Preservation of stable isotopic composition in charred grains: Implications for paleoenvironmental and archeological research

open access: yesJournal of Quaternary Science, Volume 40, Issue 4, Page 645-656, May 2025.
ABSTRACT The charring process can preserve archaeobotanical remains, providing valuable insights into past climates, agricultural practices, and plant growth conditions. However, the impact of charring on stable isotopes, especially at temperatures above 300°C, remains poorly understood.

The effect of seaweed fertilisation on sulfur isotope ratios (δ34S) and grain size in barley: implications for agronomy and archaeological research

open access: yesFrontiers in Environmental Archaeology
IntroductionStable sulfur isotope ratios (δ34S) in bone collagen are often employed to study the consumption of marine and freshwater fish, wetland grazing, marine foraging patterns, and the possible geographic origins of food sources.

Orphan crops of archaeology‐based crop history research

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 7, Issue 3, Page 562-589, May 2025.
Agrobiodiversity is central to sustainable farming worldwide. Cultivation, conservation and reintroduction of diverse plant species, including ‘forgotten’ and ‘underutilized’ crops, contribute to global agrobiodiversity, living ecosystems and sustainable food production.

Archaeobotanical evidence for the emergence of pastoralism and farming in southern Africa

open access: yesActa Palaeobotanica, 2022
Several models which remain equivocal and controversial cite migration and/or diffusion for the emergence and spread of pastoralism and farming in southern Africa during the first millennium AD.

Forgetting cane grasses: Switching temporal focus to reveal mosaics of Saccharum diversity

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 7, Issue 3, Page 590-602, May 2025.
Sugarcane (Saccharum cvs.) is one of the most important cash crops globally. Related varieties and species of cane grasses of the genus Saccharum are also important subsistence crops in the Indo‐Pacific region. Despite the significance of these crops globally and recent advances in genetic characterisation, the histories and geographies of ...

Re-analysis of archaeobotanical remains from pre- and early agricultural sites provides no evidence for a narrowing of the wild plant food spectrum during the origins of agriculture in southwest Asia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Archaeobotanical evidence from southwest Asia is often interpreted as showing that the spectrum of wild plant foods narrowed during the origins of agriculture, but it has long been acknowledged that the recognition of wild plants as foods is problematic.
