What can lithics tell us about food production during the transition to farming? Exploring harvesting practices and cultural changes during the neolithic in Southwest Asia: a view from Qminas (north‐western Syria)

open access: yesArchaeometry, Volume 68, Issue S3, Page S126-S153, June 2026.
Abstract This study examines the continuity and change in harvesting practices between the Late Pre‐Pottery Neolithic B (LPPNB) and the Early Pottery Neolithic at Qminas, north‐western Levant, through a traceological analysis of flint sickles. By combining qualitative traceological analysis with quantitative functional approaches, we demonstrate that ...

The First Archaeomagnetic Age at Tiwanaku and Implications for Dating Andean Metallurgical Furnaces

open access: yesArchaeometry, Volume 68, Issue 3, Page 317-329, June 2026.
ABSTRACT This paper presents the first archaeomagnetic dating at Tiwanaku (Andean Altiplano). We compared the geomagnetic field values recorded by a metallurgical furnace against an updated SHAWQ2k‐SH global model and a regional intensity curve, both of which include, for the first time, high‐quality intensity data from the Southern Hemisphere.

Assessing Mobility Among Inferred Elites Interred in Crypts 1–3 on Kom H at Tungul (Old Dongola), Sudan

open access: yesArchaeometry, Volume 68, Issue 3, Page 409-420, June 2026.
ABSTRACT As the capital of Makuria, Tungul was a major sociopolitical center within medieval Nubia, being the seat of a bishopric and a monastic community. During the excavation of the Kom H monastery, three burial crypts (Crypts 1–3) were uncovered.

In Search of the Lost Brown Trout (Salmo trutta Complex) Using DNA of Ancient and Modern Samples From the Southern Italian Peninsula

open access: yesEvolutionary Applications, Volume 19, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT The current diversity and distribution of species and populations have been shaped by the major climatic oscillations during the Quaternary. The brown trout (Salmo trutta) is a striking example of the strong effect of past climate changes on the evolutionary history of species, in fact, the alternation of glacial/interglacial cycles has led to

Integrative Advances in Equine Genomics From Reference Assemblies to Evolutionary History and Key Traits

open access: yesEvolutionary Applications, Volume 19, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Horses are major domestic animals and cultural symbols that have accompanied humans for millennia. They underpin transport, agriculture, warfare and sport, and also provide a model for studying domestication, complex traits and adaptive evolution.

Understanding Ancient Moose Populations in the Southern Rocky Mountains

open access: yesJournal of Biogeography, Volume 53, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Moose (Alces alces) are an iconic symbol of contemporary Rocky Mountain ecosystems, and their growing abundance in Colorado and other portions of the Southern Rockies has inspired debate around their regional prehistory prior to their 20th century translocation. The Early Holocene biogeography of moose in North America is poorly characterised,

Vast, overlooked peat, and organic soils in Brazil's Cerrado: carbon storage, dynamics, and stability

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 250, Issue 5, Page 2946-2965, June 2026.
Summary Tropical peatlands are critical for climate mitigation due to their dual role as major carbon sinks and methane sources. In rainforests, high and stable rainfall supports peat accumulation in tropical climates. However, groundwater‐fed peatlands in seasonally dry tropical ecosystems remain poorly understood, despite their potential importance ...
