The Funnel Beaker Culture (FBC) in Denmark was a significant Neolithic farming culture that thrived from approximately 3950 BC to 2800 BC. It succeeded the Ertebølle culture and was characterized by the use of distinctive funnel-necked beaker ceramics, hence its name. The culture introduced agriculture and animal husbandry to the region, replacing the previous hunter-gatherer lifestyle. People lived in longhouses and built megalithic tombs such as dolmens and passage graves. The Funnel Beaker Culture was eventually replaced by the Single Grave culture around 2800 BC.
