The Late Agricultural Development of Central Arabian Oases—Archaeobotanical and Archaeozoological Studies of the al‐Kharj Oasis

Arabian Archaeology and Epigraphy, Volume 37, Issue 1, Page 317-355, November 2026.
ABSTRACT While oasis settlements emerged during the Bronze Age in Eastern and Northern Arabia, the settlement process in Central Arabia was different. Excavations at al‐Yamāma—main ancient settlement of the al‐Kharj oasis (Riyadh Province, KSA)—suggest that the latter did not emerge before the second half of the first millennium BCE.

Dual‐Locus Metabarcoding Reveals Dry‐Season Dietary Differentiation Between Elephants and Impalas in a South African Savanna

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 10, October 2026.
We applied dual‐locus DNA metabarcoding to compare dry‐season diets of African elephants and impalas in a South African savanna. Despite similar dietary diversity, the two species differed substantially in dietary composition, with differentiation associated with fine‐scale taxonomic differences rather than overall dietary breadth.
