International Protocol for the Study of Amorphous Charred Objects in Archaeology (Ipsaco 1.0)
Archaeobotanists around the world increasingly recognise that, alongside commonly studied materials such as seeds, fruits, wood charcoal, and chaff, archaeobotanical samples also contain fragments of carbonised organic (and sometimes inorganic) matter that vary in shape and often display an amorphous structure. These amorphous charred objects (ACO) are emerging as a novel proxy within the broader field of plant macroremain studies in Archaeology.…
Ethics in archaeobotany: Identifying current issues and initiating a declaration of principles
This article presents the first systematic assessment of ethical concerns specific to archaeobotanical research, focusing on principles and values. Conducted by an international group of archaeobotanists, the study used an anonymous online survey to document experiences and perceptions within the archaeobotanical community with the aim of raising awareness, identifying prevalent good practices and noting points for improvement. The questionnaire …
Agropastoral practices and woodland management shaped the Irano-Turanian steppe-forest vegetation during the Transitional PPNA/B–Early PPNB (8895–8210 cal bce) at Kharaysin, Jordan
The present study reconstructs vegetation change and human–environment interactions from the Transitional Pre-Pottery Neolithic A/B (8895–8415 cal bce) to the Early Pre-Pottery Neolithic B (8465–8210 cal bce) at the Kharaysin archaeological site (Zarqa, Jordan). For the first time at this site, integrated pollen, wood charcoal and phytolith analyses have been carried out in combination with a detailed archaeostratigraphic and Bayesian-modelled ch…
Evolution of plant exploitation strategies of Early and Late Natufian hunter-gatherers at Shubayqa 1 (14,600–11,500 cal bp), Black Desert of Jordan
The Late Epipalaeolithic marks a pivotal period in the development of economic practices that ultimately culminated in plant-food production. Within this context, Natufian hunter-gatherers are often regarded as among the earliest sedentary communities, traditionally portrayed as reliant on wild cereals and as possible early cultivators. Shubayqa 1, a Natufian site in semi-arid northeastern Jordan spanning the Early and Late Natufian phases (14,60…
Biogeography of Crop Progenitors and Wild Plant Resources in the Terminal Pleistocene and Early Holocene of West Asia, 14.7–8.3 ka
This paper presents the first continuous, spatially-explicit reconstructions of the palaeodistributions of 65 plant species found regularly in association with early agricultural archaeological sites in West Asia, including the progenitors of the first crops. We used machine learning to train an ecological niche model of each species based on its present-day distribution in relation to climate and environmental variables. Predictions of the poten…
From Stone to Food: Foodways and Ground Stone Tools During the Natufian and Early Neolithic of Eastern Jordan
This study examines the use of ground stone tools in food processing in the Southern Levant during the Late Epipalaeolithic (Natufian) and the Pre-Pottery Neolithic A (PPNA), analysing tools from the sites Shubayqa 1 and 6, in Northeast Jordan. Employing a techno-morphological analysis focused on gestures together with low-power microscopic use-wear analysis it explores foodways in a local context, tracking changes over time to what people proces…
Pulse of the Past: A ground stone tools perspective on the significance of legumes at the Pre Pottery Neolithic site of Kharaysin (Jordan)
Ground stone tools are considered prime evidence for exploring significant aspects of prehistoric societies, particularly concerning plant food processing. For this reason, studying their use can reveal relevant clues concerning the modes of exploitation of specific plants and highlight local and shared culinary practices. This paper presents the first functional study of the ground stone tools from the Pre Pottery Neolithic site of Kharaysin in …
Architecture in Kharaysin from the late PPNA to the middle PPNB
The study of the architectural remains discovered at the Early Neolithic site of Kharaysin (Zarqa, Jordan) casts light on the evolution of building techniques in the Jordan Highlands from the late 10th millennium, at the end of the PPNA, to the mid-8th millennium cal BC, during the Middle PPNB. Five main architectural levels are identified. Oval sunken dwellings were built at the end of 10th and the beginning of the 9th millennia cal BC. In ca. 8…
Exploitation and consumption of legumes during the Early Neolithic at Kharaysin, Jordan
This paper investigates the evolution of plant exploitation practices during the Pre-Pottery Neolithic (PPN) period in the southern Levant, with the particular focus on the exploitation of legumes. We analyse the archaeobotanical assemblages from the PPN site of Kharaysin, in Jordan (9000–6800 cal bce ), which have yielded a significant assemblage totalling 6,807 plant remains. The results show that legumes including Vicia narbonensis (Narbon vet…
Revisiting Neolithic Ali Kosh: New Insights into Settlement Sustainability, Human Mobility, and Subsistence Strategies
In western Asia, the Zagros foothills played a fundamental role in the formulation of early explanatory hypotheses on the origins of agriculture. The excavations at the emblematic Neolithic site of Ali Kosh, Deh Luran, led to the development of the so-called “marginal zone hypothesis.” However, some chronological inconsistencies remained until a new stratigraphic excavation was carried out in 2017 to revise the findings. According to the new eval…
The Early Pre-Pottery Neolithic B in The Southern Levant: Contributions from Tell Qarassa North (Sweida, Syria) and Kharaysin (Zarqa, Jordan)
During the last twenty years, several archaeological sites with occupation levels attributed to the Early Pre-Pottery Neolithic B have been excavated in the southern Levant, filling the previous information gap. Our excavations at Tell Qarassa North (Sweida, Syria) and Kharaysin (Zarqa, Jordan), with EPPNB occupations dated from ca. 8600 to 8200 cal. BC, have contributed to the renewal of our knowledge of the PPNB in the southern area of the Fert…
Identifying the chaîne opératoire of club-rush (Bolboschoenus glaucus (Lam.) S.G.Sm) tuber exploitation during the Early Natufian in the Black Desert (northeastern Jordan)
Club-rush (Bolboschoenus spp. (Asch.) Palla) is one of the most common edible wild plant taxa found at Epipaleolithic and Neolithic sites in southwest Asia. At the Early Natufian site of Shubayqa 1 (Black Desert, Jordan) thousands of club-rush rhizome-tuber remains and hundreds of fragments of prepared meals were found. The evidence indicated that the underground storage organs of this plant were recurrently used as a source of food 14,600 years …
Revisiting the concept of the ‘Neolithic Founder Crops’ in southwest Asia
Zohary and Hopf coined the term ‘founder crops’ to refer to a specific group of eight plants, namely three cereals (einkorn, emmer and barley), four legumes (lentil, pea, bitter vetch and chickpea), and a fibre/oil crop (flax), that founded early Neolithic agriculture in southwest Asia. Zohary considered these taxa as the first cultivated and domesticated species, as well as those that agricultural communities exploited and eventually spread to E…
Archaeology of Plant Foods. Methods and Challenges in the Identification of Plant Consumption during the Pre-Pottery Neolithic in Southwest Asia
This article reviews the main archaeobotanical approaches to identify plant food consumption in the archaeological record and it offers a critic evaluation of the available evidence for the use of plants as food during the Pre-Pottery Neolithic period (c. 9700- 7000 cal. BC), the time when domesticated plants and agriculture developed in Southwest Asia. It argues that modern perspectives on human diet and agriculture have tainted our understandin…
Identification of the Triticoid-type grains (Poaceae) from archaeobotanical assemblages in southwest Asia as Heteranthelium piliferum (Banks & Sol.) Hochst
The so-called Triticoid-type grains are known from several prehistoric sites in southwest Asia and their identification has long been unclear. They resemble the grains of wheats and researchers suggested they may represent an extinct Triticeae species, possibly closely related to wild crop progenitors. In this study we identify the Triticoid-type grains as Heteranthelium piliferum (Banks & Sol.) Hochst. and describe the key identification criteri…
Sickle gloss texture analysis elucidates long-term change in plant harvesting during the transition to agriculture
Archaeobotanical and genetic analysis of modern plant materials are drawing a complex scenario for the origins of cereal agriculture in the Levant. This paper presents an improved method for the study of early farming harvesting systems based on the texture analysis of gloss observed on sickle blades through confocal microscopy. Using this method, we identify different plant harvesting activities (unripe, semi-ripe and ripe cereal reaping and ree…
The Formation of Early Neolithic Communities in the Central Zagros: An 11,500 Year‐old Communal Structure at Asiab
Communal buildings have been reported from a number of early Neolithic sites from the Levant and Anatolia, but none were known from the central Zagros. Here we report on the recent excavations at Asiab, Kermanshah province, Iran, and argue that the principal feature found during Robert Braidwood’s excavation at the site in 1960 should be interpreted as an example of a communal building. We discuss the results of the previous and recent excavation…

Archaeobotanical evidence reveals the origins of bread 14,400 years ago in northeastern Jordan
Significance Despite being one of the most important foodstuffs consumed in the modern world, the origins of bread are still largely unknown. Here we report the earliest empirical evidence for the preparation of bread-like products by Natufian hunter-gatherers, 4,000 years before the emergence of the Neolithic agricultural way of life. The discovery of charred food remains has allowed for the reconstruction of the chaîne opératoire for the early …
Regional diversity on the timing for the initial appearance of cereal cultivation and domestication in southwest Asia
Significance Recent studies show that cultivation of wild and domesticated plants was a protracted process that developed across southwest Asia. However, there have not been sufficient data to evaluate whether cereal cultivation and domestication developed in parallel in all the regions or at different times. Our findings indicate that cultivation of wild cereal forms during Pre-Pottery Neolithic A was common only in specific regions such as the …
Hunter-gatherer plant use in southwest Asia: The Path to Agriculture
Preliminary analysis of the Late Natufian ground stone from Shubayqa 1, Jordan
Shubayqa 1 is a newly identified early and late Natufian site in the harra desert of northeastern Jordan. In addition to buildings, and rich chipped stone, faunal, and botanical assemblages, the site has produced a large collection of ground stone tools. This paper presents the result of a preliminary study of the ground stone artefacts associated with the late Natufian phase. Results indicate that while the assemblage is overall very similar to …
Crop husbandry activities and wild plant gathering, use and consumption at the EPPNB Tell Qarassa North (south Syria)
Shubayqa 6: A new Late Natufian and Pre-Pottery Neolithic A settlement in north-east Jordan
The Pre-Pottery Neolithic A (PPNA; c. 9600-8500 cal BC) period in the Levant provides the earliest confirmed evidence for plant cultivation anywhere in the world, marking a significant escalation in the human management of plants towards fully fledged agricultural food production. Until now, the majority of PPNA sites have been documented in the Jordan Valley, the Wadi Araba and farther north along the Upper Euphrates (e.g. Mureybet, Jerf el-Ahma…
