The total number of reference sequences, retrieved from public databases or produced locally (number in parenthesis) is indicated for each marker. The identification of the species following our metabarcoding analysis is indicated in the columns “detected”, for each of the two markers used. Whenever possible, individual DNA was tested for amplification bias for COI. The results are reported in the last column with “yes” meaning that no (or weak) amplification was visible for the COI marker, and “no” meaning that amplification was visible (see figure S3). No bias was observed for the 18S marker.

A set of 294 sequences for the 18S marker, representing 254 species across 41 families within our four classes of interest were gathered from the SILVA public database. Some of these sequences were multiplied to mimic the variations in abundance which could be observed in a real dataset (between 1 and 130 sequences for each species). Sequencing was simulated using ART (Huang et al. 2012) and the quality profile of our real dataset was applied to the artificial one. The pipeline described above was applied to the 15,480 produced reads, and the obiclean tool was used several times with different values of –d (number of differences allowed for a read to be considered as an error produced from a variant) and –r (ratio between the abundance of two variants below which the less abundant one will be discarded). All variants passing the filtering process were then compared to the 294 starting sequences using BLAST®, and assigned to a species name when matching with more than 99% query cover and 100% identity. The number of species not retrieved (representing reads wrongly considered as errors) is shown in A, and the number of unassigned variants (representing undetected errors) is shown in B for the three values of –d and the five values of –r tested.

Over the last decades, Cystoseira s.l. sufered from a severe loss as a result of multiple anthropogenic stressors. In particular, Gongolaria barbata has faced multiple human‑induced threats, and, despite its ecological importance in structuring rocky communities and hosting a large number of species, the natural recovery of G. barbata depleted populations is uncertain. Here, we used nine microsatellite loci specifcally developed for G. barbata to assess the genetic diversity of this species and its genetic connectivity among ffteen sites located in the Ionian, the Adriatic and the Black Seas. In line with strong and signifcant heterozygosity defciencies across loci, likely explained by Wahlund efect, high genetic structure was observed among the three seas (ENA corrected FST = 0.355, IC = [0.283, 0.440]), with an estimated dispersal distance per generation smaller than 600 m, both in the Adriatic and Black Sea. This strong genetic structure likely results from restricted gene fow driven by geographic distances and limited dispersal abilities, along with genetic drift within isolated populations. The presence of genetically disconnected populations at small spatial scales (< 10 km) has important implications for the identifcation of relevant conservation and management measures for G.

  • Special Issue: Personal Ornaments in Early Prehistory Upper Paleolithic
    Special Issue: Personal Ornaments in Early Prehistory Upper Paleolithic Explorers: The Geographic Sources of Shell Beads in Early Upper Paleolithic Assemblages in Israel DANIELLA E. BAR-YOSEF MAYER The Steinhardt Museum of Natural History and Institute of Archaeology, Tel Aviv University, Tel Aviv 69978, ISRAEL; and, Peabody Museum of Archaeology and Ethnology, Harvard University, Cambridge, MA 02138, USA; [email protected] submitted: 18 January 2018; accepted 13 October 2018 ABSTRACT The Upper Paleolithic occupation levels of Kebara and Manot caves (Mt. Carmel and Western Galilee, respective- ly, both in Israel) contain both Ahmarian and Aurignacian cultural remains, the former being a locally developed culture, and the latter an intrusion from Europe. The molluscan assemblages from the two sites contain both local and foreign elements. The local elements are mostly beads made of Columbella rustica and Tritia gibbosula shells. A comparison of Upper Paleolithic shell bead assemblages of Levantine sites to Aurignacian assemblages in Europe suggests that while most of the shells are Mediterranean species, it is nonetheless possible to distinguish between the local Ahmarian traditions in personal ornaments, and those which were brought or influenced by the Aurigna- cian traditions. Specifically, a few shell beads such as Tritia mutabilis and Ocinebrina edwardsii, might have been imported from sites in Western Europe, and likewise the scaphopods seem to be present as a result of Aurignacian influences (either brought from Europe or collected along the Levant coast). Furthermore, in a few cases shells were originally collected in distant locations. One Euplica festiva, from the Red Sea Shore found at Kebara Cave may have been collected by Ahmarians and exchanged with Aurignacians.

  • 84. Role of Personal Ornaments: Vlakno Cave (Croatia)
    Social Relations, Communication, Mobility 84. Role of personal ornaments: Vlakno cave (Croatia) Barbara Cvitkušić and Dario Vujević In an attempt to understand the culture and social behaviour of Mesolithic populations, personal ornaments are of particular importance. Personal ornaments in their formal expressions (marine gastropods and bivalves, freshwater gastropods, modified animal bones, and teeth) not only point to the universal idea of decoration and aesthetic sensibility, but also reveal mutual contacts and communication pathways. Vlakno cave on the island of Dugi Otok (Croatia) is one of the most prominent Late Pleistocene/Early Holocene sites discovered in Dalmatia recently. Research here has been conducted since 2004 with some interruptions, and a depth of 5 m was achieved in 2013, reaching the layers belonging to the Early Epigravettian. In the large assemblage of ornamental finds that come from different strata, it is possible to recognize changes over time regarding the type and frequency of finds. Perforated animal teeth, mostly deer canines, are gradually replaced by marine gastropods and bivalves. So far, almost 400 specimens of body ornaments have been found, along with numerous unperforated marine gastropods, making Vlakno cave one of the richest archaeological sites in personal ornaments on the eastern Adriatic coast.

  • Personal Ornaments in Early Prehistory Taking Beads Seriously
    Special Issue: Personal Ornaments in Early Prehistory Taking Beads Seriously: Prehistoric Forager Ornamental Traditions in Southeastern Europe DUŠAN BORIĆ The Italian Academy for Advanced Studies in America, Columbia University, 1161 Amsterdam Avenue, New York City, NY 10027, USA; [email protected]; [email protected] EMANUELA CRISTIANI DANTE Laboratory for Diet and Ancient Technology Studies, Sapienza University of Rome, Via Caserta 6, 00161 Rome, ITALY; [email protected] submitted: 7 June 2018; accepted 30 November 2018 ABSTRACT Ornaments are polysemic objects due to different meanings they convey in human societies—self-embellishment, means of exchange, markers of age and gender, indicators of social status, signs of power, non-verbal means of expression and communication. Beads have a privileged place in shedding light on the origins of modern cogni- tion in human societies. While archaeological approaches to ancient symbolism have often been concerned with behavioral modernity of our species, anthropological studies have underlined the role of ornaments in the con- struction of personhood, identity, and social networks in traditional societies. Exploring an approach informed by anthropological and ethnographic theory, we discuss Paleolithic and Meso- lithic bodily adornments found across southeastern Europe. We present a review of the evidence for long-term regional and diachronic differences and similarities in types of body adornment among prehistoric foragers of the region. Here we look at aspects of cultural transmission and transferability over time. This enables us to recon- struct a series of gestures involved in ornament manufacture and use, and to examine transmissions of technologi- cal know-hows, shifting aesthetic values, and demands for specific local and non-local materials, including marine shells transferred across this region over long distances (>400km).
