Dating the Early Neolithic in Pelagonia

Documenta Praehistorica
Since Gordon V. Childe first discussed the diffusion of culture from the Near East into Europe 100 years ago, various models for the advance of the Neolithic way of life have been proposed. Chronology has played an important role in this, but not all regions were included in the narratives due to a lack of data. Recent investigations in the border area

New Chronological Evidence of Early Human Activities 8000 Years Ago in the Coastal Region of Fujian, Southern China

Quaternary
Coastal regions played a key role in the emergence of Early Neolithic cultures. Fluctuating sea levels shaped prehistoric human migration, settlement patterns, and adaptation strategies. The lower reaches of the Min River in Fujian were a major centre of

Stable Isotope Research for Human Bioarchaeology in Southeast Asia: A Review of Research Trends, Gaps, and Opportunities

International Journal of Osteoarchaeology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Despite the increasing number of studies undertaking isotopic analyses on archaeological material, some regions of the world and certain research foci remain underresearched and underrepresented. One of these regions is Southeast Asia, where bioarchaeological research was only comparatively recently established compared with other regions of ...

Tooth Enamel Carbon and Oxygen Isotope Ratios Reveal Shifts in Neolithic Caprine Husbandry on the Dalmatian Coast, Croatia

International Journal of Osteoarchaeology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Stable isotope analysis of sequential samples of ancient sheep and goat tooth enamel is used to investigate feeding, breeding, and mobility strategies at Neolithic villages on the Dalmatian Coast of Croatia. δ13C values demonstrate clear enrichment of caprine diet in 13C from the Early (c. 8.1–7.5 kya cal.

The Early Neolithic pottery of Keçiçayiri and its place in the North-western Anatolian Neolithisation process

Documenta Praehistorica, 2019
The region of Inner North-western Anatolia was a key node in the transmission of the Neolithic lifestyle from the Near East to Marmara, and from there to the Balkans and the rest of Europe. It formed the intersection between several important routes and

Dental Modifications Indicate Social Identity in the Insular Region of Wallacea, Indonesia 3634–2268 Cal BP

International Journal of Osteoarchaeology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The dispersal of Austronesian‐speaking people across Island Southeast Asia and the Pacific during the Late Holocene was associated with the spread of shared cultural practices, including intentional dental modifications. These practices, like tooth ablation and dental staining (likely with betel quid), are interpreted as embodied expressions ...

A Review of Malta’s Pre-Temple Neolithic Pottery Wares

Open Archaeology, 2023
Sites from the earliest known phases of Maltese prehistory often consist of scatters of sherds for the Għar Dalam and Skorba phases (6000–4800 BCE), and tomb contexts for the Żebbuġ phase (3800–3600 BCE). Neolithic studies are, therefore, heavily reliant

Needle in a haystack: Holocene history of European larch in Central Europe revisited

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Defining nativity of species is crucial for their management. However, this is a complex task, especially for species that have been used and spread by humans for a long time. We combined paleoecological records with extensive genetic data to investigate the Holocene history of European larch—a common and economically important tree species in Central ...

Archaeobotanical evidence on the Neolithisation of Northeast Bulgaria in the Balkan-Anatolian context: chronological framework, plant economy and land use

Българско е-Списание за Археология, 2014
The study presents archaeobotanical analyses of four Early Neolithic sites (Koprivets, Orlovets, Dzhulyunitsa, Samovodene) from Northeast Bulgaria. Those archaeobotanical data are linked to comprehensive series of 14C dates for the early Neolithic in ...
