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

open access: yesMolecular 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 ...

Early Bronze Age Copper Circulation in the Guadalentín and Segura Valleys (SE Spain)

open access: yesArchaeometry, Volume 68, Issue 5, Page 1139-1151, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Identifying the sources of copper used in Early Bronze Age metalwork from south‐east Spain is key to resolving a long‐running debate concerning centralized control, or lack thereof, over El Argar society's economic organisation. This study provides the first substantial integrated programme of EDXRF and MC‐ICP‐MS analyses for copper‐base ...

The Origins of Fashion

open access: yesEvolutionary Anthropology: Issues, News, and Reviews, Volume 35, Issue 3, September 2026.
ABSTRACT This paper reconceptualizes fashion as a deep‐time system of bodily communication rather than a byproduct of modern consumer societies. We define fashion as a socially transmitted system of bodily display in which patterned variation occurs within shared conventions of appearance.

Genomic Variation and Population Structure of Portuguese Native Dog Breeds

open access: yesAnimal Genetics, Volume 57, Issue 3, June 2026.
ABSTRACT The presence of dogs in Portugal is confirmed by zooarchaeological evidence dating to at least 7600 years ago. The 11 native dog breeds that exist in this territory are therefore the end‐product of a complex evolutionary process. This study characterises the genomic diversity and population structure of 10 native breeds based on whole‐genome ...
