How Smooth Should Curves Be for Calibrating Radiocarbon Ages? [PDF]

Radiocarbon, 1994
We show that smoothed versions of the high-resolution calibration curve should be used when 14C ages are calibrated with large (> ∼30 14C yr) measurement errors (represented by standard deviation δm) or are mixtures of elements of variable age (natural sample error with standard deviation δn).

Hunting Strategies and Game Exploitation Organization in the Magdalenian: An Integrated Approach Based on Mortality Profiles and Stable Isotopes at Chaves Cave (Huesca, Spain)

International Journal of Osteoarchaeology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Understanding hunting strategies in Upper Paleolithic contexts remains challenging due to the complex relationships between prey behavior, environmental conditions, and human decision‐making. Addressing these dynamics requires integrating archeozoological, geospatial, and geochemical proxies capable of capturing demographic patterns, landscape

The Burning Question: Frequencies of Tobacco Consumption in Postmedieval (16th–19th c. ce) England and the Netherlands

International Journal of Osteoarchaeology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The frequency of tobacco use during the postmedieval period is widely underexplored; this has repercussions for our understanding of the intoxicant's health impacts during this time. Our study assesses the frequency rates of tobacco consumption in different social groups in England and the Netherlands, two countries in which tobacco use became
