Stratigraphic reassessment of Grotta Romanelli sheds light on Middle-Late Pleistocene palaeoenvironments and human settling in the Mediterranean

Scientific Reports, 2022
During the last century, Grotta Romanelli (Southern Italy) has been a reference site for the European Late Pleistocene stratigraphy, due to its geomorphological setting and archaeological and palaeontological content.

Chibanian, Middle Pleistocene

, 2022
In Japan, studies and researches of the earth started in the late 19th Century after the opening of the doors to the western countries. Japanese had to learn most geological concepts discovered in the western countries. A few concepts such as tsunami, Wadati-Benioff zone and Brunhes-Matuyama reversal have been given Japanese or partly Japanese names ...

“Hidden” Landscape of Prehistoric Burial Monuments: The Use of Remote Sensing in the Detection of Neolithic Long Barrows in Bohemia (Czech Republic)

Archaeological Prospection, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Neolithic long barrows are among the earliest monumental structures in Europe, yet in many parts of Central Europe their surface expression has been largely erased by long‐term agricultural activity. This study evaluates the potential of integrated remote sensing approaches for identifying and contextualizing long barrows and associated ...

Subsurface geology of the Torino metropolitan area (Westernmost Po Plain, NW Italy)

Journal of Maps
The 1:100,000 subsurface geological map of the Torino metropolitan area covers ∼900 km2 in the westernmost Po Plain, an area of great relevance being crossed by the late Neogene to Quaternary ‘Torino Hill Front’ (THF), a tens of kilometers long, NW ...

First fossil turtle from Hainan Island, China [PDF]

Research & Knowledge, 2015
Although Hainan Island is one of the richest regions for living turtle species in China, no fossil turtle had hitherto been discovered there. In this paper we report on a partial turtle shell from the Middle Pleistocene of Xinchong Cave, Changjing ...

Multi‐Method Geophysical Surveys Between and Around the Kerlescan and the Manio Megalithic Alignments in Carnac (Morbihan, France)

Archaeological Prospection, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Carnac alignments in Morbihan (France) are among the most famous Neolithic sites of the world. Paradoxically, they have benefited little from a thorough renewal of archaeological data over the past century. There are many reasons for this, but it is mainly because the site has been regarded more as a monument to visit and protect than as ...

The Late Early–Middle Pleistocene Mammal Fauna from the Megalopolis Basin (Peloponnese, Greece) and Its Importance for Biostratigraphy and Paleoenvironment

Quaternary
Recent investigations in the upper Lower–Middle Pleistocene deposits of the Megalopolis Basin (Greece) led to the discovery of several sites/findspots with abundant faunal material. Here, we provide an updated overview including new results on the micro-

Phylogenomics and Biogeography of the Eastern Asian–Eastern North American Disjunct Genus Hylodesmum (Fabaceae)

Biological Diversity, EarlyView.
Integrating data from plastid genomes, nrDNA, and 353 low‐copy nuclear genes, this study establishes a robust phylogenetic framework for Hylodesmum. This framework supports a taxonomic revision recognizing 18 species and reveals a complex pattern of bidirectional EA–ENA dispersal, with mammals as a plausible dispersal agent. ABSTRACT Phylogenomics with
