The local forms of Zootecus (Gastropoda: Pulmonata: Subulinidae) of Pakistan: an archaeomalacological case study

open access: yesNatural History Sciences, 2017
In the past, several Asian subspecies and local forms of Zootecus have been described and some of them can be linked back to Zootecus insularis. Their collecting sites, shell shapes, dimensions and number of whorls have been listed in the past. In recent

A revised classification system of the marronoid clade of spiders (Araneae), based on dense sampling phylogenomics and comparative morphology

open access: yesCladistics, EarlyView.
Abstract The marronoid clade is a globally distributed, ecologically diverse group of spiders. It is an important faunal component in both natural and synanthropic environments, and even found in aquatic and extreme habitats such as desert salt flats. The systematics of the marronoid clade has been notoriously unstable due to the widespread character ...

Notes on a ‶shell mound″ at Tongue Ferry, Sutherland

open access: yesTransactions of the Edinburgh Geological Society, 1893
It will be readily admitted by those who have been following the general results of archaeological research, that the investigation of those shell mounds left by the hand of man in Scotland has not led to such important conclusions as the study of similar deposits in Denmark.

Evolution, Routing and Reservoir Characteristics of Submarine Channels in a Structurally Deforming Slope Setting: Deep‐Water Joint Development Zone of Nigeria and São Tomé and Príncipe

open access: yesJournal of Petroleum Geology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Deep‐water slope channels and associated facies are a major part of clastic sediment dispersal system extending from the shelf‐edge to the abyssal plain. The toe‐thrust area of the deep‐water Niger Delta enables the analysis of these channels and their interaction with evolving fault‐controlled sea‐floor topography to be determined ...

MINDING THE GAP: A METHODOLOGICAL AND CHRONOLOGICAL REASSESSMENT OF EASTERN MEDITERRANEAN PURPLE‐DYE PRODUCTION IN THE BRONZE AND IRON AGES

open access: yesOxford Journal of Archaeology, EarlyView.
Summary Purple dye was an iconic status symbol in the ancient Mediterranean, yet tracing the expansion and shift of production from the Aegean to the Levant encounters substantial methodological difficulties. Using Tel Shiqmona – a unique industrial centre with a continuous Iron Age sequence – as an archaeological benchmark, this study defines detailed

Were burnt moulds derived from prehistoric copper production activities? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Burnt mounds and copper arrived on the scene in the British Isles at about the same time, at the beginning of the Neolithic to Bronze Age transition in the mid-3(^rd) millennium BC.

Cribra orbitalia and Porotic hyperostosis on bone remains of the Bronze Age population from the Lower Volga region (search for the proliferation causes) [PDF]

open access: yesВестник археологии, антропологии и этнографии
This study is devoted to defining the occurrence frequency of Cribra orbitalia and Porotic hyperostosis signs based on the data obtained and establishing the reasons for the spread of these pathological conditions in the study groups.

Contourite erosional and depositional features of the Maastrichtian chalk on Jasmund peninsula (Rügen island, NE Germany)

open access: yesSedimentology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Seismic‐scale features such as deeply incised submarine valleys and mounded drifts together with ichnological features indicative of discontinuous sedimentation and erosional episodes have recently been documented from the Upper Cretaceous chalk in the southern Baltic Sea area.

Downcurrent variation in submarine channel‐fill architecture from the shelf to upper slope

open access: yesSedimentology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The transition between the shelf and the upper slope is often considered an area of sediment bypass, where steeper gradients increase flow velocities and maintain particles in suspension. In addition to transferring sediments into deeper basins, upper‐slope areas can also host channelised submarine deposits.

Shell mounds on the west side of the large inlet in Janaba West (Transect 1).

open access: yes, 2019
Photograph taken facing North-West, the low cliff at the edge of the coral platform on which the mounds sit is clearly visible on the left and represents the palaeoshoreline contemporaneous with the accumulation of the shell mounds.
