertebølle Culture. Settlements established by this hunting and gathering culture have been found all over Denmark, Southern Sweden, and
Schleswig-Holstein and along the North German Baltic coast.
