Evolutionary pathways to modern human bipedalism: Evidence from the apophyseal ring of Australopithecus afarensis (A.L. 288-1)
Taphonomy through fisheyes: An Historical and Methodological Overview
This paper provides a comprehensive overview of recent advancements in archaeological fish taphonomy, synthesizing key achievements in the field. We remark that although taphonomic research in archaeology has traditionally focused on mammalian remains, fish taphonomy began to grow steadily from the late 1970s to the early 1990s, and was followed by exponential growth in subsequent decades. Today, fish taphonomy is experiencing an unprecedented ex…
Digital Zooarchaeology: State of the art, challenges, prospects and synergies
Digital technologies are an increasingly pervasive medium for zooarchaeological scholarship, providing a means to document and preserve fragile zooarchaeological specimens, share primary data, address methodological questions, and spread the information to the wider public. During the last decade, a broad array of digital technologies has been widely applied for the creation of three-dimensional images of animal bones, with a number of freely acc…
Fish in the desert: Identifying fish trade routes and the role of Red Sea parrotfish (Scaridae) during the Byzantine and Early Islamic periods
Coastal occupation and foraging during the last glacial maximum and early Holocene at Waterfall Bluff, eastern Pondoland, South Africa
Waterfall Bluff is a rock shelter in eastern Pondoland, South Africa, adjacent to a narrow continental shelf that limited coastline movements across glacial/interglacial cycles. The archaeological deposits are characterized by well-preserved stratigraphy, faunal, and botanical remains alongside abundant stone artifacts and other materials. A comprehensive dating protocol consisting of 5 optically stimulated luminescence ages and 51 accelerator ma…

Spatial Organization of Hominin Activities at Gesher Benot Ya’aqov, Israel
Home Is Where the Hearth Is One aspect of human intelligence is the ability to organize our living and working spaces. It was generally thought that this capability arose with modern humans in the past 100,000 years or so. However, Alperson-Afil et al. (p. 1677 ) found evidence of domestic organization 800,000 years ago at a Pleistocene hominin campsite in the Jordan Valley. Around patches of burnt debris, the remains of a wide range of plant and…
Early Iron Age Dor (Israel): A Faunal Perspective
This paper presents a study of archaeozoological remains from an early Iron Age (Iron I-IIA) sequence at the "Sea People"/Phoenician site of Tel Dor, on Israel's Carmel coast (Area D2). Detailed taphonomic and archaeozoological documentation provides information on a wide range of issues: subsistence practices of the site's inhabitants, which were based both on domestic animals and on the exploitation of the immediate environment; aspects of Dor'…
The Emergence of Fishing Communities in the Eastern Mediterranean region: A survey of Evidence from Pre- and Protohistoric Periods
The present overview deals with the fish remains found at Palaeolithic to Late Bronze Age sites in the Eastern Mediterranean. Attention is focussed on both marine and continental fisheries in Anatolia, the Levant and Mesopotamia. After presenting a detailed inventory of the archaeofaunal data available in the literature, an attempt is made to document diachronic trends in marine exploitation and continental fishing of the region. The use offish i…

Fish Processing During the Early Holocene: A Taphonomic Case Study from Coastal Israel
Predicting Grey Triggerfish Body Size from Bones
The present study presents a method for predicting triggerfish body size (standard length and body mass) from bones recovered from archaeological sites. Regression equations were calculated from 42 fresh triggerfish. The following seven measurements were used as best predictors for body size based on the regression coefficients, reliability of the measurements and survivorship of the bones in archaeological material: width of ethmoid, width of vo…
