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)

Archaeometry, EarlyView.
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 ...

Sequence Stratigraphy and Microfacies of the Middle Ordovician Yijianfang Formation in the Tarim Basin, NW China [PDF]

Lithosphere
It is of great significance for further exploration in deep-burial carbonates to clarify the distribution of sedimentary microfacies within the high-precision sequence framework and to analyze how the sequence stratigraphy and lithologic types control ...

Morphometric and Paleobiological Insights Into Pleistocene Sicilian Wolf Populations

Acta Zoologica, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Pleistocene wolves (Canis lupus) from Sicily represent one of the few known insular populations of this species from that time period. Despite their potential relevance for understanding carnivore adaptations in insular contexts, no dedicated study has previously investigated their morphology and evolutionary significance.

The morphosedimentary record of glacial to postglacial environmental changes in West Wiyâshâkimî impact crater lake and adjacent areas, northern Québec, Canada

Boreas, EarlyView.
Crater lakes in core regions of former ice sheets have the potential to preserve long‐term sedimentary archives that are otherwise rare in glaciated landscapes due to pervasive glacial erosion. Lake Wiyâshâkimî, an impact crater lake located in the inner core of the Québec‐Labrador Dome of the Laurentide Ice Sheet, provides a rare example of such a ...

Palaeoenvironmental changes recorded at the Velika Vrbica loess‐palaeosol sequence, Wallachian Basin, during MIS 3–MIS 1

Boreas, EarlyView.
This study presents a detailed investigation of the Velika Vrbica loess‐palaeosol sequence, situated in the Wallachian Basin of northeastern Serbia, with the aim to reconstruct palaeoenvironmental changes spanning Marine Isotope Stages (MIS) 3 to 1. Using optically stimulated luminescence (OSL) dating, low field magnetic susceptibility (χlf), and mass ...

Sedimentology and fluvial styles of the uppermost Cretaceous continental deposits of the Austral-Magallanes Basin, Patagonia, Argentina [PDF]

, 2018
The sedimentary infill of the Austral-Magallanes Basin since the onset of its foreland stage in the Lago Argentino region is dominated by deep-marine and coastal deposits. However, during the Late Cretaceous the basin accumulated a thick and poorly known

Multiple indicators record human adaptations to climatic change during the Middle Holocene at the Wanbei site in the middle and lower Huai River valley, China

Boreas, EarlyView.
The archaeological sediment sequences analysis from the Wanbei site reveals a predominantly warm and humid climate with a brief cooling phase between 5600 and 5400 a BP, during the Middle Holocene in the middle and lower Huai River valley. Despite the cooling trend, rice remained the dominant crop in mixed farming, while the proportion of millet ...
