High resolution stratigraphy across the early–middle Pleistocene boundary from a core of the Kokumoto Formation at Tabuchi, Chiba Prefecture, Japan
Geochemical Analyses and Provenance Determination of White Marble Samples from Churches in North Jordan
Physical, mineralogical, and chemical characteristics of white marble collected from architectural elements of churches located in northern Jordan are used to determine their provenance and shed light on the region's marble trade during the late classical period. The samples were examined macroscopically and were subjected to a series of analytical techniques, including optical microscopy, X-ray diffraction, and mass spectrometry. In addition, a …
C and Marine Reservoir Effect in Archaeological Samples from the Northeast Gulf of California
Previous studies of live-collected pre-weapons testing mollusk shells in the northern Gulf of California have demonstrated that the local radiocarbon reservoir effect (ΔR) is large and highly variable. To test the validity of this observation for paired charcoal and shell samples from archaeological contexts, we dated samples from four shell midden locations and six midden layers from the eastern shoreline of the Gulf of California near Puerto Pe…
Coastal Adaptations During the Archaic Period in the Northern Sea of Cortez, Mexico
This article integrates geological, biological, ethnographic, and archaeological lines of evidence to reconstruct fishing patterns between approximately 4100 and 500 BC in the northern Gulf of California. In addition to shell collecting along the coast, several species of fish were captured, mainly endemic sciaenids of the upper gulf. Our study focuses on the northern Sonoran coast where recent archaeological studies have discovered scores of oto…
Identifying the Origin of Southwestern Shell: A Geochemical Application to Mogollon Rim Archaeomolluscs
Archaeological marine shell artifacts moving over long distances may reveal the remnants of social networks, social currency, and the nuances of exchange. For the southwestern United States and northern Mexico, potential sources of marine shell are predominantly the Gulf of California and Pacific Ocean. There exists some taxonomic overlap between molluscan communities of these regions and the Gulf of California, necessitating non-biogeographic me…
Archaic Period Shell Middens, Sea-Level Fluctuation, and Seasonality: Archaeology along the Northern Gulf of California Littoral, Sonora, Mexico
Five recent radiocarbon assays on wood charcoal within archaeological sites from the Puerto Peñasco area, Sonora, Mexico indicate use of the marine resources of the northern Gulf of California area during the Middle Archaic through the Late Archaic periods, ca. 3800 B.C.-A.D. 100. The archaeological shell middens of the region are generally thought of as remains associated with Ceramic period Hohokam marine shell collecting forays with there bein…
Condemned to metallum? The origin and role of 4th–6th century A.D. Phaeno mining campresidents using multiple chemical techniques
An isotopic perspective on the transport of Byzantine mining camp laborers into southwestern Jordan
The Byzantine Empire managed a complex administrative network that controlled the mining and processing of natural resources from within its boundaries. Scholars relying upon archeological and textual evidence debate the level of imperial involvement in these ventures, particularly in the provinces. Ancient sources note that many mining camps, for instance, purportedly contained criminal laborers and elite administrators transported from distant …
Observations on the Archaeology, Paleoenvironment, and Geomorphology of the Puerto Peñasco Area of Northern Sonora, Mexico
Recent observations and archival research on the archaeology of the Puerto Peñasco area at the northern end of the Gulf of California, Sonora, Mexico, have provided additional insights into the prehistory of the region. The northern Gulf of California has long been recognized as the source of raw marine shell used in the production of shell ornaments by the Hohokam of southern and central Arizona. The most obvious archaeological manifestations in…
Seasonal Variations in Peruvian Marine Reservoir Age from Pre-Bomb Argopecten Purpuratus Shell Carbonate
Marine upwelling along coastal Peru can be intense and variable, making radiocarbon dating marine and coastal systems complex. Historical and proxy records of upwelling along coastal Peru are few, and long-lived species such as corals do not grow in the cold coastal waters. Mollusk shell carbonate, however, can record both the magnitude of the local marine reservoir correction, ΔR, and of seasonal oscillations in the ventilation age of coastal wa…
Glacial Meltwater in Lake Huron during Early Postglacial Time as Inferred from Single-Valve Analysis of Oxygen Isotopes in Ostracodes
δ 18 O measurements of benthic ostracodes are used to reconstruct the δ 18 O history of Lake Huron and Georgian Bay water between 10,600 and 7600 14 C yr B.P. This δ 18 O record was calibrated using a comparison of the δ 18 O values of modern ostracodes and Lake Huron water, where a fractionation of 1.0358 was measured between the oxygen isotope ratios of the most isotopically positive ostracode Candona subtriangulata and lake water. The most pos…
