Titre: 'Go(a)t milk?' New perspectives on the zooarchaeological evidence for the earliest intensification of dairying in south eastern Europe Auteur:Greenfield, Haskel J; Arnold, Elizabeth R Sujet:Milking ; Balkans ; Neolithic ; Domestic Livestock ; Secondary Products ; Zooarchaeology ; Anthropology ; History & Archaeology Description:
The origins of secondary product exploitation for domestic livestock, in particular milking, is a long-standing debate in archaeology. This paper re-analyses zooarchaeological age-at-death data from the central Balkans of south eastern Europe to demonstrate that the earliest intensive milking in this region probably occurred through the exploitation of goats, and not cattle or sheep, and that they were exploited in this manner from the beginning of the Neolithic. The analyses also suggest that there is a change in cattle and sheep exploitation patterns beginning during the Eneolithic, when secondary product exploitation becomes visible in age-at-death patterns, which can be interpreted as an increased scale of secondary products exploitation. This proposal is congruent with the ceramic lipid and zooarchaeological data from the region and has larger implications for understanding and identifying the origins of milking throughout the Old World.

Titre: Domestic cattle mobility in early farming villages in southern Africa: harvest profiles and strontium ( 87 Sr/ 86 Sr) isotope analyses from Early Iron Age sites in the lower Thukela River Valley of South Africa Auteur:Arnold, Elizabeth; Greenfield, Haskel; Creaser, Robert Sujet:Transhumance ; Mobility ; Strontium isotope analysis ; Domestic animals ; Zooarchaeology ; South Africa ; Early Iron Age Description:
Several researchers have suggested that Early Iron Age (i.e., first millennium ad ) farmers in the mountainous valleys along the southeastern seaboard of southern Africa moved their livestock in a transhumant or seasonal fashion between grazing areas in order to take advantage of differentiation in availability of pasture. Until now, there have been no data to systematically test this hypothesis. This study presents new zooarchaeological and preliminary strontium isotope data from the Early Iron Age sites of Ndondondwane, Mamba I and Wosi in the lower Thukela River Valley of South Africa. Harvest profiles of domestic stock suggest that herds were present year-round in the valley bottom, despite the advantages of a transhumant pastoral system. In order to resolve the discrepancy between the harvest profiles and the expected mobility patterns, a pilot isotopic study collected modern baseline strontium data in an effort to establish the local valley signature. The isotopic signatures from the zooarchaeological cattle specimens from the three sites show variation between sites, which is indicative of both limited and variable patterns of mobility throughout the valley. In addition, the strontium data suggest that some cattle may have been moved through social and/or economic exchanges from outside the valley.

Titre: Evaluating competition and conflict among western Ukraine Neolithic farmers with stable isotope analyses of human teeth Auteur:Madden, Gwyn; Arnold, Elizabeth R; Karsten, Jordan; Ambrose, Stanley H Sujet:History & Archaeology Description:
•Evidence of violence in Verteba Cave is pervasive, with a frequency of trauma of 57% of human crania.•Strontium isotopes suggest Ukraine as an origin for the Verteba Cave humans, supporting the hypothesis that the individuals were locally born and not immigrants.•Strontium, carbon, and oxygen isotopes of Verteba Cave humans show all individuals were eating similar diets.

Titre: Absolute age and tooth eruption and wear sequences in sheep and goat: determining age-at-death in zooarchaeology using a modern control sample Auteur:Greenfield, Haskel J; Arnold, Elizabeth R Sujet:Ageing ; Harvest Profile ; Tooth Eruption and Wear ; Zooarchaeology ; Ageing ; Harvest Profile ; Tooth Eruption and Wear ; Zooarchaeology ; History & Archaeology Description:
This paper seeks to improve our understanding of the relationship between mandibular tooth eruption and wear sequences and absolute age in modern sheep and goat. While the relationship between tooth eruption and wear and absolute age has been investigated for primitive breeds in parts of the Old World, our pilot study extends the applicability of this research to modern breeds and to another geographic region (North America). A modern control sample of two species of domestic caprines – Ovis aries (sheep) and Capra hircus (goats) from Manitoba, Canada – are used to evaluate the two major systems for analyzing mandibular tooth wear and eruption (Payne and Grant) and for assigning an absolute age-at-death. In order to compare the two systems, an absolute age for Grant's Mandibular Wear Stages was established for the first time, previously demonstrated only for Payne's system. The analysis confirmed that there is a very high correlation between the known age and estimated...
