Hair Degradation Patterns in Aquatic and Soil Environments

Archaeometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Hair is a biological material that can provide information in archaeology and forensics. Previous studies have mainly examined changes occurring post‐mortem. In this study, we focused on hair pulled out ante‐mortem. The aim of the study was to identify patterns in the degradation of hair in water and soil.

The Early Upper Palaeolithic open‐air site of Friedrichsdorf‐Seulberg, Germany, in the context of the northern central European Aurignacian

Boreas, EarlyView.
Our knowledge of the Early Upper Palaeolithic occupation in northern central Europe is very limited, and recent research at the open‐air site of Friedrichsdorf‐Seulberg in Hesse, Germany, provides important new information on the Aurignacian. The site is rather small (26.5 m2) and spatial analysis identified a central hearth with two associated ...

Understanding Time in Taphonomy: A 30-Year Field Study in Wales

, 2021
209 pp.Understanding Time in Taphonomy investigates time as it affects taphonomy. All taphonomic agents operate through time, which may be long or short, so time adds another dimension to taphonomic change.

Morphological study of the supratrochlear foramen in Canis lupus ssp.

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
The supratrochlear foramen (STF) is a common anatomical feature in the humeri of dogs and wolves. This study shows that the STF exhibits a consistent shape and position in dogs and wolves, suggesting a common morphological pattern; however, it was less frequent in smaller dog humeri, and its size correlated with humeral dimensions, suggesting that ...

Heterodonty in the teeth of the turiasaurian sauropod from Angeac‐Charente (Early Cretaceous, southwestern France): Comparison of anatomical and geometric morphometric approaches

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
Turiasaurian teeth from Angeac‐Charente exhibit five dental morphotypes and reveal clear heterodonty and anteroposterior size gradient. Qualitative comparative anatomy quickly and efficiently identifies morphotypes, while 3D geometric morphometrics combined with machine learning refine ambiguous cases, demonstrating that qualitative and quantitative ...

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

Oxford Journal of Archaeology, EarlyView.
SummaryPurple 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 ...
