Ancient west Eurasian ancestry in southern and eastern Africa [PDF]

, 2013
The history of southern Africa involved interactions between indigenous hunter-gatherers and a range of populations that moved into the region. Here we use genome-wide genetic data to show that there are at least two admixture events in the history of ...

Whole‐Genome Sequencing in Galicia Reveals Male‐Biased Pre‐Islamic North African Ancestry, Subtle Population Structure, and Microgeographic Patterns of Disease Risk

The FASEB Journal, Volume 39, Issue 24, 31 December 2025.
Whole genome sequencing of Galicians (GALOMICS; 17.2 M variants) reveals a genetic landscape consistent with broader Iberian patterns, characterized by only five clusters. Phylogenetic analyses indicate recent divergence and mild regional inbreeding.

Levantine Hacksilber and the flow of silver in early Mediterranean commerce

Archaeometry, Volume 67, Issue 6, Page 1547-1564, December 2025.
Abstract This study presents a comprehensive approach to provenancing ancient silver artefacts, introducing a novel algorithm to correct for mass‐dependent isotope fractionation. Applied to a Pb isotope database of 281 Hacksilber samples from southern Levantine hoards (1700–600 BCE) and compared with approximately 7000 galena ores from Spain to Iran ...

Bone Mineral Density of Willow Ptarmigan (Lagopus lagopus) as a Potential Taphonomic Factor in Skeletal Part Attrition

International Journal of Osteoarchaeology, Volume 35, Issue 5, Page 284-294, September/October 2025.
ABSTRACT Agents of taphonomy can bias skeletal parts and the frequency of bones in archaeological sites. An important factor to consider is the possible effect of bone density‐mediated attrition on archaeornithological assemblages. We scanned willow ptarmigan (Lagopus lagopus) specimens using a Lunar iDXA and an enCcore small animal body add‐on to ...

Walking together: artificial and natural selection in traditional husbandry of feral pigs

Journal of Zoology, Volume 325, Issue 4, Page 301-311, April 2025.
The history of Homo sapiens is studded with many events promoting relationships with wild animals changing their evolutionary path or impacting their adaptation. Artificial selection is recognized as the product of planned actions aimed to annex useful species into the anthropic niche.

A proposito di continuità culturale nella Sardegna romana [PDF]
