Assessing the applicability of protein residues in combination with lipid residues to reconstruct Indus foodways from Gujarat
When extracted and analysed in tandem, proteomics and lipid residue analysis can provide high resolution identification of ancient foodstuff. Here, we apply lipid residue and shotgun proteomic analyses to 11 ceramic vessel sherds from the Gujarat, India-based Indus Valley Civilization site of Kotada Bhadli. Our results demonstrate variable success. Lipids were successfully recovered from each ceramic vessel and suggest the presence of dairy and m…
To waste or not to waste
Waste management is paramount to town planning and ancient civilizations across the world have spent resources and mobilized labor for waste disposal and reuse. The study of waste management practices offers a unique window into the daily lives, social organization, and environmental interactions of ancient societies. In the Indus Valley Civilization, known for its urban planning, understanding waste disposal in rural settlements provides crucial…

Associations and Ideologies in the Locations of Urban Craft Production at Harappa, Pakistan (Indus Civilization)
A number of factors can affect spatial associations among production areas for different crafts. Surprisingly, survey and excavation of craft production areas from the Harappan Phase (2600-1900 calibrated B.C.) at the Indus urban site of Harappa have revealed no evidence that production locations were related to control by nonproducers. Instead, the distributional groupings of craft production areas were at least partially related to similarities…

Patterns of population growth in Africa
This paper discusses past present and future trends in Africas population growth stressing problems associated with overpopulation and discussing measures for reducing the population growth rate. Between 1950 and 1980 sudden declines in death rates coupled with high birth rates increased the African population dramatically despite poor economic growth and widespread political instability. The urban population has increased more than 300% since 19…

Effects of the changing structure of agriculture on nonwhite farming in the U.S., the South, and Georgia
This paper examines the impact of selected changes in agriculture on nonwhite farming in America during the period 1954–1978. The issues addressed relate to the decline in the number of farms, the decline in non‐white land ownership, and the general economic situation of nonwhite farm households. Comparisons are made of the plight of nonwhite and white farm(er)s within the context of overall structural changes in American agriculture–economic, so…
