The relationship between form and function of the carnivore mandible

The Anatomical Record, Volume 309, Issue 9, Page 2487-2506, September 2026.
Abstract Dietary morphology diversified extensively in Carnivoraformes (living Carnivora and their stem relatives) during the Cenozoic (the last 66 million years) as they evolved to capture, handle, and process new animal and plant diets. We used 3D geometric morphometrics, mechanical advantage, and finite element analysis to test the evolutionary ...

Ancient Plumage Colour Genetics Reveal Goose Domestication and Hybridization

Animal Genetics, Volume 57, Issue 4, August 2026.
ABSTRACT In archaeological assemblages, differentiating the European domestic goose and its wild progenitor, the greylag goose (Anser anser), has been challenging due to their similar skeletal morphologies. A short region of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) analysed from ancient DNA (aDNA) has been shown to distinguish wild greylags from domestic geese, but ...

Assessing the Vulnerability of an Inuit Archaeological Site in a Changing Periglacial Environment: A Novel Multimethod Geophysical Approach in Arctic Geoarchaeology

Archaeometry, Volume 68, Issue 4, Page 620-632, August 2026.
ABSTRACT With northern regions warming at twice the global rate, assessing the state of archaeological sites in these areas is critically important. In this study, we used a multimethod geophysical approach (ERT, GPR, and EMI) to characterize the current geocryological conditions of an Inuit archaeological site on South Aulatsivik Island (Labrador ...

Altered by Gold: A Comparative Zooarchaeological Analysis of 19th to 20th Century Chinese and British Migrants in Ravenswood, a Northern Queensland Gold Mining Town

Archaeology in Oceania, Volume 61, Issue 2, Page 312-333, July 2026.
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 ...

Understanding Ancient Moose Populations in the Southern Rocky Mountains

Journal of Biogeography, Volume 53, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Moose (Alces alces) are an iconic symbol of contemporary Rocky Mountain ecosystems, and their growing abundance in Colorado and other portions of the Southern Rockies has inspired debate around their regional prehistory prior to their 20th century translocation. The Early Holocene biogeography of moose in North America is poorly characterised,

Stable Carbon and Nitrogen Isotope Analysis Explores Diverse Domestic Goose Management Practices in Medieval and Postmedieval Russia

International Journal of Osteoarchaeology, Volume 36, Issue 3, Page 537-553, May/June 2026.
ABSTRACT Studying goose domestication through archaeological finds has been challenging due to the similar skeletal morphology of the European domestic goose and its wild progenitor, the greylag goose (Anser anser). We analyzed stable carbon (δ13C) and nitrogen (δ15N) isotopes from bone collagen of subfossil domestic and potentially domestic geese to ...
