Tracking individual dietary choices in complex past food webs
Reconstructing dietary strategies in past urban environments is challenging because of the complexity of anthropogenic impacts on food webs, in which diverse local and imported resources with variable isotopic compositions limit the interpretive power of conventional bulk-collagen stable isotope analysis. We address this problem using domestic cats as dietary proxies, exploiting their opportunistic foraging behavior to track resource partitioning…
Fish Resource Exploitation at Tanais, Southern Russia, During the Hellenistic and Roman Periods
The ancient town of Tanais was situated on the right bank of the River Don, near its confluence with the Sea of Azov. It was founded in the late first quarter of the third century bc and has been destroyed by the mid‐third century ad . Excavations in trench XXV of western Tanais uncovered remains of a defensive ditch, several Hellenistic pits, and the western part of the town. These structures contained numerous fish remains and fishing artifacts…
Animal remains from Musti, Tunisia, 2019–2023
The city of Musti (today's El Krib, 3618'00"N, 908'00"E, ancient municipium Iulium Aurelium Mustitanum) was located on an important route connecting Carthage-the capital of the Roman province-with important centres located inland, such as Theveste and Sufetula.More information about the city and the research of the Tunisian-Polish expedition is provided in Fetner and Waliszewski (2025).The origins of the town must be linked to the Numidian period…
Ciepłe revisited
New research at Ciepłe, a unique early-medieval centre in northern Poland, reveals a Piast-era complex with three strongholds, elite chamber graves and far-reaching connections. Founded in the late tenth century AD, Ciepłe challenges traditional models of Pomeranian integration, offering fresh perspectives on early medieval state formation, frontier strategy and cross-cultural interactions
Grand funerary stelae (2nd–3rd c. AD) of the microregion of Musti (El Krib, Tunisia)
New research in the microregion of Musti (El Krib) in N Tunisia in 2019–2023 has revealed unpublished 2nd–3rd-century AD funerary monuments featuring rich iconography, including a female figure beside the altar and two pigs. These items and other published epigraphic and anepigraphic monuments from the fertile microregion stand out from other tombstones in Roman Africa. Both the type of monument and its relief decoration distinguish these objects…
A Crocodile Spirit, Crocodile-Faced”
The recent discovery of Nile crocodile remains in the mortuary complexes of two high-ranking courtiers of Nebhepetra Mentuhotep II , located in the early Middle Kingdom necropolis in the valley of North Asasif, opened the way to an exploration of the role of reptile remains in funerary contexts. The skeletal remains, which were not mummified, consisted of fragments of the skull and mandible, loose teeth, and osteoderms. This paper explores the as…
Fishing at the Late Islamic settlement in Kharā'ib al-Dasht, Failaka Island, Kuwait
The Kharā'ib al-Dasht settlement, located on the north-eastern coast of the island of Failaka in Kuwait, has been excavated systematically since 2013 by the Kuwaiti-Polish Archaeological Mission. The investigated area yielded remains dated to the Late Islamic period, from the late seventeenth to the nineteenth century. In the northernmost part of the site, a fish processing area was uncovered, while the remains of residential structures (houses 1…
Isotopic evidence of possible long-distance freshwater fish trade in the 13th to 14th century Chełm, modern Poland
The Middle Ages in the Polish Plain saw an increase in fish consumption as it substituted meat during Lent and other meatless days, approximately one third of the year, due to religious restrictions. Demand for fish stimulated the market. Fish trade and distribution can be easily reconstructed regarding marine species; however, freshwater taxa evade such reconstructions. Modern analytical tools, such as stable isotope analysis, can distinguish fr…
Research and architectural conservation in Marina el-Alamein in 2017 (Polish–Egyptian Conservation Mission
Activities undertaken by the Polish–Egyptian Conservation Mission to Marina el-Alamein in 2017 comprised research and conservation in the public district of the ancient town as well as in private houses. Work focused foremost on research and exhibition of the remains of a street running east of the southeastern corner of the main town square and monuments in the area of the square itself. Research and conservation continued also in the area south…
Animals from the tumuli in el-Detti in Sudan
Excavation of seven tumuli during the 2015 season in a cemetery of Early Makurian date located in the village of el-Detti yielded an extensive animal bone assemblage, altogether 590 bone fragments, accompanying the other finds. Poor preservation resulted in some 10% of the bones not being identified to species. Bone remains were located likewise in chambers, shafts, tunnels and looters’ trenches. They represented the following species: cattle, ov…
Animal remains from the Early Makurian cemetery in el-Zuma (season 2013)
Excavation in 2013 of two tumuli, T.15 and T.21, making up part of the Early Makurian cemetery at El-Zuma, yielded numerous animal bones among other finds. The total from T.15 was a set of 1404 fragmentary bones belonging (with the exception of 653 that could not be identified due to the poor state of preservation) to cattle and ovicaprids. The remains came from the shaft, the burial chamber and two lateral chambers. The number of bones from T.21…
