Right to replicate? A preliminary comparative experimental approach to the use of replicas in taphonomic analyses using the scanning electron microscope
This paper presents the preliminary results of an experimental project aiming at the optimization of the procedures for observing and identifying archaeological bone modifications by means of microscope analysis.The protocol includes different phases: the first one starts with the experimental production of traces on hard animal tissues (bones, teeth, ivory, antler, etc.) using different kinds of tools made of various materials (flint, obsidian, …
Social Dynamics and Resource Management Strategies in Copper Age Italy
Although the amount of data on the Italian Copper Age has increased significantly in the last decades, little is known about the relationship between humans and the environment. Material culture suggests the occurrence of significant social interactions throughout the Italian Peninsula, while the funerary practices indicate that Copper Age groups were strongly rooted in their territories. Here, we attempt to define the relations within Copper Age…
Bird exploitation from the epigravettian site of Riparo Dalmeri (Trento, Italy)
Macromammal and bird assemblages across the late Middle to Upper Palaeolithic transition in Italy
Events, Social Memories, and Community in a Final Bronze Age Building’s Biography at Sant’Aniceto, Calabria, Italy
Archaeologists investigating Middle Bronze to Early Iron Age periods (1600–900 b.c.) in southern Italy often explore linkages between emerging inequality and foreign trade connections, establishing a coupled trope of “change emerges from external forces” and “waiting for civilization to arrive”. Based on excavations at the Recent/Final Bronze and Early Iron Ages (RFBA/IA, 1200–900 b.c.) site of Sant’Aniceto in Calabria, we offer an alternative na…
Archeozoology and taphonomy of bird remains from Grotta di Castelcivita (Salerno, Italy) and clues for human-bird interactions
Late neandertals and the exploitation of small mammals in northern Italy
This work reviews the anthropogenic exploitation of small mammals during a crucial time span for the reconstruction of human behavior at the dawn of the Middle - Upper Palaeolithic boundary in the Northern Mediterranean region. Data are sourced from faunal assemblages recovered in the final Mousterian levels of Grotta di Fumane (A5-A6 complex) and the Late Mousterian levels of Riparo Tagliente (levels 35 and 36) and Grotta di San Bernardino (unit…
Bears and humans, a Neanderthal tale. Reconstructing uncommon behaviors from zooarchaeological evidence in southern Europe
Seasonality and function of Mesolithic valley-bottom sites

Neanderthal scraping and manual handling of raptors wing bones
The wolf from Grotta Romanelli (Apulia, Italy) and its implications in the evolutionary history of Canis lupus in the Late Pleistocene of Southern Italy

The Role of Birds in the Settlement of Shahr-i Sokhta (Sistan, Iran) During the 3rd Millennium BC
Archaeological excavations at the site of Shahr-i Sokhta yielded many bird remains. The excellent state of preservation allowed for the identification of 2875 specimens attributed to 43 different species. The avifaunal assemblage is mainly characterized by aquatic species, such as the Eurasian coot (Fulica atra), representing 60% of the identified remains, and the Anseriformes. The presence of cinereous vulture (Aegypius monachus), see-see partri…
Animal Exploitation Strategies during the Uluzzian at Grotta di Fumane (Verona, Italy)
New insights into the Early Neolithic economy and management of animals in Southern and Central Europe revealed using lipid residue analyses of pottery vessels
Analyses of organic residues preserved in ceramic potsherds enable the identification of foodstuffs processed in archaeological vessels. Differences in the isotopic composition of fatty acids allow differentiation of non-ruminant and ruminant fats, as well as adipose and dairy fats. This paper investigates the trends in milk use in areas where sheep and goats are dominant in the faunal assemblage and in some sites from the Linearbandkeramik cultu…
Archaeozoological evidence of subsistence strategies during the Gravettian at Riparo Mochi (Balzi Rossi, Ventimiglia, Imperia - Italy)
Ancient DNA, pig domestication, and the spread of the Neolithic into Europe
The Neolithic Revolution began 11,000 years ago in the Near East and preceded a westward migration into Europe of distinctive cultural groups and their agricultural economies, including domesticated animals and plants. Despite decades of research, no consensus has emerged about the extent of admixture between the indigenous and exotic populations or the degree to which the appearance of specific components of the “Neolithic cultural package” in E…
Marine Resources in the Mesolithic and Neolithic at the Grotta Dell’uzzo (Sicily)
Oxygen isotopes in shell carbonate samples from the marine rocky‐shore intertidal gastropod Monodonta turbinata (Born) are investigated in both modern analogue specimens and in archaeological specimens from the Grotta dell’Uzzo (Sicily). Variations in shell edge values of δ 18 O in living specimens collected monthly over two years are closely correlated with monthly seawater temperatures measured at the time of collection, showing that the specie…
Pig Hunting and Husbandry in Prehistoric Italy
In this article the evidence of pig exploitation in the prehistory of the Italian peninsula and Sicily is presented. Though some differences in pig morphology seem to have existed between different parts of the country, a broadly consistent diachronic pattern of change has emerged. In the Mesolithic fairly small wild boars (with bones quite large in relation to the teeth) lived in Italy. For most of the Neolithic pigs of a similar size and shape …
Ecology and subsistence strategies in the eastern Italian Alps during the Middle Palaeolithic
Italy is very rich in Middle Palaeolithic sites, and the Veneto region ranges among those with the best archaeozoological information. Most of the Middle Palaeolithic sites are located in caves and rock shelters situated at the mouths of the Alpine valleys, in the piedmont slopes. The two sites that offer the best archaeozoological data are Grotta di Fumane and Grotta S. Bernardino. Grotta S. Bernardino was occupied alternately by humans and carn…
Butchering and cooking of birds in the palaeolithic site of Grotta Romanelli (Italy)
Grotta Romanelli is one of the most important sites of the Italian palaeolithic. It contains a lithic industry from the Final Epigravettian, examples of rock and mobiliary art and numerous bone remains, among which were abundant remains of birds. Approximately 32 000 bird bones from over 3650 individuals and 109 species were identified. The most common species were bustards, Otis tetrax and O. tarda, and three species of goose, Anser fabalis, A. …

L'Abandon Du Kibboutz Par Les Jeunes
The Israeli kibbutz has been created under certain historical circumstances starting from a strictly egalitarian, socialist ideology. However, during its development of more than half a century, mechanisms of social stratification have appeared, which permitted the mobilization of energies, but at the same time re-created conflicts, which express themselves by the abandonment of the kibbutz. From a sample of ex-members, born in kibbutzim, the pap…
