Feral ecologies of the human deep past: multispecies archaeology and palaeo‐synanthropy

Journal of the Royal Anthropological Institute, Volume 30, Issue 4, Page 1062-1084, December 2024.
Abstract This article articulates recent advances in palaeo‐ecology with the goals and ambitions of multispecies archaeology. It centres the synanthropic nexus as a key context for the study of early human‐animal relationships and argues that its evolution yields important yet currently overlooked dynamics shaping the structure of the archaeological ...

Transformation processes in the osteoarchaeological record between the Iron Age and the Roman times with reference to the civitas Treverorum

International Journal of Osteoarchaeology, Volume 34, Issue 6, November/December 2024.
Abstract This paper discusses transformations in human behavior between the Iron Age and the Roman times in the tribal territory of the Treveri, later civitas Treverorum, located between the Rhine and the Ardennes. This aspect has been examined from two perspectives: first, from an anthropological point of view vis‐a‐vis the historical inhabitants, and

The state of the bats in North America

Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, Volume 1541, Issue 1, Page 115-128, November 2024.
We conducted an international expert elicitation to assess 153 bat species in North America. We identified 102 experts from Canada, the United States, and Mexico who could evaluate species status, threats, and population trends. We analyzed their assessments to establish each species’ current conservation status, rank the expected future impact of each

tidysdm: Leveraging the flexibility of tidymodels for species distribution modelling in R

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 10, Page 1789-1795, October 2024.
Abstract In species distribution modelling (SDM), it is common practice to explore multiple machine learning (ML) algorithms and combine their results into ensembles. In R, many implementations of different ML algorithms are available but, as they were mostly developed independently, they often use inconsistent syntax and data structures.

Early Neolithic avifaunal remains from southeast Anatolia provide insight into Early Holocene species distributions and long‐term shifts in their range

Ibis, Volume 166, Issue 4, Page 1264-1279, October 2024.
Based on the species‐rich avifaunas from Early Neolithic sites across Upper Mesopotamia (southeast Türkiye, northern Syria, northern Iraq), we compared seven species' Early Holocene distribution patterns with that of their modern species ranges.
