Holocene shoreline displacement and the impact of the Storegga tsunami on Hinnøya, northern Norway

Boreas, EarlyView.
The Holocene relative sea‐level (RSL) history of Norway's largest island, Hinnøya, has been investigated in detail, using sediment records from 25 isolation basins. The sediments were analysed for macrofossil and phytoplankton content, which served as the basis for identifying marine–lacustrine transitions, that is isolation contacts. Terrestrial plant

A bifacial paradise—The site of Ochtmissen, Germany, and its lithic assemblage in the context of the last glacial (early MIS 4) in the north‐central European Lowland

Boreas, EarlyView.
The Palaeolithic site of Ochtmissen (Lower Saxony, Germany) was excavated in fluvial terrace deposits during the winter of 1993/1994. The current study presents, for the first time, a thorough analysis of the lithic assemblage, encompassing its primary technological and typological characteristics, as well as the type and age of the fluvial deposits ...

Dispersal, source and glass chemistry of a third tephra unit within Iceland's Settlement Layer

Boreas, EarlyView.
Tephra layers may be studied to understand the dynamics and sequence of past explosive volcanism. In Iceland, the distinctive Settlement Layer (AD ~877) underlies almost all archaeological evidence for the Norse Settlement and is preserved in soils across Iceland and as cryptotephra overseas.

AlpIce‐1: a database of geochronological and geomorphological constraints on Alps‐wide palaeoglacier fluctuations between the Last Glacial Maximum and the Holocene

Boreas, EarlyView.
The AlpIce‐1 database is the first compilation of published geomorphological and geochronological markers constraining build‐up, culmination and decay of glaciers from the Last Glacial Maximum through the Holocene across the entire European Alps. AlpIce‐1 integrates more than 4200 surface‐exposure and radiocarbon ages, homogenized, quality controlled ...

Atlantic trade and the West African market economy: New evidence from cowry imports, 1650–1905

The Economic History Review, EarlyView.
Abstract Between the seventeenth and twentieth centuries, billions of cowries arrived in West Africa, leaving one of the few quantitative traces available for historians to measure the Atlantic trade's impact on the precolonial market economy. Yet, current estimates substantially underestimate the volume of cowry imports.

Beyond Immediate Givenness: Husserl's Content‐Apprehension Schema in Light of Merleau‐Ponty's Critique of Sensation

European Journal of Philosophy, EarlyView.
Abstract Merleau‐Ponty's Phenomenology of Perception (2012 [1945]) opens with a detailed critique of traditional philosophical accounts of sensation, generally understood as having Husserl's “content‐apprehension schema” among its targets. The schema sees perception as resulting from the interpretation (“apprehension” or “apperception”) of “raw ...
