The Wide Lens in Archaeology
This book honors the memory of Brian Hesse, a scholar of Near Eastern archaeology, a writer of alliterative and punned publication titles, and an accomplished amateur photographer. Hesse specialized in zooarchaeology, but he influenced a wider range of excavators and ancient historians with his broad interpretive reach. He spent much of his career analyzing faunal materials from different countries in the Middle East-including Iran, Yemen, and Is…

Where Somalia works
Somalia is not entirely dysfunctional. Indeed, select parts of the Somali economic, social and political landscape work quite well. Ironically, where the country works best also reflects some of what is most wrong
Introduction
A myth can either be a false belief or an idealised conception. This introduction demonstrates why ‘Somalia’ is both

The Rise of Liberal Economics in South Africa
BETWEEN 21 AND 28 MAY 2000, THABO MBEKI paid his first visit to the United States since his election as president of South African. Though he stressed the many positive dimensions of United States-South Africa bilateral relations, he lamented the absence of foreign investment in Africa, where 'wars, military coups, and instability within countries cannot but contribute to the dampening of investors' appetites.'(f.1) In particular, he stressed glo…
The Initial Domestication of Goats ( Capra hircus ) in the Zagros Mountains 10,000 Years Ago
Initial goat domestication is documented in the highlands of western Iran at 10,000 calibrated calendar years ago. Metrical analyses of patterns of sexual dimorphism in modern wild goat skeletons ( Capra hircus aegagrus ) allow sex-specific age curves to be computed for archaeofaunal assemblages. A distinct shift to selective harvesting of subadult males marks initial human management and the transition from hunting to herding of the species. Dir…

Greetings from the New Editors
Biochemical Differentiation of Archaeological Equid Remains
The difficulty of distinguishing different taxa of equids from one another on the basis of skeletal morphology has led to the search for alternative means by which archaeologically recovered bones may be separated according to species or hybrid. The recently evolved biomolecular technique of protein radioimmunoassay (RIA) offers much promise in this regard because it identifies specimens using constituent proteins that differ from species to spec…
Urbanization and the Organization of Animal Production at Tell Jemmeh in the Middle Bronze Age Levant
The Origins of Milk and Wool Production in the Old World
Animal Use at Tel Miqne-Ekron in the Bronze Age and Iron Age
Several shifts in the animal production systems that supported Tel Miqne-Ekron mark the transition between the Bronze Age occupations and the period of Philistine influence that signals the onset of the Iron Age. Pigs and cattle became more important in the economy at the expense of sheep and, in particular, goats. The pattern of change is in the direction of greater emphasis on intensively herded stock and a de-emphasis on extensive forms of man…
Archaic exploitation of small mammals and birds in Northern Chile
The employment in modern archaeological excavations of such intensive collection techniques as sifting the site matrix through fine screens or separating the excavated material in flotation devices results in the recovery of faunal samples that include large fractions of rodent and bird bone. The presence of these taxa, often previously unrecognized as a part of the ancient cultural environment, forces zooarchaeologists to enlarge their interpret…

The 1974 Collection of Faunal Remains from Tell Dan
Faunal Remains from Karataş-Semayük In Southwest Anatolia
Karataş-Semayük is a Bronze Age site near Elmali-Antalya in southwestern Anatolia in the region of ancient Lycia. The chief period of occupation was in Early Bronze II. The Bryn Mawr College excavations there began in 1963 and are directed by Machteld J. Mellink
