Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Conversations in Human Evolution is an ongoing science communication initiative seeking to explore the breadth and interdisciplinarity of human evolution studies. This volume reports another twenty interviews (referred to as 'conversations' as they are informal in style) with scholars at the…forefront of human evolution research, covering the broad scientific themes of Palaeolithic archaeology, palaeoanthropology and biological anthropology, earth science and palaeoclimatic change, evolutionary anthropology and primatology, and human disease co-evolution. This project features academics at various different stages in their careers and from all over the world; in this volume alone, researchers are based at institutions in eleven different countries (namely Iran, India, the United Kingdom, Greece, Australia, South Africa, the United States of America, the Netherlands, Germany, France and Israel), covering five continents. Having arisen at the start of the COVID19 pandemic, Conversations in Human Evolution aims to encourage engagement with both human evolutionary studies and the broader socio-political issues that persist within academia, the latter of which is particularly pertinent during this time of global uncertainty. The conversations delve deeply into the study of our species' evolutionary history through the lens of each sub-discipline, as well as detailing some of the most current advances in research, theory and methods. Overall, Conversations in Human Evolution seeks to bridge the gap between the research and researcher through contextualisation of the science with personal experience and historical reflection.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - El tesoro de Regina Turdulorum (Casas de Reina, Badajoz) se compone de 818 antoninianos de imitacion, fundamentalmente del tipo Divo Claudio, acunados en cobre. La inmensa mayoria de las monedas tiene en el reverso la caracteristica leyenda CONSECRATIO. Esta cifra convierte al tesoro de Regin…a Turdulorum como de los mas importantes en Espana y Portugal. A nivel numismatico, la tipologia de reverso mas comun es la de pira funeraria, frente a la de aguila. Junto a este principal grupo se anade otro segundo, donde hay curiosas imitaciones que siguen varios prototipos para la confeccion de los reversos. El lector debe ser consciente que el estudio de las acunaciones postumas de Claudio II y sus imitaciones representa una de las tareas mas complejas en numismatica antigua. La labor se complica considerablemente por el hecho de ser monedas muy copiadas, de tal modo que las emisiones regulares son muy dificiles de distinguir de las imitaciones. En este sentido, el tesoro aporta una informacion vital para la circulacion monetaria occidental del Imperio Romano, contribuyendo al debate de las imitaciones galas y africanas. Y abriendo paso a la hipotesis de que Hispania posiblemente fue otro centro emisor de imitaciones divoclaudianas. Aunque esto ultimo estaria por demostrarse, el caracter provisional y abierto de este libro brinda la oportunidad de abrir nuevas lineas de estudio, con la esperanza de que se resuelvan mas pronto que tarde.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - On his death, Arthur Boucot (1924-2017) left an unfinished manuscript in which he surveyed the skeletal, behavioural, and cultural changes that have characterized Homo from its first recognition in the Late Pliocene to the present. The subjects he treated were as varied as the preparation of…food for infants, the length of intestines, hafting, plastering, use of flint and metals, the domestication of grains and animals, and the prevalence of parasitic diseases. His text repeatedly notes the difficulties imposed by the enormous gaps in both fossil and archaeological records. Boucot deduced a continuity in basic human behaviours from the Oldowan and Acheulian into modern forms, and made a point of including Neandertals and Denisovans. But he also pointed out that morphological changes in successive species of Homo do not coincide in time with major changes in lithic technologies. Boucot concluded that a quantum evolutionary gap separates hominins from the great apes: that members of our line were sapient and had been using language long before they became sapiens. In his text he also indicates his concern for changes to the environment wrought by human activities. The results of this late-life effort, edited after his death, provide a heavily referenced sourcebook for future workers in diverse fields.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Burials and Society in Late Chalcolithic and Early Bronze Age Ireland describes and analyses the increasing complexity of later Chalcolithic and Early Bronze Age burial in Ireland, using burial complexity as a proxy for increasing social complexity, and as a tool for examining social structur…e. The book commences with a discussion of theoretical approaches to the study of burials in both anthropology and archaeology and continues with a summary of the archaeological and environmental background to the Irish Chalcolithic and Early Bronze Age. Then a set of criteria for identifying different types of social organisation is proposed, before an in-depth examination of the radiocarbon chronology of Irish Single Burials, which leads to a multifaceted statistical analysis of the Single Burial Tradition burial utilising descriptive and multivariate statistical approaches. A chronological model of the Irish Chalcolithic and Early Bronze Age is then presented which provides the basis for a discussion of increasing burial and social complexity in Ireland over this period, proposing an evolution from an egalitarian society in the later Chalcolithic Period through to a prestige goods chiefdom emerging around 1900 BC. It is suggested that the decline of copper production at Ross Island, Co. Cork after 2000 BC may have led to a 'copper crisis' which would have been a profoundly disrupting event, destroying the influence of copper miners and shifting power to copper workers, and those who controlled them. This would have provided a stimulus towards the centralisation of power and the emergence of a ranked social hierarchy. The effects of this 'copper crisis' would have been felt in Britain also, where much Ross Island copper was consumed and may have led to similar developments, with the emergence of the Wessex Culture a similar response in Britain to the same stimulus.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Crimes in the Past: Archaeological and Anthropological Evidence aims to discuss the possible examples of crimes in the archaeological past, their detection and interpretation with the help of modern scientific methods, and how interdisciplinary approaches can be conducted in further research…concerning 'crimes of the past.' The idea to create this publication was born after organizing Session #169 Past Crimes during the 25th Annual Meeting of the European Association of Archaeologists (EAA 2019) in Bern. In this book, readers will find cases of historic and prehistoric 'crimes scenes' known from various contexts, including the findings of (pre)historic (mass) graves and lethal violent acts related to warfare, ritual killings, or possible murder cases. In order to get to the bottom of the possible archaeological crime scenes, contemporary interdisciplinary approaches will be used, which allow us to extend the frames of classical archaeological study.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Spectacle and Display: A Modern History of Britain's Roman Mosaic Pavements is the first narrative to explore responses and attitudes to mosaics, not just at the point of discovery but during their subsequent history. It is a field which has received scant attention in the literature and prov…ides a compelling insight into the agency of these spectacular remains. Analysis shows how mosaics have influenced and have been instrumental in the commodification of the past, the development of conservation practice and promoting the rise of the archaeologist. 'The most spectacular remains of Roman Britain' is a familiar description applied to the discovery of mosaics floors. They are exceptional symbols of Roman life in the province of Britannia and each new discovery is eagerly reported in the press. Yet one estimate suggested that 75% of all known mosaics from Britain have been lost, and they are commonly displayed out of context, wall mounted as artwork in museums and exhibitions and far from their role as floors. This is a contested narrative in which spectacle and survival, conservation and fine art, ownership and curation provide the discourse and texts of contemporary attitudes.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Pits and Boots derives from excavations carried out in 2007-8, in advance of an extension to the Bon Accord Centre in Aberdeen, that uncovered the backlands of an area that would have formed part of the industrial quarter of the medieval town. The site is well-dated by dendrochronology, augme…nted by artefactual evidence, and indicates activity from the late 12th century AD into the early modern period, with a particularly intensive period in the 13th century. Structural evidence consists primarily of the backland boundaries, hearth/ovens, several wood-lined wells and many large pits. It is the contents of these pits and wells which forms the core of this monograph. The waterlogged conditions within the pits and wells has meant that a remarkable assemblage of organic remains including leather, wooden artefacts, textiles, animal pelts, fibres, and cordage has survived. The leather assemblage is the largest ever to be found in Scotland and has revealed a range of activities associated with the use of animal hides, from hide processing to tanning and shoemaking. The wood assemblage is also extensive and includes bowls, platters, coopered vessels and tools. Metalwork, crucibles, clay mould fragments and ceramics all testify to the industrial nature of the area, while the large quantities of animal and fishbone demonstrate that butchery on an industrial scale took place in the area. The excavation charts the changing nature of this once-peripheral area of Aberdeen, from an industrial zone in the medieval period, to horticultural and domestic spaces in post-medieval times, and has thus greatly enhanced our knowledge of Scottish urban development.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Ce livre presente l'ensemble de ceramiques fines (sigillees, lampes et parois fines) d'Ammaia, une ville d'epoque romaine et tardo-romaine, situee dans l'hinterland de la region meridionale de la Lusitania (actuellement dans le territoire portugais). Malgre la distance de la cote atlantique,…Ammaia a profite de sa proximite avec Augusta Emerita, la capitale de la provincia de la Lusitania. Cet aspect est particulierement important entre c.50 et c.150 apr. J.-C., quand le marche local a importe de grandes quantites de ceramiques fines de la capitale. La phase de l'Antiquite Tardive demontre une importation equilibree a Ammaia, dont les ceramiques fines, essentiellement formees par des sigillees, sont fournies par les productions du Nord de l'Hispania (les vallees du Douro et de l'Ebre) et l'Afrique du Nord. En plus, la recherche plus recente a Ammaia a livre d'excellents contextes dates entre c.50 et c.150 apr. J.-C., un aspect crucial pour la comprehension de l'evolution chronologique de la sigillee italique, sud-gallique et hispanique. Dans le dernier chapitre, l'auteur met en place une analyse a large spectre de la Lusitania meridionale, par rapport a la consommation de ceramiques fines et d'amphores. Quelques phases chronologiques furent etablies, basees sur l'evidence stratigraphique et typologique, pour la periode entre c. 50 et c. 550 apr. J.-C., c'est-a-dire le Haut-Empire (a partir de la periode claudio-neronienne) et sa transition vers la periode romaine tardive et la phase post-romaine. Au cours des derniers sous-chapitres, cette analyse se concentre sur les problematiques du Ve siecle, jusqu'a la derniere evidence stratigraphique lusitanienne, au milieu du VIe siecle.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Tonina fue una ciudad maya, localizada entre dos areas culturales hacia los Altos de Chiapas. Se ha planteado de manera generalizada que el colapso maya implico la desaparicion y despoblamiento de muchas ciudades; en esta investigacion se aborda la pervivencia de Tonina hacia el umbral del Po…sclasico. Para ello se analizaron 15 956 huesos humanos hallados en la Estructura 15 de la quinta plataforma en la Acropolis de Tonina. El analisis de osteologia antropologica permitio conocer el perfil biologico y documentar la tafonomia cultural, a traves de la cual se evidencio la practica del sacrificio humano y los tratamientos postumos de las victimas. Asi tambien la aplicacion de analisis de isotopos estables y de estroncio permitio conocer el perfil dietario de los sacrificados, su origen geografico y movilidad a lo largo de su vida. Se vislumbro un cambio en las practicas rituales en el area maya, al encontrar influencias ideologicas posiblemente de la Costa del Golfo en el culto a otras deidades, es el caso de Xipe Totec; la Costa del Golfo tuvo gran influencia en el area maya desde tiempos remotos y se ha constatado en este sitio a traves de la ceramica.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Tres usurpadores godos is a study of three famous usurpations of the Visigothic period. It first examines the nature of the uprising of Prince Hermenegild (579-585), the civil war and the complex political context of the time, as well as the important implications of the conflict. The second…study deals with the rebellion of Duke Argimundo at the beginning of the reign of Recaredo and the consequences it had on the newly conquered Suebi kingdom. A prominent member of the Aula Regia and doge prouinciae, Argimundus started a rebellion in the province of Gallaecia that could have ruined the political endeavours of Leovigild and Recaredo. Finally, it analyses the figure of Duke Theudemirus, one of the great magnates of the kingdom of Toledo at the end of the 7th century, his actions within the complicated Visigothic political situation and the role he played in the transmission of power between Visigoths and Arabs after the fall of the kingdom of Toledo.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Il culto delle reliquie, incentivato tra gli altri dall'imperatore Costantino, da papa Damaso e dai vescovi Ambrogio di Milano e Paolino di Nola, ha determinato la trasformazione del paesaggio italiano tardoantico, delle aree suburbane in particolare. Il processo di graduale valorizzazione de…lle tombe martiriali, infatti, condusse alla nascita di estesi santuari, generalmente composti da edifi ci funerari e cultuali, oltre che da strutture di servizio, alloggi per pellegrini e monasteri. I santuari piu importanti, come quelli dei santi Pietro in Vaticano, Paolo sull'Ostiense, Erasmo a Formia, Alessandro a Nomentum, Felice a Cimitile, Gennaro a Napoli, Felice a Venosa, Marciano a Siracusa, nonche degli Apostoli a Concordia Sagittaria, divennero cosi popolari da giustifi care la locuzione di Girolamo: movetur urbs sedibus suis et currit ad martyrum tumulos. Tra V e VI secolo i santuari si diff usero anche in aree rurali, di solito lungo importanti percorsi viari, come documenta il sito di San Canzian d'Isonzo. Analizzando contesti ipogei e subdiali, il volume delinea l'evoluzione degli spazi santifi cati da reliquie, in un processo che porto le tombe venerate a divenire dapprima memoriae, quindi luoghi di culto e infi ne articolati santuari. Per la prima volta nella storia degli studi, i contesti di Roma sono messi organicamente a confronto con quelli del resto d'Italia.
