Dental anomalies in Pleistocene African hippopotamuses from Olduvai Bed II
Abstract Hippopotamuses are key palaeoenvironmental indicators in African Pleistocene ecosystems due to their ecological dependence on permanent water bodies and their frequent representation in the fossil record. This study examines dental anomalies in Hippopotamus cf. gorgops from several localities in Bed II of Olduvai Gorge (Tanzania), dated to ca.

ABSTRACT Gold discoveries transformed the 19th century British colony of Queensland, Australia, driving migration, a second wave of pastoral expansion northwards, and an increasingly diverse population. This study presents a comparative and contextual zooarchaeological analysis of British and southern Chinese food waste—globally significant migrant ...
