Dung Temper in Neolithic Pottery of the Eastern Fertile Crescent as an Indicator of Animal Domestication
Since the early 7th millennium BC, when ceramics had become widespread in the Eastern Fertile Crescent, specifically in central valleys and the western foothills of the Zagros, they were tempered exclusively with organic plant remains. Here, we outline the findings of the study of this temper using microscopic technological analysis, X-ray tomography and spherulite analysis, upholding the suggestion that dung was present in the paste. The samples…
Dung Temper in Neolithic Pottery of the Eastern Fertile Crescent as an Indicator of Animal Domestication
С начала VII тыс. до н.э., когда керамика получила повсеместное распространение на территории восточной части Плодородного Полумесяца — в центральных долинах и западных предгорьях Загроса, — она содержала исключительно органическую растительную примесь. В настоящей работе эта примесь была изучена с помощью микроскопического технологического анализа, рентгеновской томографии и сферулитного анализа, в результате чего подтверждено предположение о ее…

Project ArAgats 1998-2018: Twenty years of archaeological investigations into the Bronze and Iron Ages of Armenia
The year 2018 marked the 20th anniversary of the joint Armenian-American Project for the Archaeology and Geography of Ancient Transcaucasian Societies, a collaboration more parsimoniously known as Project ArAGATS. The project was originally conceived as an effort to define long-term processes of social, economic, and political change in the South Caucasus across the Bronze and Iron Ages at a regional scale. In addition to introducing methods of i…
Obsidian-tempered pottery in the Southern Caucasus: A new approach to obsidian as a ceramic-temper
Ağri Ovasi, Ermeni̇stan Kesi̇mi̇nde Neoli̇ti̇k Bi̇r Yerleşi̇m Aknashen Khatunarkh: 2004-2009 Kazilarinin Sonuçlari
This paper presents the preliminary results of the excavations (2004-2009) of Aknashen-Khatunarkh, a Neolithic site in the plain of Ararat. More than 300 m 2 has been excavated of this tell, which is about 100 m in diameter and 3,5 m in height. The cultural layer, more than 4 m thick, was subdivided preliminarily into five horizons, the upper one (I) belonging to the Early Chalcolithic and the others (II-V) to the Late Neolithic. A series of 1…
