Indigenous versus Official Knowledge, Concepts and Institutions
It has been argued that there exists no fundamental difference per se between indigenous and scientific knowledge (Agrawal 1995). Others have expounded on the potential for integration of the two types of knowledge and hailed 'technoblending' as the proper path for achieving sustainable and people-oriented development (McCorkle et al. 1999). This article draws attention to the very real divide that often exists between the protagonists of these t…
Wadi Shuʿeib, A Large Neolithic Community in Central Jordan
Wadi Shuʿeib is one of the huge Neolithic "mega-sites" that have been investigated in the Levantine Near East in recent years. The site, located in the central Jordanian highlands, was test excavated over two seasons. Although these were only limited excavations, they demonstrated that Wadi Shuʿeib is a large Neolithic settlement that spans the Pre-Pottery Neolithic B (Middle and Late phases), the Pre-Pottery Neolithic C, and the Pottery Neolithi…
A Brief note on the fauna from Neolithic 'Ain Ghazal
New information on the faunal remains from 'Ain Ghazal is presented. Material from the LPPNB period, although the sample is small, indicates that the residents at the site responded to a culturally degraded environment by increasing their reliance on domesticated ovicaprids in the latter half of the 7th millennium ВС
PPNC adaptations in the first half of the 6th millennium B.C
La stratégie de subsistance combinant agriculture et élevage, maintenue au PPNB pendant le début du 7L millénaire (MPPNB) dans la partie centrale et méridionale du Levant, a gravement compromis les équilibres écologiques dans le voisinage des établissements agricoles, ce qui a mené sans doute à l'abandon généralisé des villages dès 6 500 B.C. Les solutions apportées vers la fin du 7e millénaire (LPPNB) sont mal connues dans la région. Vers le déb…

Changes in Goat Exploitation at 'Ain Ghazal between the Early and Late Neolithic
A 'Ain Ghazal l'examen de l'évolution de la taille des ossements post-crâniens des chèvres au cours du Néolithique permit ďétablir un déclin net de la taille moyenne entre les deux phases, mais pas de changement dans la taille minimum. Ceci pourrait être la conséquence d'une élimination préférentielle des plus grands individus, qui occasionnerait un abaissement du taux de variabilité. Ce phénomène est attribué à un changement du type ď exploitati…
