Deer Antler δ18O Records Desalination in Israel's Water Supply

Rapid Communications in Mass Spectrometry, Volume 40, Issue 19, 15 October 2026.
ABSTRACT Rationale Stable oxygen isotope ratios (δ¹⁸O) in mammalian tissues are widely used to reconstruct past climates, seasonal patterns, and animal origins. These analyses assume that animals drink local rainwater—an assumption now challenged by large‐scale anthropogenic water management.

Target Capture of Ancient Shell DNA Enables Phylogenetic Reconstruction of Deep‐Sea Molluscs

Molecular Ecology Resources, Volume 26, Issue 7, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Target capture is widely used to enrich endogenous DNA from calcium phosphate skeletal material in vertebrates, but its performance on calcium carbonate hard parts widely produced by invertebrates remains poorly understood. Here, we compared DNA recovery from four fresh and 12 ancient (eight radiocarbon‐dated to 1671–1135 years old before ...

Comparing the Performance of Double‐Stranded and Single‐Stranded DNA Libraries for Ancient Oral Microbiome Reconstruction

Molecular Ecology Resources, Volume 26, Issue 7, October 2026.
ABSTRACT DNA library construction methods can affect the recovery of ancient DNA, thus influencing downstream analyses. While single‐stranded library preparation (ssLib) has been shown to outperform double‐stranded (dsLib) for highly degraded vertebrate host DNA, especially for samples older than 40,000 years, few studies have examined how library ...

Mapping Palaeolithic Imprints: Spatial Analysis of Hand Stencils in El Castillo Cave (Spain) Through Geomatic Techniques

Archaeometry, Volume 68, Issue 5, Page 943-959, October 2026.
ABSTRACT We present the application of a new quantitative approach to space study in Palaeolithic cave art. Using GIS, we analysed the distribution and position of hand stencils in El Castillo cave to track the gestures and behaviours of Palaeolithic societies.

Application of Multi‐Method Dating for Understanding the Gravettian North of Moravia, Central Europe

Archaeometry, Volume 68, Issue 5, Page 1050-1061, October 2026.
ABSTRACT This article presents the results of integrating three methods to assess the age of the Upper Palaeolithic site of Pietraszyn 11 (SW Poland), close to the Moravian Gate. Sediment chronology determined using optically stimulated luminescence produced promising, yet ambiguous results (51.0 ± 3.7 to 20.3 ± 0.7 ka).
