The site of Barmaky currently marks the oldest Epigravettian occupation of north‐western Ukraine shortly after the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM), dated to around 19 cal. ka BP. Stable isotope analyses of bone collagen from six terrestrial mammals and two bird species show a comparatively highly structured palaeo‐food web.

Homo sapiens, industrialisation and the environmental mismatch hypothesis

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT For the vast majority of the evolutionary history of Homo sapiens, a range of natural environments defined the parameters within which selection shaped human biology. Although human‐induced alterations to the terrestrial biosphere have been evident for over 10,000 years, the pace and scale of change has accelerated dramatically since the onset
