Semi‐arid river dynamics from the internal geometry of river deposits
This article aims to understand fluvial dynamics based on the internal geometry of fluvial deposits, using radar morphostratigraphy in floodplains, especially those whose genesis is associated with anthropogenic controls, such as upstream of dams.

ABSTRACT In the last three decades, DNA sequencing of ancient animal osteological assemblages has become an important tool complementing standard archaeozoological approaches to reconstruct the history of animal domestication. However, osteological assemblages of key archaeological contexts are not always available or do not necessarily preserve enough

Probabilistic modelling improves relative dating from gene phylogenies
Abstract Establishing the timing of past evolutionary events is a fundamental task in the reconstruction of the history of life. State‐of‐the‐art molecular dating methods generally involve the reconstruction of a species tree from conserved, vertically evolving genes and the assumption of a molecular clock calibrated with the fossil record.

The first stratigraphic column in South Africa, from Hondius (1652), and its modern correlatives
In 1647 the Dutch ship Haarlem, en route from Batavia to the Netherlands Republic, was wrecked in Table Bay. The survivors were encamped over the next year before they were rescued in a fort they constructed called Sandenburgh.

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 ...
