The earliest writing? Sign use in the seventh millennium BC at Jiahu, Henan Province, China
Early Neolithic graves at Jiahu, Henan Province, China, include tortoise shells which are incised with signs - some of which anticipate later Chinese characters and may be intended as words. Is this the earliest writing? The authors decide rather that the signs in this very early period performed as symbols connected with ritual practice, but they presage a long period of sign use which led eventually to a writing system

The Archaeological Origin and Significance of the Dolphin Vase as Determined by Neutron Activation Analysis
The Dolphin Vase which was excavated from a Middle Kingdom Egyptian tomb at the capital city of Lisht, is so named because of its naturalistic depiction of dolphins. This pottery jug, dated ca. 1750-1700 B. C., epitomizes the network of international relations of a prosperous period: found in Egypt, the dolphins appear to be Minoan in style and yet the vessel shape and manufacture are of Levantine inspiration. Statistical evaluation of the chemic…

Obsidian Industries and Cultural Evolution in the Basin of Mexico Before 500 B.C
Neutron activation analysis of a large sample of obsidian artifacts from Early Horizon and First Intermediate sites in the Basin of Mexico has allowed identification of the geologic sources that were exploited. Combining the geologic source data with obsidian manufacturing data in a diachronic fashion permits one to suggest a series of obsidian utilization stages that correlate with growing cultural complexity
Trace Element Analysis of Obsidian Artifacts from a Classic Maya Residential Group at Nohmul, Belize
Forty-nine obsidian artifacts from a Classic period residential group at Nohmul, northern Belize, have been analyzed by neutron activation analysis. The majority of the samples originated from Ixtepeque, and the remainder from El Chayal. Increasing prominence of the Ixtepeque source from the Late Classic into the Terminal Classic (i.e., before and after ca. A.D. 800) suggests greater use of a coastal distribution route known to have originated in…
Neutron-Activation Study of Figurines, Pottery, and Workshop Materials from the Athenian Agora, Greece
Ceramic specimens from the excavations of the Agora of ancient Athens, Greece, including material from factories, i.e., trial firing pieces, pottery and figurine wasters, datable to the Protogeometric, Subgeometric, and Classical Periods, and stylistically related figurines and pottery were analyzed by neutron activation. The factory material from the three distinct chronological periods separated respectively into three significantly different c…

Activation Analysis Study of Ceramics from the Capacha (Colima) and Openo (Michoacan) Phases of West Mexico
Neutron activation analysis of stylistically similar pottery sherds from the Capacha (Colima) and Opeño (Michoacán) phases gives no evidence for trade or interchange of vessels, either from Openo to Colima, or vice versa, or from a third source to both
