Small-seeded grasses in Bronze Age burial contexts
Lady in wool and silk
Wool and silk are regarded as hallmarks of distinctly separate climates and environments, textile and tailoring crafts, social status and fashion regions. Wool was the domestic material for clothing in the Tarim Basin when silk became widely available some 2000 years ago. The multi-layered garment of a young woman discovered by a Sino-Japanese team in 1995 in tomb 95MN1M5 at the Niya site consists of both materials and shows an astonishing variet…
US trade policy and public health
Objective: To investigate the causal link between the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) unrestricted sugar trade agreement signed in 2008 between the USA and Mexico and the diabetes prevalence across all fifty US states. Design: A quasi-experimental research design to investigate the causal effect of the NAFTA unrestricted sugar trade agreement on diabetes prevalence. Our study utilises a comprehensive panel dataset spanning from 2000 t…
Virtual water trade
Virtual water trade (VWT) is the trade of water 'embodied' in a product. This paper explores the extent to which bilateral tariffs, World Trade Organization (WTO), and Regional Trade Agreements (RTA) reshape the trade of water across nations and alleviate water scarcity issues. To achieve this goal, we built a panel database on blue (irrigation water) and green (rainwater) VWT among paired trading countries from 1998 to 2002. Using a standard gra…
New insights on the origin of fired steatite beads in China
Did crops expand in tandem with culinary practices from their region of origin? Evidence from ancient DNA and material culture
Grain-cooking traditions in Neolithic China have been characterised as a 'wet' cuisine based on the boiling and steaming of sticky varieties of cereal. One of these, broomcorn millet, was one of the earliest Chinese crops to move westward into Central Asia and beyond, into regions where grains were typically prepared by grinding and baking. Here, the authors present the genotypes and reconstructed phenotypes of 13 desiccated broomcorn millet samp…

Waistcloths excavated from the Bronze Age Xiaohe cemetery, Lop Nur, Xinjiang
Chronology of the Tianshanbeilu Cemetery in Xinjiang, Northwestern China
Eurasian steppes experienced frequent cultural transfers, human migration, and diffusion of techniques during the Bronze Age. The Hami Oasis is one of the most dynamic areas and has attracted multiple cultural flows. It is an important area that connects various routes of the Tianshan Corridor with the Hexi Corridor in western China. The Tianshanbeilu cemetery is the largest Bronze Age cemetery in Hami. Thirty-seven new radiocarbon dates allowed …
Suggestions on Effective Organization, Mobilization and Management of Non-Governmental Voluntary Organizations from the Practice of the Prevention and Control of the Pandemic
Voluntary service plays an important part in the united fight against the pandemic, which is an essential symbol reflecting the progress of social civilization. Since the reform and opening-up, more freedom has been given in the development of economy, culture and other social resources, and the government’s function is changing from “government-based” to “individual-based”. Citizens are more aware of their role in the society, and the community-…
Inner Asian agro-pastoralism as optimal adaptation strategy of Wupu inhabitants (3000–2400 cal BP) in Xinjiang, China
Exploring ancient socio-economic adaptation is a basic issue of human-environment interaction. Xinjiang in northwest China is a region of high geographic diversity. Past human adaptations to this arid marginal area is a current focus of research interest but still lacks in-depth study. This article presents data from the Wupu Cemetery, located in the extremely arid Hami Basin in the eastern Tianshan Mountains. Archaeobotanical analysis is used to…
A comprehensive investigation of Bronze Age human dietary strategies from different altitudinal environments in the Inner Asian Mountain Corridor
The early presence of crops from East Asia and Southwest Asia in the Inner Asian Mountain Corridor (IAMC) has drawn attention to the Bronze Age mountain archaeology of Central Asia. Namely, the Bronze Age diffusion and utilization of grains in this region remains unknown as contrasts and extremes characterize the territory in environmental terms, especially elevation. Researchers continue to reflect on how, during the second millennium BC, Bronze…

Bioarchaeological analysis of Bronze Age populations in the Xiaohe cemetery using dental non-metric traits
Diverse lifestyles and populations in the Xiaohe culture of the Lop Nur region, Xinjiang, China
Human diet and subsistence strategies from the Late Bronze Age to historic times at Goukou, Xinjiang, NW China
Human diet and subsistence strategies from the Late Bronze Age to historic times (1600 BC–AD 900) are explored for the Goukou site, Xinjiang, using human and other animal stable isotope analyses alongside radiocarbon dating and preliminary archaeobotanical studies. Our results show that during the Late Bronze Age, human bones have mean δ 13 C and δ 15 N values of −14‰ and 12.9‰, respectively; during the Early Iron Age, they have mean δ 13 C and δ…
