Ochre and hide-working during the early bronze age at Dhaskalio, central Cyclades
Dhaskalio is a small and steep-sided islet at the western end of the island of Keros in the central Cyclades. Excavations carried out between 2006–2008 and 2016–2018 brought to light the remains of extensive architecture on Dhaskalio and a ritual area of significant importance in the Kavos area of Keros, both dated to the mid-third millennium BCE. Among the findings is a substantial macro-lithic assemblage, comprising stone artefacts made from di…
Exploring the production of lithic instruments at Mahal Teglinos (Eastern Sudan)
Despite the existence of intense research focused on the characterisation of macro traces derived from the use of the knapping on anvil technique, little attention has been dedicated to the detection of micro technical traces and residues on blanks and cores produced by means of this knapping technique. Macro technical traces derived from the knapping on anvil technique were detected on stone artefacts from the Gash Group’s lithic assemblage (mid…
Use-wear analyses of macro-lithic artefacts from the Early Bronze Age site of Dhaskalio, central Aegean, unveil their use as tools for metalworking
Networked spaces
The 34 articles published in this volume form the proceedings of the 9th Red Sea conference held at Lyon in July 2019, whose core topic was the “spatiality of networks in the Red Sea”, including the western Indian Ocean. In the networked space that the Erythra Thalassa never ceased to be, stable factors such as landscape, climate, and wind patterns have been constantly entangled with more dynamic elements, such as human activity. The contributors…
Lithic manufacture at Medogwe, southwest of Aksum, Tigray, Ethiopia
Recent research at the site of Medogwe, located in the valley of the Nigus-Haselo River, Tigray, Ethiopia, has revealed a sequence of development in stone tool production and use spanning the late Pre-Aksumite to Middle Aksumite periods. It has provided evidence of standardised, mass lithic manufacture during the Early Aksumite phase. This paper outlines the results of an abundant corpus of surface collected and excavated lithics from which it ha…
