The Approximate Bayesian Computation approach to reconstructing population dynamics and size from settlement data: demography of the Mesolithic-Neolithic transition at Lepenski Vir
(Springer Heidelberg, Heidelberg, 2016)
Demographic aspects of prehistoric populations have an important role in current archaeological theory and empirical research. In this study, we develop a method to estimate population dynamics and population size and apply ...
Last hunters-first farmers: new insight into subsistence strategies in the Central Balkans through multi-isotopic analysis
(Springer Heidelberg, Heidelberg, 2019)
This paper presents new results of stable isotope analysis made on human and animal bones from Mesolithic-Neolithic sites (9500-5200calBC) in the Central Balkans. It reconstructs dietary practices in the Mesolithic and ...
Sequential Incisions on a Cave Bear Bone from the Middle Paleolithic of Peturina Cave, Serbia
(Springer, New York, 2018)
We present the detailed analysis of a cervical vertebra from a cave bear, found at Peturina cave, Serbia, in a Mousterian archaeological level dated by radiocarbon at 43.5-44.6 kyr cal BP, and by ESR to between 93.5 and ...
Sulphur isotope evidence for freshwater fish consumption: a case study from the Danube Gorges, SE Europe
(Academic Press Ltd- Elsevier Science Ltd, London, 2010)
To explore the use of sulphur Isotopes as an indicator of the consumption of freshwater fish, we undertook sulphur isotope analysis on bone collagen extracted from humans and animals from five archaeological sites from the ...
Natural environment and resources, and the long life of the Neolithic settlement at Vina, southeast Europe
(Springer Heidelberg, Heidelberg, 2019)
The Neolithic settlement in Vina near Belgrade, Serbia, was occupied for more than a millennium (c. 5600-4500calBC); from about 5200calBC the occupation, associated with the regional Vina culture phenomenon, was uninterrupted. ...
The goodness of fit and statistical significance of seriation solutions
(Academic Press Ltd- Elsevier Science Ltd, London, 2013)
This paper presents a method for determining the statistical significance and goodness of fit of seriation solutions based on correspondence analysis. The basic assumption is that seriation solutions corresponding to ...
Assessing continuity in the ancestral territory of the Tsleil-Waututh-Coast Salish, southwest British Columbia, Canada
(Academic Press Inc Elsevier Science, San Diego, 2018)
Archaeological interpretations of continuity and abandonment can have significant implications for descendent communities. Such interpretations are contingent on the social and spatial scale of analysis. We assess the ...
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 ...
Fishing with lure hooks at the Late Neolithic site of Vinca - Belo Brdo, Serbia
(Academic Press Ltd- Elsevier Science Ltd, London, 2016)
The authors present an early evidence for the use of complex fishing techniques for obtaining variable fish resources in prehistoric south-east Europe as recovered at the Neolithic site of Vinta Belo Brdo in Serbia. In ...
Cannibalism versus funerary defleshing and disarticulation after a period of decay: comparisons of bone modifications from four prehistoric sites
(Wiley, Hoboken, 2016)
Objectives: Humanly induced modifications on human and non-human bones from four archaeological sites of known funerary rituals (one interpreted as cannibalism and three interpreted as funerary defleshing and disarticulation ...
