Rare Alkali Elements as Markers of Local Glass Working in Medieval Tolmo de Minateda (Spain). [PDF]

Chempluschem, 2022
Rare alkali element contamination of medieval vitreous materials by both the crucible ceramic and fuel vapour are shown in this work. Systematic recycling of old cullet, using crucibles made from clay from the Central Iberian Massif, resulted in unique trace element patterns that can serve as identifiers of Iberian glass processing. Abstract Analytical

Validating a Target-Enrichment Design for Capturing Uniparental Haplotypes in Ancient Domesticated Animals. [PDF]

Mol Ecol Resour
ABSTRACT In the last three decades, DNA sequencing of ancient animal osteological assemblages has become an important tool complementing standard archaeozoological approaches to reconstruct the history of animal domestication. However, osteological assemblages of key archaeological contexts are not always available or do not necessarily preserve enough

American Anthropologist, Volume 125, Issue 4, Page 824-839, December 2023., 2023
Abstract This article is a reflection on early colonial industries as caring labor rather than just commodity production or resistance. We draw on Indigenous philosophies of relations and Amazonian ontologies to foreground care and frame the Caribbean material record.

Heritage as liberation

American Anthropologist, Volume 125, Issue 2, Page 420-434, June 2023., 2023
Abstract Why aren't archaeologists engaging in more substantive heritage work, and how might we do so? This article offers a conceptual framework for mobilizing our praxis toward the achievement of collective emancipation—what I am calling heritage as liberation.

Assessing place‐based identities in the early Middle Ages: a proposal for post‐Roman Iberia

Early Medieval Europe, Volume 31, Issue 1, Page 23-50, February 2023., 2023
Sociological models of place‐based identity can be used to better understand the social dynamics of local communities and how they interact with their surroundings. This paper explores how these theoretical models of belonging to a place, in tandem with communal cognitive maps, can be applied to post‐Roman contexts, taking the Iberian Peninsula in the ...
