  • Neogene and Quaternary Mammal Faunas of Thessaly*
    NEOGENE AND QUATERNARY MAMMAL FAUNAS OF THESSALY* by A. ATHANASSIOU ** I. INTRODUCTION The Province of Thessaly is situated in Central Greece. It is a mainly plain geographical area (the most extensive low relief area in the Greek peninsula), delimited in the North by Olympus Mountain, in the West by Pfndos mountain range, in the East by the Aegean Sea and in the South by Orthrys mountain range. Alluvial deposits that form extensive plains cover most of the eastern and central part of the region. A hill range made of tertiary gravel beds and directed NW-SE, divides these plains into two regions: the plain of Larissa in the East and the plain of Trfkala-Kardftsa in the West. Two smaller basins, those of Volos and Almyros, extend in SE Thessaly. The westernmost part of the province is mountainous, formed by alpine and molassic formations of Mesozoic and Neogene age respectively. In the southwestern part the long peninsula of P61ion Mountain forms the wide and rather closed Pagassetic Gulf. 11. GEOLOGY The Thessalian mountain ranges are placed in the Pelagonic and Pfndos geotectonic zones, which have a NW-SE direction. The Pelagonic is a very wide zone that covers a very extensive area of Northern and Central Greece. It is usually divided to several minor zones, either metamorphic or not. Most of those zones are of Triassic-lurassic age and they are covered by a transgression series that begins in Late Cretaceous (Cenomanian). The stratigraphic columns of the Pelagonic zone consist of Late Palaeozoic and Mesozoic metamorphic, semimetamorphic or sedimentary rocks, as gneiss, amphibolites, slates and limestones.

The lacustrine sediments of Vialette are the result of a dammed lake formed by a basalt flow above Oligocene layers, and show a geological setting typical for this area, where many localities are connected with maar structures that have allowed intra-crateric lacustrine deposits to accumulate. Based on previous studies and this work, a faunal list of 17 species of large mammals has been established.

  • Eastern Georgia and Western Azerbaijan, South Caucasus)
    Synopsis of the terrestrial vertebrate faunas from the Middle Kura Basin (Eastern Georgia and Western Azerbaijan, South Caucasus) MAIA BUKHSIANIDZE and KAKHABER KOIAVA Bukhsianidze, M. and Koiava, K. 2018. Synopsis of the terrestrial vertebrate faunas from the Middle Kura Basin (Eastern Georgia and Western Azerbaijan, South Caucasus). Acta Palaeontologica Polonica 63 (3): 441–461. This paper summarizes knowledge on the Neogene–Quaternary terrestrial fossil record from the Middle Kura Basin accumulated over a century and aims to its integration into the current research. This fossil evidence is essential in understanding the evolution of the Eurasian biome, since this territory is located at the border of Eastern Mediterranean and Central Asian regions. The general biostratigraphic framework suggests existence of two major intervals of the terrestrial fossil record in the area, spanning ca. 10–7 Ma and ca. 3–1 Ma, and points to an important hiatus between the late Miocene and late Pliocene. General aspects of the paleogeographic history and fossil record suggest that the biogeographic role of the Middle Kura Basin has been changing over geological time from a refugium (Khersonian) to a full-fledged part of the Greco-Iranian province (Meotian–Pontian). The dynamic environmental changes during the Quaternary do not depict this territory as a refugium in its general sense. The greatest value of this fossil record is the potential to understand a detailed history of terrestrial life during demise of late Miocene Hominoidea in Eurasia and early Homo dispersal out of Africa. Late Miocene record of the Middle Kura Basin captures the latest stage of the Eastern Paratethys regression, and among other fossils counts the latest and the easternmost occurence of dryopithecine, Udabnopithecus garedziensis, while the almost uninterrupted fossil record of the late Pliocene–Early Pleistocene covers the time interval of the early human occupation of Caucasus and Eurasia.

Only in the interrelationship between the exhibited items and their structures of origin do the exhibits unfold their full expression and may be understood by the non-expert visitor. The virtual visualization of the ancient palaces of Persepolis, the Persepolis3D project, was created for this aim as well as providing a comprehensive image of the ancient palace complex for both professionals and interested laymen alike. Palabras Clave : PERSEPOLIS3D, PERSIAN ARCHITECTURE, VIRTUAL VISUALIZATION Abstract The first systematic and scholarly excavation of Persepolis was conducted by Ernst Herzfeld and Friedrich Krefter which led to the onsite reconstruction of the so- called 'Harem' in 1931. About forty years later, the Harem reconstruction became the basis for Krefter's drawings published in Persepolis-Rekonstruktionen in 1971. Our goal with this virtual reconstruction project is to continue and expand on Krefter's work using modern tools and technology not only to show the different perspectives drawn by Krefter, but also to show Persepolis from every angle and point of view both in pictures and animation with its original materials, lighting, and mood.

  • Reconstructing Life History Traits from Bone Histology in Extant and Fossil Ruminants
    Departament de Biologia Animal Biologia Vegetal i Ecologia Reconstructing life history traits from bone histology in extant and fossil ruminants Memòria presentada per Miren Nekane Marín Moratalla per a optar al títol de Doctor en Biologia, programa de doctorat en Biodiversitat del Departament de Biologia Animal Biologia Vegetal i Ecologia de la Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona, dirigida per: ‐ Dra. Meike Köhler, ICREA a l’Institut Català de Paleontologia Miquel Crusafont i professora associada al Departament d’Ecologia de la Universitat de Barcelona. ‐ Dr. Xavier Jordana, Institut Català de Paleontologia Miquel Crusafont. Dra. Meike Köhler Dr. Xavier Jordana Miren Nekane Marín Moratalla TESI DOCTORAL 2014 ABSTRACT The study of life histories is of special importance because it provides valuable insights into ecological conditions, biodiversity, demography, vulnerability and many other aspects of a species’ biology. Bone histology is a widely used tool to reconstruct vertebrate life histories, either by analysing primary bone tissue or by counting the number of growth marks (skeletochronology). However, it has long been considered that endotherms, unlike ectotherms, display a continuous or noncyclical bone growth, disabling bone histology for life history inferences in mammals. The general purpose of the research presented in this PhD Thesis is to challenge this statement, contributing to the foundations of mammalian bone histology as a tool for inferences on life history strategies. The specific aims are: i) to analyse the reliability of the skeletochronology in mammalian bone, ii) to explore the association of bone tissue features with environment, physiology, ontogeny and life history, and finally iii) to reconstruct life history traits in fossil and living mammals to get insights on life history evolution and conservation biology.

  • A New Early Pleistocene Mammalian Fauna from Burdur Basin, SW Turkey
    Russian J. Theriol. 13(2): 5563 © RUSSIAN JOURNAL OF THERIOLOGY, 2014 A new Early Pleistocene mammalian fauna from Burdur Basin, SW Turkey Fatma Arzu Demirel, Serdar Mayda ABSTRACT. A new Early Pleistocene mammalian locality, referred to as Yassigüme from Burdur Basin of SW Anatolia is reported here for the first time. Here, we describe remains of an equid and bovids, most frequent elements of the fauna, as Equus sp., Gazellospira torticornis, and Leptobos cf. etruscus, all being the first records in Turkey. The coexistence of medium-sized bovine L. etruscus with spiral-horned antelope G. torticornis, and Equus sp. suggests Late Villafranchian age (~1.5 Ma) for Yassigüme. These records fill the gap in the paleobiogeographic range of these taxa in SE Mediterranean during Pleistocene.

  • Late Neogene and Early Quaternary Paleoenvironmental and Paleoclimatic Conditions in Southwestern Europe: Isotopic Analyses on Mammalian Taxa

University of California Santa Cruz, Santa Cruz, California, United States of America, 2 Departamento de Paleontologı´a, Universidad Complutense de Madrid, Madrid, Spain, 3 Departamento de Cambio Medioambiental, Instituto de Geociencias (UCM, CSIC), Madrid, Spain, 4 Department of Earth Sciences. University of Minnesota, Minneapolis, Minnesota, United States of America, 5 Museum of Paleontology, University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, Michigan, United States of America, 6 Departamento de Paleobiologı´a, Museo Nacional de Ciencias Naturales-CSIC, Madrid, Spain Abstract Climatic and environmental shifts have had profound impacts on faunal and floral assemblages globally since the end of the Miocene. We explore the regional expression of these fluctuations in southwestern Europe by constructing long-term records (from ,11.1 to 0.8 Ma, late Miocene–middle Pleistocene) of carbon and oxygen isotope variations in tooth enamel of different large herbivorous mammals from Spain. Isotopic differences among taxa illuminate differences in ecological niches. The d13C values (relative to VPDB, mean 210.361.1%; range 213.0 to 27.4%) are consistent with consumption of C3 vegetation; C4 plants did not contribute significantly to the diets of the selected taxa. When averaged by time interval to examine secular trends, d13C values increase at ,9.5 Ma (MN9–MN10), probably related to the Middle Vallesian Crisis when there was a replacement of vegetation adapted to more humid conditions by vegetation adapted to drier and more seasonal conditions, and resulting in the disappearance of forested mammalian fauna.

  • Gazellospira Torticornis (Aymard, 1854) from the Late Pliocene Locality of Sésklo (Thessaly, Greece) ⅲ
    GAZELLOSPIRA TORTICORNIS (AYMARD, 1854) FROM THE LATE PLIOCENE LOCALITY OF SÉSKLO (THESSALY, GREECE) Ⅲ Athanassios ATHANASSIOU1 ABSTRACT The locality of Sésklo (E. Thessaly, Greece) has yielded an interesting fossil fauna of Late Pliocene age (MNQ17). The Bovids are the most frequent elements, comprising mainly the genera Gazella and Gazellospira. The sample of Gazellospira torticornis is described in this study. Its morphology and dimensions are typical, showing no considerable differences in comparison to the Western European samples. Key words: Pliocene, Artiodactyla, Bovidae, Gazellospira, Thessaly, Greece. RESUMÉ GAZELLOSPIRA TORTICORNIS (AYMARD, 1854) DE LA LOCALITÉ PLIOCÈNE SUPÉRIEUR DE SÉSKLO (THESSALIE, GRÈCE) La localité de Sésklo a livré une faune intéressante d’âge Pliocène supérieur (MNQ17). Les Bovidés sont les éléments les plus fréquents. Il s’agit principalement de Gazella et de Gazellospira. L’échantillon de Gazellospira torticornis est décrit dans l’article présent. Comparé avec les échantillons d’Europe occidentale, aucune différence morphologique ou dimensionnelle n’est décelable. Mots-clés : Pliocène, Artiodactyles, Bovidé, Gazellospira, Thessalie, Grèce. INTRODUCTION The fossil fauna of Sésklo is already described in other papers (Symeonidis & Tataris, 1983; Symeonidis, 1992; Athanassiou, 1996; Kostopoulos & Athanassiou, The locality of Sésklo (Magnesia, Thessaly, Greece; 1997, 2005; Athanassiou, 2001, 2002a, 2002b).
