  • Camels, Donkeys and Caravan Trade: an Emerging Context from Baraqish
    Camels, donkeys and caravan trade: an emerging context from Baraqish,- ancient Yathill (Wadi- - al-Jawf, Yemen) Francesco G. FEDELE Laboratorio di Antropologia, Università di Napoli ‘Federico II’, Naples, Italy (retired), current address: via Foligno 78/10, 10149 Torino (Italy) [email protected] Fedele F. G. 2014. — Camels, donkeys and caravan trade: an emerging context from Bara¯qish, ancient Yathill (Wa-di al-Jawf, Yemen). Anthropozoologica 49 (2): 177-194. http:// dx.doi.org/10.5252/az2014n2a02. ABSTRACT Work at Barāqish/Yathill in 2005-06 has produced sequences encompassing the Sabaean (13th-6th centuries BC) and Minaean/Arab (c. 550 BC-AD 1) occupa- tions. Abundant animal remains were retrieved and contexts of use and discard were obtained. Camels and donkeys are studied together as pack animals, the camel being the domestic dromedary. Their zooarchaeological and contextual study at Yathill is justified from this city’s location on the famous frankincense caravan route of the 1st millennium BC. An extramural stratigraphic sequence documenting the relationships between the city and the adjoining plain from c. 820 BC to the Islamic era was investigated to the northwest of the Minaean KEY WORDS wall. Domestic camels were present by 800 BC, the earliest well-documented Dromedary (Camelus occurrence in Yemen; wild dromedary herds were still in the area during the dromedarius), Camelus sp. wild, 7th century and perhaps later. The study of the archaeological context links donkey (Equus asinus), these Sabaean-age camels to campsites possibly formed by non-residents. This caravan trade, archaeological indicators pattern greatly developed during the Minaean period, with trade-jar handling of ‘caravan’ activity, posts outside the walled city and frequent stationing of camels and donkeys on ‘frankincense route’ in the upper talus.

  • Chapter 15 the Mammals of Angola
    Chapter 15 The Mammals of Angola Pedro Beja, Pedro Vaz Pinto, Luís Veríssimo, Elena Bersacola, Ezequiel Fabiano, Jorge M. Palmeirim, Ara Monadjem, Pedro Monterroso, Magdalena S. Svensson, and Peter John Taylor Abstract Scientific investigations on the mammals of Angola started over 150 years ago, but information remains scarce and scattered, with only one recent published account. Here we provide a synthesis of the mammals of Angola based on a thorough survey of primary and grey literature, as well as recent unpublished records. We present a short history of mammal research, and provide brief information on each species known to occur in the country. Particular attention is given to endemic and near endemic species. We also provide a zoogeographic outline and information on the conservation of Angolan mammals. We found confirmed records for 291 native species, most of which from the orders Rodentia (85), Chiroptera (73), Carnivora (39), and Cetartiodactyla (33). There is a large number of endemic and near endemic species, most of which are rodents or bats. The large diversity of species is favoured by the wide P.

  • The Quagga and Science. Studies on This Extinct Zebra Have Twice Had Major Impacts on Science. What Does Its Future Hold?
    The Quagga and Science. Peter Heywood, Department of Molecular Biology, Cell Biology, and Biochemistry, Brown University, Providence, RI 02906. Email: [email protected] Studies on this extinct zebra have twice had major impacts on science. What does its future hold? ABSTRACT. Quaggas, partially striped zebras from South Africa, have had major impacts on science. In the nineteenth century, the results of mating between a quagga stallion and a horse mare influenced thinking about mechanisms of inheritance for more than seventy years. In the twentieth century, tissue from a quagga yielded the first DNA of an extinct organism to be cloned and sequenced. Selective breeding of plains zebras in South Africa has produced animals whose coat coloration resembles that of some quaggas. This raises the intriguing possibility that quaggas may once again be the focus of scientific investigations. Quaggas had a striking appearance: the face, neck and the anterior part of their bodies had white stripes like zebras, however, unlike other zebras their legs were not striped. The remainder of the quagga and the background color in the areas with white stripes was a brownish color – sometimes described as light brown, reddish-brown or yellowish-brown In 1758 Linnaeus created the genus Equus to include horses, donkeys, and zebras, and gave the binomial name E. zebra to the Cape mountain zebra. This was one of three zebras occurring in South Africa, the others being the plains zebra or Burchell’s zebra, E. burchelli and the quagga, E. quagga. The species name, quagga, was the common name for this zebra and is onomatopoeic: it was the sound of the zebra’s barking cry of kwa-ha (the letters “g” are pronounced as “h”).
