The local paleoenvironment of Kalavan‐2 based on small‐vertebrate remains and its implications for human‐environment‐dynamics between 60 and 35 ka in the Armenian Highlands

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Kalavan‐2, a high‐altitude (∼1640 m a.s.l.) open‐air site in Armenia, preserves stratified Middle Paleolithic occupations with a rich small‐vertebrate record. Luminescence dating has placed site formation between ~60 and 45 ka, but without independent chronological control of the microvertebrate accumulation.

Marine Corps Cultural Similarities to Native Americans [PDF]

, 2018
According to the 4-field approach to anthropology, a people can be defined by its archaeology, culture, biology and linguistics (Hicks, 2013). Native Americans and Marines have striking similarities as a people when using this approach, especially in ...

Intensification of the Southern Hemisphere westerly winds during the last deglaciation (18.5–14.0 cal ka BP): Evidence from Pearly Beach wetland on the southern Cape coast of South Africa

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The southwestern Cape of South Africa experiences a complex and dynamic climate, shaped by the interplay between the temperate Southern Hemisphere westerly winds and the subtropical easterlies. Despite the climatic sensitivity of the region, relatively few studies have examined how conditions have varied since the last deglaciation in response

The Value of Experience: Lessons from a Study of Reenactment

EXARC Journal, 2016
It is no secret that in many ways experimental archaeology overlaps with what has come to be called experiential archaeology, an interpretive and humanistic approach to the past.

Geochronology of the Whittlesey sedimentary succession, eastern England: The ‘Pompeii’ of the British late Middle Pleistocene to Holocene record

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract The sedimentary succession at Whittlesey preserves a unique British late Middle Pleistocene to Holocene record back to a time equivalent to at least marine oxygen isotope stage 8 (ca. 250 ka). This study builds on previously published sedimentology, geochronology and palaeoecology results to establish 20 sedimentary facies associations, with ...

Assessing the intensity of Late Quaternary humid phases in the Nefud Desert, northern Arabia

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The climate history of the major dryland zones of the world, such as the Saharo–Arabian Desert belt, plays a key role in the dispersal of early humans through these intermittently inhospitable regions. Here, we assess the relative intensity of Late Quaternary humid phases in northern Arabia through lithological, geochemical, palaeoecological ...

Revealing growth increments in fossil and modern otoliths with backscattered electron imaging

Limnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.
Abstract Otoliths, the functional earstones of teleost fishes, record growth in the form of microscopic increments, making them key archives of individual life histories. While increment analysis is commonly applied to modern otoliths, studies of fossil (Holocene) otoliths remain limited.

Ion Chemistry in Dielectric Barrier Discharge Ionization: Recent Advances in Direct Gas Phase Analyses

Mass Spectrometry Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Dielectric barrier discharge ionization (DBDI) sources, employing low‐temperature plasma, have emerged as sensitive and efficient ionization tools with various atmospheric pressure ionization processes. In this review, we summarize a historical overview of the development of DBDI, highlighting key principles of gas‐phase ion chemistry and the ...
