Lillios** * Department of Anthropology, University of Toronto, 19 Russell St., Toronto, ONT M5S 2S2, Canada, [email protected] ** Department of Anthropology, 114 Macbride Hall, The University of Iowa, Iowa City, IA 52242, USA, [email protected] Archaeology is animated by the tension between our interest in long-term processes and recognition that our evidence relates to the activities, often the most quotidian, of individuals. Of course, archaeology is not the only endeavor to grapple with this problem. Agency theory, inspired by the writing of Giddens and Bourdieu, is born of the struggle to balance the practices of everyday life and the structures of society. The Annales School of history draws heavily on Braudel’s idea about the various temporal scales of history, notably the longue durée which is beyond the experience of the individual. Andrew Moore’s career embraces these two facets of archaeology–the individual/short term and collective/long term-- and the papers collected here follow a similar course. In his book on the excavation of Abu Hureyra, a book that goes beyond the rubric of ‘site report’ to truly become a coherent and integrated monograph, Moore and his colleagues draw on multiple lines of evidence to understand the daily lives of the people who lived in this small village by the Euphrates. However, this research team always had a simultaneous focus on the long-term process of the origins of agriculture. In multiple articles Moore has advanced temporal structures for this process, thus engaging in a temporal and geographic scope well beyond the experience of any single person or generation living in the past. In his work, as in the papers collected here, the effort is not to resolve the discrepancy between individual experience and long- term process but rather to keep these two objectives firmly in mind at all times. It is striking that a theme that emerges in the papers collected here is a consideration of how people move through space. Rather than simply apply abstract categories of mobility strategies the authors of these papers ask us to think about a peopled landscape, a landscape of interactions and people in motion. The articles collected here are from a diverse group reflecting the scope of Moore’s influence. Included are collaborators, students, students of students, and some who have not worked directly with Moore but who have been heavily influenced by his research. In inviting submissions we presented little in the way of guidelines except soliciting papers with a geographic focus on the Near East and the Balkans, which have been the focus of Moore’s field research. To our surprise preface 7 the resulting papers are remarkably unified in their attention to the relationship of people to the landscape. Following a review of Moore’s biography and career in archaeology by Katina Lillios, the collection opens with a contribution by Brian Boyd that revisits Moore’s seminal work at Abu Hureyra. Boyd situates the fieldwork at Abu Hureyra in the political history of the modern Middle East. Although the theme of this paper is to provide a critical perspective on the concepts that guide research on the Neolithic, his discussion cannot help but evoke thoughts of the horror facing Syrian people today and the peril to cultural heritage. We can only hope for a day when Syrians are able to return to their lives and the exploration of the rich archaeological record of Syria can resume. Boyd asks us to reconsider the notion of core and periphery as applied to the Natufian. This is a timely and important contribution that puts the earliest occupation of Abu Hureyra in a new perspective and invites us to look at the Natufian with fresh eyes. Boyd’s contribution also raises fundamental questions about the relationship between archaeological place and the people who inhabited these landscapes. The themes raised by Boyd are echoed by Deborah Olszewski, one of Moore’s collaborators in the analysis of materials from Abu Hureyra. Olszewski presents a detailed contextual analysis of the site of Tor Sageer, a small late Upper Paleolithic and initial Epipaleolithic site in the Wadi al-Hasa, Jordan, to look at Late Pleistocene exploitation of marsh environments. She finds that, contrary to expectation, at this particular location the marshland environment was exploited in repeated residential visits rather than as the hub of logistical landscape use. Based on this case study Olszewski emphasizes variation in hunter-gatherer behavior based on specific nuances of environmental context. Lisa Maher then shifts the focus to the other end of the spectrum, to a site with very high intensity of occupation, considering the remarkable archaeological record of the terminal Pleistocene site of Kharaneh IV in Eastern Jordan. Despite the richness of this locality Maher urges us to shift our focus away from the site and towards ‘the spaces between the sites’ and an ‘inclusive social landscape’. Maher’s work also undermines the clarity of the distinction between the lifeways of Neolithic societies and those of their hunter- gatherer predecessors. Sarah Stewart returns to the theme of socially constructed landscapes in her examination of ethnographies of land use on Cyprus and the relevance of these studies for the interpretation of archaeological survey results. Stewart emphasizes the fragmentation of landholdings that results from inheritance practices. She argues that the energetic inefficiency resulting from the need to travel to distant plots of land is balanced by the value of distributed landholdings for social interaction and as a buffer against risk. Based on this ethnographic background Stewart looks at the use of site-catchment analysis in archaeological survey and situates the sites from her own survey work on the Idalion Survey Project within an expanded site-catchment context. Beginning in 2000 Moore shifted the focus of his fieldwork from the Near East to Croatia. His collaborator, Marko Menđušić, provides a historical overview of Neolithic research in Dalmatia and situates Moore’s contribution within this 8 fresh fields and pastures new broader historical context. As Boyd does for the Middle East, Menđušić touches on the impact of political context on the development of archaeological research in the region. Menđušić’s chapter also brings attention to the value of international collaborative programs of research. His contribution is expanded by McClure and Podrug, who emphasize not change but stability in Neolithic adaptations across millennia. This stability in adaptation appears to be crosscut by shifts in social transformations and the demands of the micro-environments of particular sites. Archaeologists tend to focus on terrestrial landscapes and to think of bodies of water as voids where site distributions end. Timothy Kaiser and Stašo Forenbaher question the role of maritime travel for the Neolithic societies of the Adriatic. In their contribution, Kaiser and Forenbaher provide an overview of the currents and wind patterns that would have been of critical importance for early mariners. In this context the archaeological evidence on the island of Palagruza is particularly important, as this was a critical stopover for sailors seeking to avoid night voyages.

  • The Late Neolithic Colonization of the Eastern Badia of Jordan
    The Late Neolithic colonization of the Eastern Badia of Jordan 1 Gary Rollefson1, Yorke Rowan2 and Alexander Wasse Pioneering research by Betts and by Garrard in the eastern steppe and desert of Jordan demonstrated the presence of Late Neolithic (c. 7000–5000 cal BC) pastoral exploitation of this currently arid/hyper-arid region, but the scale of Late Neolithic presence in the area was difficult to assess from the reports of their surveys and excavations. Recent investigations by the Eastern Badia Archaeological Project at Wisad Pools and the Wadi al-Qattafi in the Black Desert have shown that conditions during the latter half of the 7th millennium and into the 6th, permitted substantial numbers of pastoralists to occupy substantial dwellings recurrently, in virtual village settings, for considerable amounts of time on a seasonal basis, relying heavily on the hunting of wild animals and perhaps practising opportunistic agriculture in addition to herding caprines.

  • Tell Abu Suwwan, a Neolithic Site in Jordan: Preliminary Report on the 2005 and 2006 Field Seasons
    Tell Abu Suwwan, A Neolithic Site in Jordan: Preliminary Report on the 2005 and 2006 Field Seasons Maysoon al-Nahar Department of Archaeology Institute of Archaeology University of Jordan Amman 11942, Jordan [email protected] Tell Abu Suwwan is the only Neolithic site excavated north of the Zarqa River in Jordan. Its architectural characteristics and the diagnostic lithic artifacts discovered at the site during the University of Jordan 2005 and 2006 field seasons, directed by the author, suggest that the site was occupied continually from the Middle Pre-Pottery Neolithic Phase B (MPPNB) to the Yarmoukian (Pottery Neolithic) period. The site was divided by the excavator into two areas—A and B. Area A yielded a few walls, plaster floors, and orange clay. Area B yielded a large square or rectangular building with three clear types of plaster floors and an orange clay area. Both Areas A and B include numerous lithics, bones, and some small finds. Based on a recent survey outward from the excavated area, the probable size of Abu Suwwan is 10.5 ha (26 acres), and it contains complex architecture with a long chronological sequence. These attributes suggest that Tell Abu Suwwan is one of the Jordanian Neolithic megasites. introduction though the site contains a distinctive architecture, it shares various similarities with several other Levan- ell Abu Suwwan is a large Neolithic site in tine Pre-Pottery Neolithic (PPN) sites, e.g., Jericho T north Jordan; it is on the east side of the old (Kenyon 1956: 69–77; 1969), Tell Ramad (de Con- Jarash–Amman highway, immediately before tenson 1971: 278–85), Tell Abu Hureyra (Moore, the turn west to Ajlun (fig.

The Macrobotanical Evidence for Vegetation in the Near East, c. 18 000/16 000 B.C to 4 000 B.C. Abstract Vegetation during the glacial period, post-glacial warming and the Younger Dryas does not seem to have been affected by human activities to any appreciable extent. Forest expansion at the beginning of the Holocene occurred independently of human agency, though early Neolithic farmers were able to take advantage of improved climatic conditions. Absence of macrobotanical remains precludes discussion of possible drought from 6,000 to 5,500 ВС. By farming, herding, and fuel-cutting, human populations began to have an impact on the landscape at different times and places. Deleterious effects of these activities became evident in the Tigris-Euphrates drainage during the third millennium ВС based on macrobotanical evidence from archaeological sites.

  • New Version of the Theory of Unique and Recent Origin of Modern Man
    13 International Journal of Modern Anthropology Int. J. Mod. Anthrop. (2014) 7: 13 - 42 ailable online at: www.ata.org.tn DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.4314/ijma.v1i7.1 Original Synthesis Article Recent out of Yemen: new version of the theory of unique and recent origin of modern man Hassen Chaabani Hassen Chaabani was born the 07 / 09 / 1947 in Tunis (Tunisia). He is Full Professor and research unit Director at Monastir University. He is the Founder and the President of the Tunisian Association of Anthropology. He is the Founder and the Editor of the International Journal of Modern Anthropology. Specialist in Human Genetics, Biological Anthropology and some cultural and religious subjects, he wrote dozens of academic articles and two books. In 2014, he was awarded the honorary title of Professor Emeritus. University of Monastir, Faculty of Pharmacy, 5000 Monastir, Tunisia. Abstract - It is generally accepted that the human evolutionary history was started in sub-Saharan Africa by the emergence of first individuals belonging to our genus Homo. But details of this evolution, particularly those of its last stage relating to the modern man (Homo sapiens sapiens) emergence, represent until now a controversial topic. Confusion and imprecision associated with certain concepts and definitions have accentuated this controversy and therefore helped to curb the progress of the research in this topic. In this paper I present these problems before presenting a new detailed version of the theory of unique and recent origin of modern man. This version designated “Recent out of Yemen” thesis represents a refined grand synthesis in which my advanced hypotheses are brought together with new additional details.

The phylogeny of cassoidean gastropods is reviewed, incorporating most of the biological and palaeontological data from the literature. Several characters have been checked personally and some new data are presented and included in the cladistic analysis. The Laubierinioidea, Calyptraeoidea and Capuloidea are used as outgroups. Twenty-three apomorphies are discussed and used to define cassoid relations at the subfamily level. A classification is presented in which only three families are recognised. The Ranellidae contains the subfamilies Bursinae, Cymatiinae and Ranellinae. The Pisanianurinae is removed from the Ranellidae and attributed to the Laubierinioidea.The Cassidae include the Cassinae, Oocorythinae, Phaliinae and Tonninae. The Ranellinae and Oocorythinae are and considered the of their families. The third the both paraphyletic taxa are to represent stem-groups family, Personidae, cannot be subdivided and for anatomical evolved from Cretaceous into subfamilies reasons probably the same Early gastropod ancestor as the Ranellidae. have from Ranellidae the Late Cretaceous. The Cassidae (Oocorythinae) appears to branched off the (Ranellinae) during The first significant radiation of the Ranellidae/Cassidaebranch took place in the Eocene. The Tonninae represents the youngest branch of the phylogenetic tree. Key words — Neomesogastropoda, Cassoidea, ecology, morphology, fossil evidence, systematics. Dr F.
