    Open Access•Kangkang Li, Xiaoguang Qin et al.•ARTICLE•Quaternary International•2024

  • Multi-proxy investigations of Bronze Age diet and environment in the hyper-arid eastern Tarim Basin (Lop Nur), northwest China

    Open Access•Kangkang Li, Xiaoguang Qin et al.•ARTICLE•Journal of Archaeological Science•2024•Cited by: 2•References: 24

    Humans have a long history of occupying ecologically marginal regions, and the ancient cultural mechanisms of adaptation to these challenging environments remain poorly understood. We examine archaeological deposits from a Bronze Age settlement in the hyper-arid eastern Tarim Basin (Lop Nur), identifying well-preserved plant remains and bone fragments that shed light on the palaeodiet and past environmental setting. We use the newly developed pep…

  • Hydro-climatic aspects of prehistoric human dynamics in the drylands of the Asian interior

    Open Access•Kangkang Li, Xiaoguang Qin et al.•ARTICLE•The Holocene•2022•Cited by: 1•References: 27

    The causes of prehistoric human migrations in the drylands of the Asian interior have long been debated among multidisciplinary scholars. The Bronze Age Xiaohe settlements (ca. 4000–3300 cal yr BP) are situated in the extremely arid Tarim Basin of northwest China and exemplify a societal collapse which included a long-distance movement along river catchments. Here, we present the results of stable carbon isotope values (δ 13 C) of archaeobotanica…

  • Palaeofloods at ancient Loulan, northwest China

    Open Access•Kangkang Li, Xiaoguang Qin et al.•ARTICLE•Quaternary International•2021

  • New radiocarbon dating and archaeological evidence reveal the westward migration of prehistoric humans in the drylands of the Asian interior

    Open Access•Kangkang Li, Xiaoguang Qin et al.•ARTICLE•The Holocene•2021•Cited by: 3•References: 15

    The vast drylands of the Asian interior were an integral part of a transcontinental network connecting east to west, that acted periodically as corridors and routeways for human migration. However, our understanding of the prehistoric human occupation of and interaction with this inhospitable environment has been hindered by a lack of direct evidence from settlements. Here we present the results of the first systematic study of archaeological mat…

  • Oasis landscape of the ancient Loulan on the west bank of Lake Lop Nur, Northwest China, inferred from vegetation utilization for architecture

    Open Access•Kangkang Li, Xiaoguang Qin et al.•ARTICLE•The Holocene•2019•Cited by: 7•References: 11

    The ancient Loulan, situated on the west bank of Lake Lop Nur, Xinjiang, Northwest China, was an important town on the Silk Road connecting China to Europe. However, this once-prosperous kingdom has been a depopulated zone filled with wind-eroded mounds since approximately AD 500–600. A comprehensive understanding of the environmental setting of the flourishing Loulan civilization is a prerequisite for assessing environment–human interaction ther…

  • Hydrological change and human activity during Yuan–Ming Dynasties in the Loulan area, northwestern China

    Open Access•Kangkang Li, Xiaoguang Qin et al.•ARTICLE•The Holocene•2018•Cited by: 1•References: 5

    Human activity on arid lands has been related to oases evolution. The ancient Loulan, an important transportation hub of the ancient Silk Road, developed on an ancient oasis on the west bank of the lake Lop Nur in Xinjiang, China. Previous studies and historical documents suggest that the region has experienced dramatic natural environmental and human activity–related changes over time, transitioning from a particularly prosperous oasis to a depo…
