Origin and spread of wheat in China
The history of mediterranean-type environments
This editorial introduction highlights four of the principal themes in late-Quaternary research on summer-dry, mediterranean-type environments: first, issues of historical biogeography, such as convergent evolution; second, the synchroneity of past climate change between and within different regions; third, how far mediterranean-type environments represent cultural constructs or pristine habitats; and, fourth, the environmental future of mediterr…
Palaeoenvironmental evidence for human settlement of New Caledonia
Human occupation sites dating back to the late Pleistocene have been uncovered in the Bismarck Archipelago and northern Solomon Islands. Beyond this region to the east, however, no archaeological site pre‐dates 3500 BP. This dramatic discontinuity in time raises the question of whether an earlier migration beyond the Solomons may have taken place and it is this possibility that has been examined for New Caledonia. Sediment from Saint Louis Lac in…
Stick-Nest Rat Middens as Sources of Paleoecological Data in Australian Deserts
The existing paleoenvironmental data from the Australian arid zone lack sensitivity and come from only a few sites. Macrofossils and pollen from four dated middens of the stick-nest rat ( Leporillus spp.) were analyzed from two sites in Western Australia. Animal and plant macrofossil remains were well preserved and provided evidence of change in species distribution within the last 1150 yr. Brush-tail possum and golden bandicoot have contracted t…
