Hutterite burial site in Přibice (Brno-venkov district)
In this study, we attempted to summarize the preliminary descriptive data obtained during research of the first segment of the Hutterite burial grounds at the Přibice – Mlynářovy site between the years of 2018 and 2024. On the surveyed area of 15x15 meters, 197 primary skeletal individuals were uncovered, along with 160 sets of disturbed skeletal remains (or admixtures) originating from disturbed burials. Among the primary individuals, there were…
Mobility and connection among the Early Bronze Age Syrian elite
The archaeological site of Umm el-Marra (in the Jabbul plain, western Syria), is a large, fortified urban center. Excavations have uncovered ten tomb structures built during the Early Bronze Age (ca. 2600–2150 BCE) that possibly contain royalty as evidenced by lavish grave goods and paleopathological evidence suggesting sociocultural buffering from the harsh social and physical environments of agricultural urban centers in the Bronze Age Near Eas…
Jordanian migration and mobility in the Middle Bronze Age (ca. 2100-1550 BCE) at Pella
The site of Pella, located in the foothills of the east Jordan valley, was a prosperous city-state throughout the Middle Bronze Age (MBA, ca. 2000-1500 BCE). As part of a widespread trading network, Pella enjoyed extensive socio-economic relationships with Egypt, Cyprus, and the Aegean, Anatolia, and Babylonia during this period. We report isotopic analysis (87Sr/86Sr, δ18O, and δ13C) from enamel of 22 human permanent second molars of which 13 se…

Multi-isotopic study of diet and mobility in the northeastern Nile Delta
The origin of the Hyksos dynasty (c. 1638-1530 BCE) is thought to be rooted in the Near East given the architectural features and burial customs present at the site of Tell el-Dabca, identified as the capital of Hyksos rule in the Eastern Delta of Egypt. We expand previous 87Sr/86Sr research on the site's cemetery assemblage using a multi-isotopic methodology: oxygen (δ18O) and carbon (δ13Ccarb) stable isotopes from the carbonate portion of tooth…
Once were warriors
ObjectivesFound throughout the ancient Near East during the Middle Bronze Age (ca. 2000-1600 BCE), many modern scholars emphasize that weapon-associated burials are ideological and symbolic associations, not reflections of occupation. However, the term "warrior burial" still carries interpretive value that misinforms popular perception. The site of Sidon (Lebanon) offers an excellent context to discuss this phenomenon. Our paper aims to assess wh…
The dignity of the dead. The case of ancient Urkesh and modern Tell Mozan, Syria (2000-1600 BC)
The site of Tell Mozan lies tucked in the northeast corner of modern day Syria, located between the Tigris and the Euphrates River, an area known as Mesopotamia. Evidence recovered inside the royal palace identified the site as the ancient city of Urkesh, an important urban centre of the ethnic group known as the Hurrians. This paper focuses on the graves of the Middle Bronze Age showing signs of bone manipulation likely linked to ritual gestures…
Le feu et la mort
L’espace funéraire de Mozan, situé dans la ville haute de la cité, est constitué de nombreux ensembles, chacun contenant entre cinq et neuf tombes. Au total, plus de 150 sépultures ont été découvertes, parmi lesquelles huit ont été retrouvées en relation avec des structures de combustion. Des indices de chauffe ont été identifiés à la fois dans le remplissage des tombes et sur les ossements. D’après ces observations, la question d’une activité ri…
