Summary/Abstract: There are many aspects regarding the analysis of the relation between human communities and landscape. One of them regards the way in which humans transform one location for habitation purposes. Another one regards the influence of several environment factors upon the habitation dynamic from a settlement or micro zone. Three cases of tell settlements were analyzed: Gumelniţa, Sultana and Căscioarele, each of them with specific patterns in their relation with the landscape. In summary people chose certain locations which they transformed for an optimum habitation and there are environment factors (e.g. floods) which had a direct impact upon the habitation dynamic from one specific area.
