  • The Shrew of Nagaland

    Open AccessRainer Hutterer, Mark T Swanson et al.ARTICLEBulletin of the American Museum…2025

    A new genus and species of extant shrew, Nagasorex albidens, is described based on a single specimen obtained in Nagaland, northeastern India, in 1950. The new species shows novel characters, such as a total tooth number of 34, not found in any extant genus though they are found in extinct genera such as †Miosorex, †Lartetium, †Pseudotrimylus, and †Domnina. To determine the phylogenetic relationships of the new species, we first analyzed craniode…

  • Chronology, time averaging, and oxygen isotope composition of harvested marine mollusk assemblages from Ifri Oudadane, northeast Morocco

    Open AccessWilliam Sanchez, Yurena Yanes et al.ARTICLEQuaternary Research2022

    The archaeological site of Ifri Oudadane, NE Morocco, contains well-preserved marine mollusk concentrations throughout the Epipaleolithic (hunting-gathering) and Neolithic (food production) cultural phases, useful to test hypotheses driving such transition. However, the chronology and stratigraphy of harvested shells is complex due to the confluence of human activity and natural deposition processes. This work first quantifies the age and degree …

  • Food and Ornament

    Open AccessRainer Hutterer, Oskar Schröder et al.ARTICLEAfrican Archaeological Review2021Cited by: 1References: 35

    Recent excavations of Ifri Oudadane, a prehistoric rockshelter on the Mediterranean coast of NW Morocco, yielded a rich marine and terrestrial fauna. We present an analysis of the shellfish remains (exoskeleton-bearing aquatic invertebrates) from the 2011 trench, covering the Epipaleolithic and Early Neolithic levels. A total of 4,415 liters of sediment contained 8,749 specimens (MNI) of at least 40 species of shellfish: 12 bivalves, 24 gastropod…

  • On the transition from hunting-gathering to food production in NE Morocco as inferred from archeological Phorcus turbinatus shells

    Open AccessYurena Yanes, Rainer Hutterer et al.ARTICLEThe Holocene2018References: 11

    Processes behind the shift from hunting-gathering to food production lifestyle are multifaceted and not yet completely understood. The Mediterranean coast of NW Africa provides an eclectic transitional pattern, namely, a very hesitant transition to food production. The distribution and abundance of early Neolithic domesticated species is disparate and region specific. Climate and environmental change have been often considered as an important inf…

  • Late-Holocene asynchronous extinction of endemic mammals on the eastern Canary Islands

    Open AccessJuan Carlos Rando Reyes, Juan Carlos Rando et al.ARTICLEThe Holocene2011Cited by: 3References: 7

    The Lava mouse ( Malpaisomys insularis), and the Canarian shrew ( Crocidura canariensis) are endemic of the Eastern Canary Islands and islets. The former is extinct while Canarian shrew survives in the two main islands and two islets. In order to provide insights regarding causes and processes contributing to the extinction of these endemic mammals: (i) we established last occurrence dates for Lava mouse, and first records for two exotic species …

  • Chronology and causes of the extinction of the Lava Mouse, Malpaisomys insularis (Rodentia

    Open AccessJuan Carlos Rando Reyes, Juan Carlos Rando et al.ARTICLEQuaternary Research2008

    Understanding late Holocene extinctions on islands requires accurate chronologies for all relevant events, including multiple colonisations by humans and the introduction of alien species. The most widely held hypothesis on the causes of Holocene island vertebrate extinctions incorporates human impacts, although climatic-related hypotheses cannot be excluded. Both hypotheses have been suggested to account for the extinction of the endemic Lava Mo…
