Bridging the Late Antique Gap in Northwest Arabia: New Archaeological Evidence on the Occupation of Wādī al‐Qurā (al‐ʿUlā [AlUla], Saudi Arabia) Between the Third and Seventh Centuries CE

Arabian Archaeology and Epigraphy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In 2019, the Dadan Archaeological Project (CNRS/RCU/AFALULA) identified a Late Antique village 1 km south of ancient Dadan in the al‐ʿUlā valley (northwest Saudi Arabia). Three excavation seasons at this site (2021–2023) have uncovered a massive building constructed in the late third or early fourth cent.

Lithic analysis in African archaeology: Advances and key themes

Archaeometry, EarlyView.
Abstract Stone artifacts (lithics) preserve for extended periods; thus they are key evidence for probing the evolution of human technological behaviors. Africa boasts the oldest record of stone artifacts, spanning 3.3 Ma, rare instances of ethnographic stone tool‐making, and stone tool archives from diverse ecological settings, making it an anchor for ...

Oviposition Site Selection in Relation to Hatchling Feeding Performance in Two Sympatric Papilio Butterflies

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
We investigated oviposition site selection and hatchling feeding performance in two sympatric swallowtail butterflies, Papilio xuthus and Papilio memnon (Lepidoptera: Papilionidae), that utilize Citrus trees as host plants. Our study suggests that each species has unique relationships between maternal oviposition preferences and hatchling feeding ...

When biology meets materials science – Interdisciplinary applications of electron microscopy

Journal of Microscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Research at the interface between biology and materials science creates challenges for electron microscopists. Everything from the sample preparation to the choice of imaging and analytical techniques and the interpretation of the resulting data refuses to sit comfortably within the domain of one discipline or the other.

In‐vitro puncture experiment using alligator teeth tracks the formation of dental microwear and its association with hardness of the diet

The Anatomical Record, Volume 309, Issue 9, Page 2424-2441, September 2026.
Abstract With the development of dental microwear texture analysis (DMTA), there has been an increasing application of DMTA for dietary estimation in extant and fossil reptiles, including dinosaurs. While numerous feeding experiments exist for herbivorous mammals, knowledge remains limited for carnivorous reptiles. This study aimed to qualitatively and
