  • Sled Dogs, Broken Runners, and Long Journeys in the East Siberian Arctic 9000 Years Ago

    Open Access•V Pitulko, Vladimir V Pitulko et al.•ARTICLE•PaleoAmerica•2026

    At the Zhokhov site (East Siberian Arctic, ca. 9000 years ago), excavations revealed the earliest solid evidence of advanced land transport: sledge parts and dog bones. Recognizable sledge elements include runners and upright supports, indicating at least two types: light sledges pulled by a hunter or a single dog, and larger cargo sleds for dog teams. The sledge design closely matches the historic Chukchi-Koryak arc-stanchion type. The emergence…

  • Searching for Domestication Signatures in Fossil Dogs and Wolves of Northern Eurasia. Part 1

    Open Access•Aleksei K Kasparov, Varvara V Ivanova et al.•ARTICLE•Vestnik of Saint Petersburg…•2025

    Despite the long history of research, the problem of reliable morphological identification of fossil canids still stands, especially for the early stages of wolf/dog domestication. Mandibles are best preserved in geological record. Their morphology mostly allows reliable species identification of fossil canid bone remains. Based on the reference wolf and domestic dog samples from recent populations, we developed a method of species identification…

    Mass manufacture of non-utilitarian objects, which are informational in essence, is a characteristic feature of the Upper Paleolithic. A unique sample of such items (pendants, beads, decorated diadems, and bracelets) comes from the Yana complex of sites. These items testify to advanced views of identity, held by people of the Eastern Siberian Arctic ~32 ka BP. These views formed a three-level information system («friend or foe» recognition, intra…

  • Land Transportation Technology of the East Siberian Arctic People in the Early Holocene

    V Pitulko, E Y Pavlova•ARTICLE•Stratum plus Archaeology and…•2025•Citada por: 1

    Working dogs and dogsleds make a hallmark of historical culture in the North. However, it was always thought to be a relatively late invention. Excavations of the Zhokhov site yielded various artefacts including wooden parts of built-up sled and dog bone remains. Thus, as early as 9000 years ago, the arctic East Siberia settlers had developed a transport culture that also involved dog breeding. Such land transport technology facilitated move of m…

  • Zhokhov site sledges as a part of the land transportation system of the East Siberian Arctic dwellers 9000 years ago

    Open Access•V Pitulko, E Y Pavlova•ARTICLE•Camera praehistorica•2024•Citada por: 1

    The Zhokhov island site (76°06' N, 152°42' E) is one of the northernmost archaeological sites in the world indicating human development of these territories back in the early Holocene, about 9000 years ago, and provides the oldest evidence of human presence in the high latitudes. Its archaeological context secured by the permafrost, is of rare completeness and quality, and includes objects made of non-durable materials. Structural elements of dog…

  • Late Pleistocene and Early Holocene Paleoenvironments, Human Settlement and Adaptations in the East Siberian Arctic

    V Pitulko, E Y Pavlova•ARTICLE•Stratum plus Archaeology and…•2023

    Archaeological record of the Stone Age in the East Siberian Arctic spans approximately 50,000 years. There are three main stages reflecting steps in human settlement of the Arctic Eurasia driven by various abiotic and biotic factors: early (~50 to ~29 ka, MIS 3); middle (~29 to ~ 11,7 ka, MIS 2) and late (from 11,7 to ~8 ka). Successful peopling of the Arctic was largely facilitated by adoption of critically important innovations such as sewing t…

  • Ecological Constraints and Drivers for Human Dispersals and Adaptations in the Late Pleistocene and Early Holocene Environments of the East Siberian Arctic

    Open Access•V Pitulko, E Y Pavlova•ARTICLE•Quaternary•2023•Citada por: 1•Referências: 27

    Starting roughly 50,000 years ago, the Arctic region of East Siberia remained continuously populated by groups of anatomically modern humans including the most uncomfortable episodes in the development of the late Quaternary environment; for some of them, human presence in the area became ephemeral. At present, archaeological fossil records allow for distinguishing three main stages in human occupation of the area: Early (~50 to ~29 ka, MIS 3), m…

  • The origins and spread of domestic horses from the Western Eurasian steppes

    Open Access•Pablo Librado, Naveed Khan et al.•ARTICLE•Nature•2021

    Domestication of horses fundamentally transformed long-range mobility and warfare 1 . However, modern domesticated breeds do not descend from the earliest domestic horse lineage associated with archaeological evidence of bridling, milking and corralling 2–4 at Botai, Central Asia around 3500 bc 3 . Other longstanding candidate regions for horse domestication, such as Iberia 5 and Anatolia 6 , have also recently been challenged. Thus, the genetic,…

  • Peopling the Americas

    G R Scott, Dennis H O''Rourke et al.•ARTICLE•PaleoAmerica•2021

    A widely accepted model for the peopling of the Americas postulates a source population in the Northeast Asian maritime region, which includes northern Japan. The model is based on similarities in stone artifacts (stemmed points) found in North American sites dating as early as 15,000 years ago and those of comparable age in Japan and neighboring regions of Northeast Asia. Here we show, on the basis of data and analyses in biological anthropology…

    To clarify unanswered questions of site formation, geology and the archaeology of the Berelekh geoarchaeological complex, a special survey was undertaken in 2009 of the area surrounding the site. Several geological units have been revealed. By establishing the spatial and temporal relationship of these deposits—as well as their age—we have reconstructed the formation history of the Berelekh bone bed. The mammoth bone deposit belongs to a paleocha…

  • Reconstructing prey selection, hunting strategy and seasonality of the early Holocene frozen site in the Siberian High Arctic

    V Pitulko, Vladimir V Pitulko et al.•ARTICLE•Environmental Archaeology•2014•Citada por: 12•Referências: 5

    The Zhokhov site is one of the northern most archaeological sites in the world and a very ancient vestige of occupation of high latitudes by people, indicating that this territory was settled as early as about 8000 years ago. Investigation of the site began in 1989–1990 and then continued in 2000–2005. Here we consider the taphonomy, spatial distribution, species and age- and sex-related composition of the faunal remains from the Zhokhov site. Th…

    Since the 1920s, attempts have been made in various regions of Siberia to set up craft centers. In the Altai, similar experiments were unsuccessful for a long period of time. Circumstances only began to change in the 1980s. At that time there were eight craft centers with 66 craftsmen based in Gorny Altai. The 1990s were marked by the revival of ethnic traditions and values in post-Soviet Russia. In the early 1990s, the fi rst project aimed at re…
