Ceramic Production at the Khaybar Walled Oasis During the Mid/Late Third–Early Second Millennium BCE: Evidence for a Burnished Ware Horizon in Northwest Arabia

Arabian Archaeology and Epigraphy, Volume 36, Issue 1, Page 108-137, November 2025.
ABSTRACT The knowledge of Early and Middle Bronze Age ceramics in Northwest Arabia remains limited, particularly in the Medina region, due to the scarcity of archaeological contexts dated to the fourth–first half of the second millennium BCE. Recent research in the Khaybar oasis has revealed significant Bronze Age occupation.

Radiocarbon‐Inferred Population Trajectories for Southeastern Arabia During the Bronze Age

Arabian Archaeology and Epigraphy, Volume 36, Issue 1, Page 24-38, November 2025.
ABSTRACT This paper builds on previous attempts to estimate radiocarbon‐inferred population trends—although in Arabia, these attempts are few. A probabilistic reconstruction of Bronze Age (3200–1300 cal BC) demographic trends using a new data set of radiocarbon rates from across the Arabian Peninsula (n = 1280) is presented and a subset of dates (n ...

Methodological Considerations for the Use of Acid‐Based Pre‐Treatment Protocols for Carbon and Oxygen Analysis of Tooth Enamel

Rapid Communications in Mass Spectrometry, Volume 39, Issue 20, 30 October 2025.
ABSTRACT Rationale Chemical pre‐treatment is a common methodological step aimed to remove exogenous materials introduced to archaeological tooth enamel in the burial environment through diagenetic processes. However, some of these methods, involving the use of oxidising reagents such as NaClO, H2O2, as well as weak acids like CH3COOH, have been shown ...

Structure of the Multiphase Chalcolithic Tell Chiselet–Grădiștea Fundeanca (Romania) From SH‐Wave Full‐Waveform Inversion, Borehole Geophysics and Coring

Archaeological Prospection, Volume 32, Issue 4, Page 899-926, October/December 2025.
ABSTRACT The emergence and development of settlement mounds, also called tells, is of major interest for the analysis of socio‐economic transformations occurring in the lower Danube plain during the East European Chalcolithic period. In this context, the multiphase chronology and structural layout of tells are highly relevant indicators, but small ...

Deciphering Neolithic Habitation in Aegean Thrace Through Geophysical Prospection Surveys

Archaeological Prospection, Volume 32, Issue 4, Page 1031-1046, October/December 2025.
ABSTRACT Despite the relatively extensive archaeological research conducted in Greece focusing on the Neolithic period, Aegean Thrace remains one of the least studied regions. To address this gap, the MAPFARM (Mapping the Early Farmers in Thrace) project employed systematic archaeological surface survey combined with large‐scale geophysical prospection
