The article discusses a terracotta lamp in the shape of a gladiator's helmet that was discovered inside the Viminacium amphitheatre. It was found near architectural structures probably devoted to a gladiatorial cult practice. ...
New ams c-14 dates for human remains from stone age sites in the iron gates reach of the Danube, southeast europe
(Univ Arizona Dept Geosciences, Tucson, 2015)
Archaeological investigations in the Iron Gates reach of the Lower Danube Valley between 1964 and 1984 revealed an important concentration of Stone Age sites, which together provide the most detailed record of Mesolithic ...
Eucladoceros montenegrensis n. sp and other Cervidae from the Lower Pleistocene of Trlica (Montenegro)

The end of the affair: formal chronological modelling for the top of the Neolithic tell of Vinca-Belo Brdo
(Cambridge Univ Press, Cambridge, 2015)
Bayesian statistical frameworks have been used to calculate explicit, quantified estimates for site chronologies, and have been especially useful for resolving the complex probability distributions of calibrated radiocarbon ...
Exploring the Effects of Assemblage Accumulation on Diversity and Innovation Rate Estimates in Neutral, Conformist, and Anti-Conformist Models of Cultural Transmission
(Springer, New York, 2015)
Recent research has shown that accumulation and time averaging can affect the neutrality tests used in evolutionary archaeology. This study builds upon this line of research and explores the effects of assemblage accumulation ...
