Technical and Methodological Comments on McLaughlin et. al. (2018)
While McLaughlin et. al. (2018) argue for similar trends in the medieval Irish historical record and the archaeological radiocarbon record, part of their results are due to an ad-hoc bandwidth being used to calculate the kernel density estimates (KDEs). This contribution looks at using a data-driven bandwidth to re-calculate the KDEs and also look at the first derivative of the KDEs. The results here indicate the radiocarbon record declines much …
The earliest herders of East Asia
Chinook Salmon, Late Holocene Climate Change, and the Occupational History of Kettle Falls, a Columbia River Fishing Station
Kettle Falls, located 1125 km from the mouth of the Columbia River in present-day Washington State (USA), was the second-most important salmon fishing and trading locus on that river in the early historic era. We encapsulate the late Holocene history of the fishery by deriving a summed probability distribution function (SPDF) from 50 radiocarbon ages from 13 archaeological sites within 2 km of the falls. When compared to an SPDF from 307 sites fr…

Regional Craft Specialization in the Jomon Culture of Japan
Atamadai style pottery was a mica-tempered ware in use throughout the Kanto and Chubu regions of Japan during the first half of the Middle Jomon sub-period. Since mica has only a limited distribution in the Kanto and Chubu Regions, the question exists whether mica was redistributed throughout this region, or if Atamadai pottery was produced in a limited area and then redistributed throughout the Chubu and Kanto Regions. Energy dispersive x-ray fl…
Women, Death and Social Change in the British Bronze Age Comments by Mark Hall
Putting it on the Calendar
Hockett's (2005) examination of the faunal deposition rates at three sites in the Great Basin contains two fundamental errors. The rates are calculated using uncalibrated radiocarbon determinations, and ignores the fact that atmospheric radiocarbon has fluctuated through the millennia. Second, despite pronouncements on significant differences, no formal significance tests were done. This comment re-analyzes two of the sites discussed by Hockett u…

Pottery production on Rishiri Island, Japan
Energy‐dispersive X‐ray fluorescence (EDXRF) was used to determine the minor and trace element composition of 54 sherds of pottery dating from the Final Jomon to Okhotsk periods. The majority of the sherds came from Rishiri Island, Japan. Principal component (PC) scores were calculated using the log transformed concentration values, and groups were sought in the PC scores using kernel density estimates (KDEs). Two main groups were found in the da…
Pottery Styles during the Early Jomon Period
Energy‐dispersive X‐ray fluorescence (EDXRF) was used to determine the minor and trace element chemistry of 92 Early Jomon pottery sherds. The sherds came from four contemporary sites in the Kanto region and belong to either the Moroiso or Ukishima style of pottery. Principal components analysis (PCA) and discriminant analysis indicate that there are four major groups in the data set, which correspond to site location. Furthermore, for sites havi…
Jomon Pottery Production at Honmura-cho and Isarago Sites
The purpose of this paper is to examine whether Jomon pottery from two neighboring sites can be chemically distinguished from each other. For this purpose, minor and trace element composition of Jomon potsherds from the Honmura cho and Isarago sites was determined using energy dispersive x-ray fluorescence (EDXRF). The results supported the hypothesis that the majority of the Early Jomon pottery from each of these two sites was produced locally u…

Chemical Analyses of Glass Beads Found in Two Sarmatian Burials
The chemical compositions of 14 glass beads from two Early Sarmatian‐period burials were determined. Al, Ca, Fe, Mg, K, Na, and Si were measured by electron probe microbeam analysis, while the Co, Cu, Ga, Mn, Ni, Pb, Rb, Sr, Th, Ti, Y, Zn, and Zr contents were measured using energy dispersive X‐ray fluorescence. All the beads can be classed as low‐magnesia soda‐lime‐silica glasses. The blue glass beads examined in this study were coloured with Co…
Towards an absolute chronology for the Iron Age of Inner Asia
For half a century now - ever since radiocarbon dating began - there have been regional reconciliations between relative chronologies and the new absolute dating. Sometimes they have been friendly, some times less so when the two schemes have not matched well. For Inner Asia - centre of the Old World - there is belatedly now the means to resolve some fundamentals
