Enhancing data collection for palaeoenvironmental approaches in anthracology
X-ray microtomography has emerged as a valuable technique in archaeology for over a decade, aiding in the recording, preservation, and analysis of artifacts. While its application to archaeobotanical remains is well-documented, its use to study archaeological wood charcoal remains limited to preliminary research. This work explores microtomography suitability for anthracological studies based on a paleoenvironmental perspective. Ten Amazonian woo…
Sobre el uso imágenes microtomográficas para estudios de carbón de madera arqueológico
There are currently hardly any references to anthracological analyses using microtomography. Expectations about its potential, suggested in part by its use on similar materials, need to be evaluated in anthracological practice, according to the specificity of its subject. This paper seeks to highlight some benefits and disadvantages of the technique in the analysis of archaeological charcoal assemblages and to point out aspects to which it offers…
Building techniques and materials for 500-year-old long-lived earth monuments
A preservação de restos arqueobotânicos e o processo de análise por microtomografia de raios X
O uso de microtomografias de raios X para o estudo de restos macroscópicos de plantas recuperadas em sítios arqueológicos é uma prática relativamente recente em Arqueologia. No entanto, a técnica possui amplo espectro de aplicações em áreas de pesquisa muito diversas. Os diferentes trabalhos relacionados com a aplicação apontam a não destrutividade dos procedimentos microtomográficos como um de seus atributos relevantes, juntamente com a alta qua…
Facing Change through Diversity
Recent advances in the archaeology of lowland South America are furthering our understanding of the Holocene development of plant cultivation and domestication, cultural niche construction, and relationships between environmental changes and cultural strategies of food production. This article offers new data on plant and landscape management and mobility in Southwestern Amazonia during a period of environmental change at the Middle to Late Holoc…
Study of plant remains from a fluvial shellmound (Monte Castelo, RO, Brazil) using the X-ray MicroCT imaging technique
Palmar Dermatoglyphics of Corsicans and Comparison with Those of Sardinians
We report on five dermatoglyphic traits recorded on palm prints in sample of Sardinians and Corsicans.The two populations are very similar but not identical
El ambiente y los recursos
In this paper current ways of obtaining and using firewood and clay in La Quebrada (Catamarca, Argentina) are studied. Its aim is to explore a set of social and cultural variables which take part in modelling these practices. Information about selection of materials, restrictions to their access, final use and organization and logistic of their gathering is obtained and analyzed through ethnographic methodological tools. We hope these data enrich…
Archaeobotanical remains found in a house at the archaeological site of Cardonal, valle del Cajón, Argentina
Prevalence and Trend of Overweight and Obesity Among Sardinian Conscripts (Italy) of 1969 and 1998
This study evaluated the prevalence of overweight and obesity in the male Sardinian population (Italy), and verifies that it has increased over the last 30 years. Data were collected during 2003–2004 from military registers in the Archive of the Military District of Cagliari for the years 1969 and 1998. A total of 22,345 forms were analysed from all Sardinia. The conscripts were classified on the basis of their place of residence and socioeconomi…
Una Máscara De Cobre De Tres Mil Años
En este artículo presentamos una máscara del noroeste de Argentina que es uno de los objetos de cobre más antiguos de la región andina.Damos a conocer sus particulares condiciones de hallazgo y los fechados radiocarbónicos asociados.Informamos también los resultados de los análisis arqueometalúrgicos efectuados sobre ella.Este hallazgo se enmarca en el contexto de las evidencias tempranas de metalurgia de cobre en el área andina.Debido a que se t…
A contribution to the study of diet of formative societies in northwestern Argentina
The present paper is aimed at presenting and discussing currently available isotopic values (δ13C) of human samples dated to the Formative Period in the Santa María Valley, adjacent to the Yungas and Puna regions of northwestern Argentina. Results show that the expected tendency of increasingly positive C4 isotopic values consistent with the hypothesis of maize agriculture consolidation during Formative times was only partially corroborated. A fu…
Built landscapes of everyday life
This article focuses on the architectural characteristics of a household compound in Cardonal, an early agricultural village located in the southern Cajón Valley (Catamarca, north-western Argentina) dated to the first centuries ad. When architecture, as landscape, is understood as the result of the daily tasks of living, the research carried out in Cardonal gives substance to the ways in which the materiality of everyday life forged the building …
Β-globin cluster haplotypes in normal individuals and β039-thalassemia carriers from Sardinia, Italy
Seven polymorphic sites in the beta-globin cluster in association with specific thalassemia mutations were analyzed in a sample from Sardinia, Italy. In order to verify previous works carried out on normal samples (beta(A)/beta(A)) and family studies on beta-thalassemia homozygotes individuals, the haplotype frequencies in both normal individuals (beta(A)/beta(A)) and beta(0)39-thalassemia carriers (beta(A)/beta0) were studied. In our work chromo…
Genetic Characterization of the Historical Albanian Ethnic Minority of Calabria (Southern Italy)
Three historical ethnic minorities are present in Calabria: Albanians, Greeks, and Occitans. The Albanian ethnic minority is the more populous, having settled in Calabria between the 15th and 17th centuries, and these populations are now located in the provinces of Cosenza and Catanzaro. In the present study the Albanian population structure is analyzed based on the allele frequencies of six classic genetic markers: ACP, GC, PGM1, AK, ADA, and 6P…
Genetic Analysis of a Sicilian Population Using 15 Short Tandem Repeats
The genetic structure of the population of Alia (Sicily, Italy) was analyzed using 15 short tandem repeats: TPOX, D2S1338, D3S1358, FIBRA, D5S818, CSF1PO, D7S820, D8S1179, TH01, VWA, D13S317, D16S539, D18S51, D19S433, and D21S11. Two of these markers, D2S1338 and D19S433, have never before been used in research on population genetics and only recently have they been put to use in forensic medicine. Results of the analysis underline the genetic is…
Mitochondrial DNA sequence analysis in Sicily
This study reports data on the sequences of the first hypervariable segment of a sample of the Sicilian population from Alia (Palermo, Italy). The results show the presence of 32 different haplotypes in the 49 individuals examined. The average number of pairwise nucleotide differences was 4.04, i.e., 1.17% per nucleotide. The distribution of the nucleotide differences matches the theoretical distribution and indicates only one major episode of ex…

Genetic structure of southwestern Corsica (France)
The distribution of nine red cell enzymes (ACP, ADA, AK, DIA, ESD, GLO1, PGM1, PGD, and SOD) and seven plasma proteins (C3, GC, HP, ORM, PI, PLG, and TF) was analyzed in a sample of 274 unrelated individuals from the southwestern area of Corsica (France), specifically from Ajaccio and nearby villages. The aim of the research was to study the genetic structure of Corsica and to add further to our knowledge about microgeographic variability of poly…

Genetics, geography, and culture
An interesting aspect of the island of Sardinia (Italy) is the wide range of genetic variability within the island itself. The variability is widened by the presence of some populations of different ethnic origin who speak a language other than Sardinian. This work deals with the study of the genetic structure of the Carloforte population which inhabits the tiny island of S. Pietro 4 km off the southwest coast of Sardinia. S. Pietro was first pop…
