    Open AccessLaurent Nieblas Ramírez, Veerle Linseele et al.ARTICLEArchaeofauna2023References: 3

    The faunal remains are described from Nkile and Bolondo, two archaeological sites in the equatorial rainforest of the Democratic Republic of Congo. Both river-side settlements, located in the Ruki-Tshuapa basin and dating to between the 14th century to the second half of the 20th century, show a heavy reliance on aquatic food resources.

  • Pastoralism in Africa

    Susanne Berzborn, Christo Botha et al.EDITORBOOKPastoralism in Africa2022Cited by: 1

    Pastoralism has shaped livelihoods and landscapes on the African continent for millennia. Mobile livestock husbandry has generally been portrayed as an economic strategy that successfully met the challenges of low biomass productivity and environmental variability in arid and semi-arid environments. This volume focuses on the emergence, diversity, and inherent dynamics of pastoralism in Africa based on research during a twelve-year period on the …

  • Iron Age plant subsistence in the Inner Congo Basin (DR Congo)

    Open AccessKatharina Neumann, Barbara Eichhorn et al.ARTICLEVegetation History and…2022Cited by: 13References: 13

    Around 400 bc , pottery- and iron-producing populations immigrated into the Inner Congo Basin (ICB) and subsequently spread upstream some major tributaries of the Congo River.

We present an archaeobotanical study of three sites in the ICB covering parts of the Early Iron Age (ca. 400 bc - ad 650) and of the Late Iron Age (LIA) as well as subrecent times (ca. ad 1300–2000). We studie…

  • The Abuse of User a Note on the Egyptian Statuette from Knossos

    Open AccessHans-Peter WotzkaARTICLEThe Annual of the British School…1990

    It is argued that the Egyptian statuette-fragment of User, discovered by Evans early in the 1900 excavations at the Palace of Knossos, was not found in association with datable pottery, and that it should no longer be regarded as one of the key finds for Aegean chronology
