A reevaluation of bird taxonomic identifications at Contact‐ and historic‐era North American sites
Domestic chickens ( Gallus domesticus ) and turkeys ( Meleagris gallopavo ) are identified more frequently than other bird species in bone assemblages from historic sites in North America. Recent studies on the effectiveness of metric data for identification of galliform bones found high degrees of similarity in size and morphology between wild game birds (e.g., grouse and ptarmigan) and multiple domestic or introduced species (e.g., chicken and …
New AMS Dates for Verteba Cave and Stable Isotope Evidence of Human Diet in The Holocene Forest-Steppe, Ukraine
Excavations at several locations in Verteba Cave have uncovered a large amount of human skeletal remains in association with faunal bones and Tripolye material culture. We aim to establish radiocarbon ( 14 C) dates for eight sites and to evaluate whether these deposits are singular events, or slow accumulations over time. 14 C measurements, along with stable carbon and nitrogen isotope data from human and faunal remains, were collected from 18 sp…
Morphological integration affects the evolution of midline cranial base, lateral basicranium, and face across primates
OBJECTIVES: The basicranium and face are two integrated bony structures displaying great morphological diversity across primates. Previous studies in hominids determined that the basicranium is composed of two independent modules: the midline basicranium, mostly influenced by brain size, and the lateral basicranium, predominantly associated with facial shape. To better assess how morphological integration impacts the evolution of primate cranial …

Can metric data be an effective tool for galliform skull identification in archaeological contexts
Isotopic evidence for broad diet including anadromous fish during the mid-Holocene in northeastern North America
The Biological Implications of the Transition to Agriculture in Ukraine
The Tripolye were the first archaeo-logical culture in Ukraine to cultivate domesticat-ed cereals, practice animal husbandry, and establish large settlements with high population densities. This cultural adaptation was much different than that of mobile hunter-fisher-gatherers of the Ukrainian Mesolithic/Neolithic, and likely resulted in different outcomes for human health. This study compares the rates of enamel hypoplasias in a Tripolye skeleta…

Violence at Verteba Cave, Ukraine
Many researchers have pointed to the huge "megasites" and construction of fortifications as evidence of intergroup hostilities among the Late Neolithic Tripolye archaeological culture. However, to date, very few skeletal remains have been analysed for the types of traumatic injury that serve as direct evidence for violent conflict. In this study, we examine trauma on human remains from the Tripolye site of Verteba Cave in western Ukraine. The rem…
Dietary Stress and Animal Resource Use at the Postclassic Maya city, Mayapán (Mexico)
Environmental changes resulting in drought and reductions in the availability of animal resources during the Late Classic Maya have been linked with the Maya ‘collapse’. Decreases in availability of dietary staples such as artiodactyls, and particularly white-tailed deer, during the Late Classic period would have placed food stress on populations during later periods. To test this hypothesis, here bone breakage patterns are examined at the Postcl…
Dental Health and the Transition to Agriculture in Prehistoric Ukraine
Bioarchaeological studies have found that, in general, the adoption of agriculture is associated with deteriorating oral health, most frequently manifested as an increase in the prevalence of dental caries. However, compared to other regions of the world, bioarchaeological studies focusing on prehistoric Europe have produced more variable results, with different populations experiencing deteriorations, improvements, and stasis in oral health. Thi…
