The possibility of the local origin of these industries in the Balkans and in the middle Danube Basin from the Moustero-Levallosian has not been confirmed by recent studies. Some typological features indicate links with the Near Eastern Emirian/Ahmarian tradition. After reaching south-east Europe this tradition contributed to the formation of the Early Upper Paleolithic units in the Balkan, such as the Bachokirian which - in turn - participated in the genesis of - at least some - elements of "Aurignacian package" in south-eastern Europe.
