Bringing Home the Bacon: Carcass transport, butchery, and food preparation decisions at PPNA Körtiktepe, upper Mesopotamia
Faunal remains from archaeological sites dating to the Pre-Pottery Neolithic (PPN) are usually interpreted with an emphasis on early animal management strategy, domestication, environmental change, or ritual – particularly including feasting. In general, however, little attention has been paid to questions of methods of processing animal carcasses, including initial dismemberment, secondary butchery, and preparation for consumption. In hunting co…
Wrestling Camels and Camel–Human Bond Among Sedentary Yörüks of Anatolia (Türkiye)
Based on ethnographic fieldwork conducted between 2013 and 2025, this study examined contemporary camel–human relationships among sedentary Yörük communities in western and southern Anatolia (Türkiye). While camels once served essential economic roles in transport and transhumance during nomadic life, Yörüks today raise and maintain camels primarily to preserve family heritage and enhance social prestige. Camel wrestling shows have become a centr…
Güneydoğu Anadolu Neolitik Dönem Küçük Memeli Hayvanlar
Neolitik Dönem boyunca büyük memeli hayvanlar, beslenme ve ekonomiye önemli ölçüde katkıda bulunmuştur. Bununla birlikte, küçük memeli hayvanlar da besin ekonomisi ve sembolik-ritüel faaliyetlerde önemli bir rol oynamıştır. Shannon–Weaver Çeşitlilik İndeksi (H’) kullanılarak bu çalışmada, Güneydoğu Anadolu Neolitik Dönemi’ne ait küçük memeli faunasına ilişkin veriler, niceliksel ve niteliksel olarak incelenerek yeni bir model oluşturulmuştur. Hem…
Camels and the Last Nomadic Pastoralists of Anatolia (Türkiye)
A heart-shaped bone artifact from Körtiktepe
Along with the emergence of sedentary life, the Pre-Pottery Neolithic (PPN) settlements brought revolutionary changes in production of material cultures as well as cultic and ritual activities, which are often argued to be associated with new waves of interactions between humans and their natural world. Körtiktepe of southeastern Turkey yielded by far the richest PPN assemblage in the world, standing among the very few earliest cultural and produ…

Adaptions in subsistence strategy to environment changes across the Younger Dryas - Early Holocene boundary at Körtiktepe, Southeastern Turkey
The site of Körtiktepe in southeastern Turkey is one of few sites in the Upper Mesopotamia basin that attests continuous, permanent occupation across the boundary from end of the colder, drier Younger Dryas (YD) into the comparatively wetter and warmer Early Holocene (EH). This allows for the study of the degree of environmental change experienced on a local level over this boundary as well as for the study of the adaptations that the occupants o…
Length estimation of Atlantic bluefin tuna ( Thunnus thynnus ) using vertebrae
Atlantic bluefin tuna ( Thunnus thynnus ; BFT) is a large (up to 3.3 m in length) pelagic predator which has been exploited throughout the eastern Atlantic and Mediterranean since prehistoric times, as attested by its archeological remains. One key insight derivable from these remains is body size, which can indicate past fishing abilities, the impact of fishing, and past migration behavior. Despite this, there exists no reliable method to estima…
Local trend of symbolism at the dawn of the Neolithic: The painted bone plaquettes from PPNA Körtiktepe, Southeast Turkey
Inhabiting the World's Largest Tropical Delta: Understanding Human-Environment Relationship from a Century-Long Archaeological Quest in Bangladesh
Due to the exceptionally rich tropical resource, the Lower Ganges-Brahmaputra basins have attracted people of diverse ethnic and geographical backgrounds for millennia. So far 524 protected sites in present Bangladesh indicate the busy human occupation in the world's largest delta at least from 5th century BCE. Although systematic archaeology began in the 1870s there is still a paucity of knowledge about past human land use and livelihood strateg…
