  • Een shell midden in Swifterkamp? Verslag van een archeologisch experiment

    Open AccessJ P Kleijne, Hester Kamstra et al.ARTICLEPaleo-aktueel2024

    A shell midden in Swifterkamp? Report of an archaeological experiment. In 2021, we conducted an experiment into shell midden formation processes. We boiled and roasted shellfish, created a midden, and trampled specific parts of it. This report describes the choices we made in the process, the materials we used, the unexpected first results, and some further considerations. We will not delve deeper into the scientific nature of the endeavour, as t…

  • No time to waste. Evidence for communal waste management among hunter-gatherer-fishers at Riņņukalns, Latvia (5400-3200 BC)

    Open AccessJ P Kleijne, Valdis Bērziņš et al.ARTICLEQuaternary Environments and Humans2024

    This study discusses waste management by mid-Holocene hunter-gatherer-fisher communities at Riņņukalns, on the Salaca river in Latvia. It combines microscopic analyses with geochemistry and radiocarbon dating. We observe natural landscape changes and human responses, with Mesolithic and earlier Middle Neolithic occupation on the backswamp. During the later Middle Neolithic, we see a pattern of selective deposition of waste categories (food waste,…

  • The times they are a-changing. Reconsidering the occupation history and character of a 3rd millennium BCE settlement in the Lower Rhine Area

    Open AccessJ P Kleijne, D J HuismanARTICLEJournal of Archaeological Science…2023References: 9

    A re-analysis of soil micromorphology samples and radiocarbon dates was undertaken at the Middle to Late Neolithic settlement of N11, Hazerswoude-Rijndijk, in the Netherlands. The site, located on crevasse deposits of the river Rhine, was previously dated between 3200 and 2500 BCE. Our re-analysis allows us to place the occupation firmly in the 3rd millennium BCE, which holds implications for our understanding of a pivotal transformation process …

  • A new perspective on Tegelbarg

    Open AccessJ P Kleijne, D J HuismanARTICLEArchaeological and Anthropological…2023Cited by: 3References: 57

    The site of Tegelbarg can be described as a Late Neolithic stratified occupation deposit, including a shell midden, situated on the Baltic coast in Northern Europe. Spatially and temporally separated from its famous Danish counterparts, it presents an intriguing anomaly in a full-fledged agricultural society. We present a combined perspective on the chronology and the character of this occupation using archaeological soil micromorphology and the …

  • Late Neolithic and Chalcolithic maritime resilience? The 4.2 ka BP event and its implications for environments and societies in Northwest Europe

    Open AccessJ P Kleijne, Mara Weinelt et al.ARTICLEEnvironmental Research Letters2020

    This paper deals with prehistoric communities at the end of the 3rd millennium BC in Northwest Europe in relation to the 4.2 ka BP climatic event. In particular, the question of the resilience of these communities to climatic change will be studied here by comparing various climatic records and analysing specific archaeological parameters for social and cultural change. These parameters include the duration and intensity of settlement occupation,…
