ABSTRACT The early evolutionary history of modern domestic horses (Equus caballus/Equus ferus caballus), known as the DOM2 lineage, is well documented due to numerous archaeological and ancient DNA (aDNA) studies. Although many uncertainties remain in the domestication timeline, current evidence suggests that the domestication of modern horses began in

Identifying the volcanic eruption depicted in a Neolithic Painting at Çatalhöyük, Central Anatolia, Turkey [PDF]
A mural excavated at the Neolithic Çatalhöyük site (Central Anatolia, Turkey) has been interpreted as the oldest known map. Dating to ~6600 BCE, it putatively depicts an explosive summit eruption of the Hasan Dağı twin-peaks volcano located ~130 km ...

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

THE NEOLITHIC OF FOREST-STEPPE TRANSURALS AND IRTYSH AREA: LATEST RESEARCHES AND PERIODIZATION
Recently, the issue of neolitization of Transurals is dominated by two basic concepts that are opposed to each other: the sequencing of traditions as Koshkino-Boborykino by V. T. Kovaleva and as Boborykino-Koshkino by V. A. Zakh.

Pottery shreds as tools in late Neolithic Vinca
Over the last few years, careful analysis of a large quantity of ceramic material found during excavation at Vinca has identified a significant number of ceramic fragments with clear use-wear traces. Recycled fragments of ceramic vessels are characterized by the presence of damage and deformation caused by abrasive processes i.e.

The Genetic Legacy of Cretan Landrace Grapevines and Their Relationship to the Southern Levant
Grapes are more than an agricultural crop; they are a vital part of human history, economy, and culture. Yet the origins of many traditional varieties remain unclear. By studying the genetics of Cretan grapes, we discovered that they are a “genetic mosaic”—combining local lineages with those from the Southern Levant and Eastern Europe.
