Determining the Antiquity of Dog Origins - Canine domestication as a model for the consilience between molecular genetics and archaeology - Bok av Mic

Determining the Antiquity of Dog Origins - Canine domestication as a model for the consilience between molecular genetics and archaeology - Bok av Mic

Archaeologists have favoured a date of 14,000-15,000 years before present (BP) for canine domestication. However, recent studies of mutations in the mitochondrial DNA sequence by molecular geneticists have implied that dogs were domesticated over 100,000years ago, which has challenged traditional theory. Geneticists have further hypothesized that dogs originated from wolf ancestors based upon the number of substitutions observed in dog and wolf haplotypes. Although both disciplines provide substantial..

Guides Guards and Gifts to the Gods: Domesticated Dogs in the Art and Archaeology of Iron Age and Roman Britain - Bok av Kate Smith - Häftad

Guides Guards and Gifts to the Gods: Domesticated Dogs in the Art and Archaeology of Iron Age and Roman Britain - Bok av Kate Smith - Häftad

This study investigates the symbolic role of the domestic dog in Iron Age and Roman Britain through contextual analysis of their faunal remains and interpretation of their representations in iconography. Previous studies have highlighted linkages between the species and ideas about death, healing and regeneration. Although these connections clearly did exist in the cosmologies of Britain and the Western provinces of Rome, this detailed examination of the evidence seeks to identify reasons why this..

In Dialogue: Tradition and Interaction in the Mesolithic-Neolithic Transition - Bok - Häftad

In Dialogue: Tradition and Interaction in the Mesolithic-Neolithic Transition - Bok - Häftad

This book developed from discussions following the 2012 In Dialogue: Tradition and Interaction in the Mesolithic-Neolithic Transition conference held in Manchester, UK. This conference provided a forum to compare not only the processes through which material innovations were adopted and elaborated during the Early Neolithic, but also the ways in which these processes have been understood and represented within the respective archaeological research traditions. The book examines the developments that..

Bath in Greece in Classical Antiquity - Bok av Maria-Evdokia Wassenhoven - Häftad

Bath in Greece in Classical Antiquity - Bok av Maria-Evdokia Wassenhoven - Häftad

The present study evolved out of an attempt to explore the mechanisms involved in the transformation of a social practice and its spatial context from one cultural, technological and architectural system to another in a given geographical area in classical antiquity. The practice chosen was that of the bath, the two main and overlapping cultural traditions were the Greek and the Roman and the two technological traditions are termed in the present study 'before' and 'after' the hypocaust. The geographical..

Dispute Management in Heritage Conservation: The Case of in situ Museums - Bok av Kalliopi Fouseki - Häftad

Dispute Management in Heritage Conservation: The Case of in situ Museums - Bok av Kalliopi Fouseki - Häftad

The nature of disputes related to the in situ conservation of archaeological remains into the basements of contemporary buildings are explored in this study. Through a novel, interdisciplinary approach negotiation theories and models with heritage management practices are merged, and the concept of in situ museums (structures that conserve in situ archaeological remains) is introduced. The author discusses examples of in situ conservation of archaeological remains in contemporary private and public..

Architecture and Archaeology in the Cyclades - Papers in honour of J.J. Coulton - Bok - Häftad

Architecture and Archaeology in the Cyclades - Papers in honour of J.J. Coulton - Bok - Häftad

9 papers presented at a colloquium held in honour of J.J. Coulton at Lincoln College, Oxford on 17 April 2004, to mark his retirement from the Readership in Classical Archaeology at Merton College, Oxford. Jim Coulton devoted much of his early career to the study of Cycladic architecture. He saw earlier than most how important this area would be in advancing our knowledge not only of ancient architecture but also of many aspects of ancient Greek civilisation in general.

Attic Pinakes: Votive Images in Clay - Votive images in clay - Bok av Kyriaki Karoglou - Häftad

Attic Pinakes: Votive Images in Clay - Votive images in clay - Bok av Kyriaki Karoglou - Häftad

In modern studies pinax refers to a flat, rectangular, painted slab of clay placed in a sanctuary or tomb. In this study the author presents the various occurrences and possible meanings of the word pinax in the sources and examines the representation of pinakes on vases. A synthesis of pinakes is much needed since it can provide valuable information about ancient Greek religious and social practices. To this end, this book by concentrating on Attic pinakes fills a substantial gap in scholarship..

Resting in Peace or in Pieces? studies Tomb I, a tholos type structure found in the Perdigões Archaeological Complex (Évora, Portugal) from the first half of the 3rd millennium BC. The human bone sample (61926 bone fragments and 1579 teeth) found in Tomb I was highly fragmented and skeletonised elements were found completely disarticulated.
