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

Arabian Archaeology and Epigraphy, EarlyView.
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.

One‐Class Autoencoders for Porcelain Art Attribution: The Case of William Billingsley

Archaeometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This comprehensive study explores the application of advanced machine learning techniques, specifically one‐class autoencoders, for the authentication and attribution of English porcelain artworks. Focusing primarily on the works of William Billingsley (1758–1828), one of England's most celebrated porcelain decorators, we demonstrate how ...

Threatened cockatoo adapts foraging strategy to survive habitat loss from fire

Ibis, EarlyView.
Fire regimes are changing across the globe as a result of human‐induced climate change. For granivorous bird species, changes in fire regimes can affect seed availability and the persistence of populations. We investigated the foraging behaviour of Glossy Black Cockatoos Calyptorhynchus lathami halmaturinus, a resource specialist, following large‐scale
