Virtual Sea-Drifting Experiments between the Island of Cyprus and the Surrounding Mainland in the Early Prehistoric Eastern Mediterranean
Seaborne movement underpins frontier research in prehistoric archaeology, including water-crossings in the context of human dispersals, and island colonisation. Yet, it also controls the degree of interaction between locations, which in turn is essential for investigating the properties of maritime networks. The onset of the Holocene (circa 12,000 years ago) is a critical period for understanding the origins of early visitors/inhabitants to the i…
To the exclusion of all others? DNA profile and transfer mechanics— R v Jones (William Francis ) [2020] Ewca Crim 1021 (03 Aug 2020)
This case note deals with doctrinal and inferential issues around the use of DNA in the criminal process, in particular DNA alone, as a case to answer
Early Neolithic chert variability in central Cyprus
Exacerbating injustice
The Supreme Court, post-conviction disclosure and ‘fishing expeditions’
Of Weighty Reasons and Indiscriminate Blankets
This article explores the fallout from the decision in S & M arper v. UK (2008), where the E uropean C ourt of H uman R ights ( ECtHR ), in ruling that the UK 's DNA retention regime breached human rights, was ‘struck by the blanket and indiscriminate nature’ of the power to retain DNA and stated that the UK government required ‘weighty reasons’ to justify the retention of DNA in cases of unconvicted individuals. Since the ruling, successive UK g…
The earlier Neolithic in Cyprus
Intensive survey and initial excavations have succeeded in pushing back the Neolithic human occupation of Cyprus to the earlier ninth millennium cal BC. Contemporary with PPNA in the Levant, and with signs of belonging to the same intellectual community, these were not marginalised foragers, but participants in the developing Neolithic project, which was therefore effectively networked over the sea
Excavations at Politiko Kokkinorotsos . A Chalcolithic Hunting Station in Cyprus
Recent excavations at a small Chalcolithic site in central Cyprus show that it was occupied about 2880–2670 cal BC. Fallow deer form the major component of the substantial faunal sample: both these and other animals were hunted. The chipped stone, too, fits with a model of intensive meat exploitation. The lack of formal architecture supports the general model of a seasonally or intermittently used hunters' village. Plant remains and a limited arr…
Survey at Arediou "Vouppes" (Lithosouros), a Late Bronze Age Agricultural Settlement on Cyprus
A Late Bronze Age settlement was identified at Arediou "Vouppes," Cyprus, in 1993. This has been interpreted as an agricultural support village and, as such, forms a lynchpin in the development of political-economic models based on the island's settlement hierarchy. This paper examines the material culture assemblage recovered during intensive survey in 2004, in particular the ceramics and lithics, with a view to testing the interpretation of the…

Neolithic Dispersals from the Levantine Corridor
The earliest agro-pastoralists of the Near East are generally held to have emerged in a narrow Levantine Corridor. Agricultural life initially spread from this discrete core zone in the Early Pre-Pottery Neolithic B to adjacent inland regions, only reaching the Mediterranean coast of Syria by the Late Pre-Pottery Neolithic B. Recent discoveries on Cyprus, far to the west of the core zone, prompt re-configuration of several elements of this model.…
Agro-pastoralist colonization of Cyprus in the 10th millennium BP
Unexpectedly early evidence for the precocious spread of farming has recently emerged in Cyprus. It is argued that the transmission occurred as a result of migration related to ecosystem stress in the Levant. So strong are the connections of the colonists with the mainland that we suggest the term Cypro-Pre-Pottery Neolithic B to describe what has hitherto been a major lacuna in Cypriot prehistory. Consistent dates from key sites and the evolutio…

Preliminary Report on the Chipped Stone Assemblage from the Aceramic Neolithic Site of Ayia Varvara Asprokremnos, Cyprus.
The chipped stone assemblage from the previously unpublished site of Ayia Varvara Asprokremnos demonstrates both similarities and differences in the proportions of various tool and core types from other Aceramic Neolithic assemblages in Cyprus. These differences suggest that our interpretations of the Aceramic Neolithic period in Cyprus need to be expanded in order to account for diversity exhibited by the chipped stone industry, which until rece…
A Report on the Chipped Stone Assemblage from Tell Iktanu, Jordan
The chipped stone assemblage from the site of Tell Iktanu is described below. The assemblage, of the Early Bronze IB, Intennediate Early Bronze/Middle Bronze and Iron Age II, is largely represented by a flake-based core technology used for the production of a variety of retouched flake tool types. Canaanean blades and tabular scrapers represent specialized aspects of the industry which exhibit distinct patterns clearly differentiating the Early B…
Preliminary Report of the 1989 Excavations at Site 27 of the Burqu c /Ruweishid Project
The following excavation report represents the first in a series of detailed reports in which the variation evident for the Late Neolithic occupation at Qasr Burquc will be investigated. Site 27, excavated by the Burquc/Ruweishid Project during the 1989 field season, provides clearly stratified detail of the Late Neolithic occupation at the lake. Five phases differentiated for the site suggest that the Late Neolithic period was long and culturall…
