Living by the lake: Plant food diversity in a prehistoric lake‐dwelling community in the Republic of North Macedonia

Archaeometry, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper explores the relationship between wetland ecosystems and prehistoric lakeshore settlements within the Lake Ohrid basin (a biodiversity hotspot) by considering plant food systems at Ploča Mičov Grad, North Macedonia. The mid‐fifth millennium (c.4555–4373 to 4437–4241 cal BCE) waterlogged assemblage contained a diverse spectrum of ...

Integrating Sr isotopes, microchemistry, and genetics to reconstruct Salmonidae species and life history

Archaeometry, EarlyView.
Abstract Recent approaches to fisheries research emphasize the importance of the coproduction of knowledge in building resilient and culturally mindful fisheries management frameworks. Despite widespread recognition of the need for Indigenous knowledge and historical reference points as baseline data, archaeological data are rarely included in ...

Soil wetting and drying processes influence stone artefact distribution in clay‐rich soils: A case study from Middle Gidley Island in Murujuga, northwest Western Australia

Archaeometry, EarlyView.
Abstract Soils that contain swelling clay minerals (e.g., montmorillonite) expand and contract during wetting and drying, causing movement within the soil profile. This process, known as argilliturbation, can alter artefact distributions, destroy stratigraphy and complicate the interpretation of archaeological deposits.

Ring‐Width Dendrochronology, Isotopic Dendrochronology and Radiocarbon Dating of Timbers From the Spire Scaffold of Salisbury Cathedral, Wiltshire, England

Archaeometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Ten timbers from the spire scaffold of Salisbury Cathedral were dated using a combination of ring‐width dendrochronology, stable oxygen isotopic dendrochronology and radiocarbon dating. Seven timbers were coeval and assigned a combined empirical felling date range of 1352–1378, which was further refined to 1351–1359 (OxCal 95.4%).

Dealing With Inbuilt Age: A Bayesian Approach to Radiocarbon Dating of Rice, Bamboo and Charcoal From Non Ban Jak, Thailand

Archaeometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT New radiocarbon determinations from rice grains and bamboo have been obtained from Non Ban Jak, Northeast Thailand. These, along with charcoal, date a late Iron Age building sequence. The results come from short‐lived species and charcoal with potential inbuilt age. We built a series of Bayesian models to obtain a reliable chronology.

Ramsey and Gallai-Ramsey numbers for forests

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory
Summary: Given two non-empty graphs \(G,H\) and a positive integer \(k\), the Gallai-Ramsey number \(\operatorname{gr}_k(G:H)\) is defined as the minimum integer \(N\) such that for all \(n\geq N\), every \(k\)-edge-coloring of \(K_n\) contains either a rainbow copy of \(G\) or a monochromatic copy of \(H\).

Determinants of Amount Raised in Equity Crowdfunding Campaigns: An Application of Truncated Regression

Bulletin of Economic Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Secondary‐market data on 1189 crowdfunding campaigns, extracted from the leading UK equity crowdfunding platform Seedrs, is used to identify the determinants of amount invested. A key feature of the dataset is that only successful campaigns are observed.

Beyond Sporting Talent: Other Determinants of Football Clubs’ Wage Bills

Bulletin of Economic Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article delves into the understanding of how football clubs determine wage bills to compensate talent. Using data from first‐division teams in elite European leagues, we estimate wage models based on indicators of sporting performance, “Elo ratings” as a proxy for clubs’ historical achievements and brand strength, and “media visibility ...

Stratigraphic evidence for modern‐like glacier extents in south‐central Alaska within the last glacial period (MIS 3)

Boreas, EarlyView.
The last (Wisconsinan) glacial period was punctuated in North America by two glacial maxima, known as the Early and Late Wisconsinan glaciations. In Alaska, these maxima and their subsequent retreats have been the object of dating efforts to reconstruct local climatic events and compare them to global trends.

Advanced Ramsey Dimensional Analysis

Dynamics
We propose a Ramsey approach to the dimensional analysis of physical systems, which complements the seminal Buckingham theorem. Dimensionless constants describing a given physical system are represented as vertices of a graph, referred to as a dimensions
