The Origins of Domestication, or Unraveling the Equine Mystique
The past decade has seen an enormous growth in the interest archaeologists, historians, and geneticists have in the horse–human relationship. As recently as twenty-thirty years ago, one could list
The origins and spread of domestic horses from the Western Eurasian steppes
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,…

The Earliest Horse Harnessing and Milking
Horse domestication revolutionized transport, communications, and warfare in prehistory, yet the identification of early domestication processes has been problematic. Here, we present three independent lines of evidence demonstrating domestication in the Eneolithic Botai Culture of Kazakhstan, dating to about 3500 B.C.E. Metrical analysis of horse metacarpals shows that Botai horses resemble Bronze Age domestic horses rather than Paleolithic wild…
The Inception of Horse Pastoralism
The Upper Paleolithic bone industry of Klithi Rock Shelter, northwest Greece
Little has been published to date on the range of bone artifacts from the upper paleolithic of Greece, so even relatively small collections can yield significant information that assists in understanding the technology of the region in the Late Pleistocene. The Klithi rock shelter represents an important period (21,300-12,600 B.R) just before the end of the Ice Age when paleolithic hunters moved into a previously uninhabitable area in order to hu…

A Comment on Nomenclature in Faunal Studies
The study of faunal remains from archaeological sites has been described using a variety of terms including: zooarchaeology, archaeozoology, osteoarchaeology, and ethnozoology. With such a broad spectrum of terms in current usage, we feel that the contradictions and errors inherent in some of this nomenclature need to be corrected. We prefer the term zooarchaeology, as a contraction of the word zoologico-archaeology proposed by Lubbock in 1865, t…
Bone Artifacts from Kinishba Ruin
The bone implements and ornaments from Kinishba Ruin, in east central Arizona, compare closely with those from other Late Mogollon or prehistoric Western Pueblo sites in the vicinity. Manufacturing techniques and wear patterns are examined in order to devise an appropriate local typology and to reveal regional attributes. Remarkable preservation and an inherent diversity within this collection contribute to the quality of data obtainable from the…
A Study of Bone Artifacts from Grasshopper Pueblo, Az P
Through the decades Southwestern archaeologists have coined numerous terms for bone implements which usually imply specific functions. The research on utilized bone from Grasshopper Pueblo is directed toward the goal of determining the range of functions applicable to each tool type and constructing a more accurate classification of Southwestern bone artifacts. Methods employed include experimental replication, microwear studies, and investigatio…
