Palaeolithic art in Slovenia

open access: yesDocumenta Praehistorica, 2009
This article is a review of Slovenian Palaeolithic ‘art’ objects. Most were found quite some time ago and were described as ‘art’ by their excavators, who undertook no further examination and authentication. More recent finds, like the Mousterian ‘flute’, were thoroughly examined,but in the case of the flute, there is still no uniform agreement on ...

Building phenotypic character matrices for phylogenetic inference: exploration of 35 years of practice

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Recent methodological development in phylogenetic inference has focused predominantly on molecular data. However, renewed interest in other data types, particularly morphological data, has followed from the increased recognition of the power of total evidence and tip‐dating approaches, including fossil data, for inference of time‐scaled trees ...

A re-examination of variability in handaxe form in the British Palaeolithic [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The antiquity of handaxes was first noted over 200 years ago (Frere, 1800) and since then archaeologists have attempted to categorise and explain them. We are now much closer to elucidating the answers to why and how they were made, what they were used ...

Found: The Palaeolithic of Qatar

open access: yes, 2014
The seeming lack of evidence for a Palaeolithic presence in Qatar has been enigmatic. This has now changed. Here we report on discoveries made by the PADMAC Unit during 2013/2014 and the far-reaching implications of these findings. Our preliminary analysis of the Qatar lithic assemblages — QSS25, QSS29 (PADMAC Unit collection) and A-group Site I and A ...

Population Genomics Insights into Pharmacogenomic Differentiation Between East Asians and Europeans

open access: yesClinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Genetic variation contributes substantially to interindividual and interpopulation differences in drug response, yet most pharmacogenomic studies remain biased toward European populations. Here, we systematically assessed pharmacogenomic variation across East Asians (EAS) and Europeans (EUR) using public genomic datasets and investigated the potential ...

open access: yes, 2008
This thesis represents the first investigation to examine Lower and Middle Palaeolithic technological behaviour in Syria in its wider landscape context, focussing on material from the two main river valleys; the Orontes and the Euphrates.
