Phytolith Palaeoenvironments at Mumba Rock Shelter [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2021
The rock shelter site of Mumba in northern Tanzania plays a pivotal role in the overall study of the late Pleistocene archaeology of East Africa with an emphasis on the Middle to Later Stone Age transition. We used phytolith analysis to reconstruct general plant habitat physiognomy around the site from the onset of the late Pleistocene to recent times,

Why Mesolithic Populations Started Eating Crabs on the European Atlantic Façade Only Over the Past 15 Years?

open access: yesOpen Archaeology, 2022
Mesolithic populations from coastal areas are known as hunter-gatherer-fishers. This way of life is visible in the landscape owing to the presence of large accumulations of shells named shell middens. These anthropogenic refuse heaps are composed of high

The Cenozoic palaeoenvironment of the Arctic Ocean [PDF]

open access: yesNature, 2006
The history of the Arctic Ocean during the Cenozoic era (0-65 million years ago) is largely unknown from direct evidence. Here we present a Cenozoic palaeoceanographic record constructed from >400 m of sediment core from a recent drilling expedition to the Lomonosov ridge in the Arctic Ocean.

Holocene evolution of the Banni Plain at the north‐east margin of the Arabian Sea: Constraints from a ca 50 m long sediment core

open access: yesThe Depositional Record, 2023
Holocene evolutionary history of the Banni Plain in the Great Rann of the Kachchh Basin is reconstructed from a subsurface sediment core of ca 50 m. Detailed data on textural and lithofacies variations, grain‐size analysis, environmental magnetism and ...

Palynofacies, palaeoenvironments and petroleum [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Micropalaeontology, 1982
Abstract. During the past decade, transmitted light microscopy of dispersed organic particles has become an important tool for assessing the petroleum potential of sedimentary basins. The main components of palynofacies and the colours of the microfossils preserved therein are widely used in the oil industry to aid the determination of organic ...

Peuplements paléolithiques et paléoenvironnements pléistocènes dans le Massif central

open access: yesArchéopages, 2022
During the last decades, the deployment of preventive operations related to ancient Prehistory in Auvergne permitted the exposure of many sites, whose contribution appears to be complementary to that of great historic locations.
