Between-group Differences in the Patterning of Musculo-skeletal Stress Markers: Avoiding Confounding Factors by Focusing on Qualitative Aspects of Physical Activity
(Wiley-Blackwell, Hoboken, 2013)
This paper presents a method for studying between-group differences in physical activity patterns through the analysis of musculo-skeletal stress markers (MSM). The specific aim was to develop a method that could overcome ...
The latest steppe mammoths (Mammuthus trogontherii (Pohlig)) and associated fauna on the Late Middle Pleistocene steppe at Nosak, Kostolac Basin, Northeastern Serbia
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, Oxford, 2015)
In 2012, bones and tusks of mammoths and remains of other large mammals scattered in a line 130 m long have been discovered in the loess deposits at the Nosak mound in the Kostolac Basin (Northeastern Serbia). Preliminary ...
On-site and off-site inwestern Serbia: A geoarchaeological perspective of Obrovac-type settlements
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, Oxford, 2017)
The end of Neolithic is in western Serbia marked with a specific type of sites not known in other parts of the central Balkan area. These are small tell-like mounds, usually up to 50 m in diameter, called Obrovactype ...
Crvena Stijena revisited: The Late Mousterian assemblages
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, Oxford, 2017)
Crvena Stijena represents one of the key Middle Paleolithic sites in southeastern Europe. In the course of earlier investigations, the upper part of the Mousterian sequence was excavated on two occasions: in 1956 and 1958 ...
New data on the earliest European ruminant (Mammalia, Artiodactyla): A revision of the fossil mandible from Rusce in the Pčinja basin (late Eocene, Southeastern Serbia)
(Coquina Press, 2018)
A fragmented right branch of a ruminant mandible from Rusce (Pčinja basin, Serbia) was originally published in the first half the twentieth century as Micromeryx flourensianus, a small ruminant common in the middle Miocene ...
A re-examination of the human fossil specimen from Bački Petrovac (Serbia)
(Elsevier GmbH, 2014)
A fragmented human calotte was discovered during the early 1950s near Bački Petrovac (Serbia), in association with Palaeolithic stone tools. After its initial publication, the fossil specimen remained largely unknown outside ...
Revising the hypodigm of Homo heidelbergensis: A view from the Eastern Mediterranean
(ElsevierInternational Union for Quaternary Research, 2018)
The hominin mandible BH-1 from the Middle Pleistocene cave of Mala Balanica suggested the possibility that human populations in this part of the continent were not subject to the process of Neanderthalization observed in ...
Cave bears (Carnivora, Ursidae) from the Middle and late Pleistocene of Serbia: A revision
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, Oxford, 2014)
Cave bear remains are known from 36 caves and other karst features, and from one open-air site in Serbia. The sites vary greatly by their morphology and size, position, altitude, stratigraphy and diversity of the fossil ...
Pottery versus sediment: Optically stimulated luminescence dating of the Neolithic Vinca culture, Serbia
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, Oxford, 2017)
Optically stimulated luminescence (OSL) dating was applied to the Neolithic Vinca culture's type-site, Vinca Belo-Brdo, to establish best protocols for routine luminescence dating of similar Holocene sites, critical in ...
The Janda cavity at Fruska Gora, the first cave assemblage from the southeast Pannonian lowland (Vojvodina, Serbia)
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, Oxford, 2014)
The recently discovered Janda cavity yielded the first large mammal fossil assemblage of the Late Pleistocene age in the southeast Pannonian lowland (Vojvodina), outside the karst region of Serbia. The cavity is formed in ...
