Ostrich eggshell bead attributes and the hunter/herder/pastoralist debate in southern Africa
In southern Africa the size of ostrich eggshell beads has been used to attempt to separate hunter-gatherer from pastoralist sites since the 1980s. This paper offers a revival of the debate with individual bead and aperture diameter measurements and the presentation of a new bead metric — the cup percentage — and a larger spatio-temporal dataset. Preliminary results from late Pleistocene and Holocene Western Cape sites in South Africa show a chang…
Ecosystem engineering in the Quaternary of the West Coast of South Africa
Despite advances in our understanding of the geographic and temporal scope of the Paleolithic record, we know remarkably little about the evolutionary and ecological consequences of changes in human behavior. Recent inquiries suggest that human evolution reflects a long history of interconnections between the behavior of humans and their surrounding ecosystems (e.g., niche construction). Developing expectations to identify such phenomena is remar…
