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.

Historischehistorische Archäologie 2017 Sonderband 2017 Archäologiefestschrift Für Andreas Heege
HistorischeHistorische Archäologie 2017 Sonderband 2017 ArchäologieFestschrift für Andreas Heege The shoe style ‘Einbeck’ and four patten styles from the city of Einbeck Marquita Volken Introduction The town of Einbeck, located in Lower Saxony, Germany, is renowned for its beautiful sixteenth century timber framed houses, under which lies a wealth of archaeological material, conserved in humid ground that allows the preserva- tion of many organic materials such as wood, bone and leather. In 2002 the ar- chaeological treasures and medieval to modern period history of Einbeck were presented in the book Einbeck im Mittelalter by Andreas Heege with Eva Roth Heege. Given the immense quantity of material presented, the archaeological leather finds are summarily presented in short section of a few pages though more than a thousand leather fragments were recovered (Heege/Volken/Volk- en 2002, 294–299). A select number of medieval shoe styles were illustrated, including a rare mid fourteenth century style with a distinctive round open side, named the Petersilienwasser (-J) style after the important archaeological site in the town centre (Heege et al. 2002, 298, figure 627 bottom and in: Volken 2014, cat. no. 17.25). Medieval shoe styles and their cutting patterns are remarkably uniform throughout Europe, which allows a named shoe style/cutting pattern typological classification for recovered archaeological shoes. The lack of strictly regional shoe styles is most probably due to a widespread control of produc- tion methods by shoemaker’s guilds. Medieval shoes were made with the turn shoe construction, which imposes a single, thin leather sole. When walking on natural grounds (earth, wood, gravel) the thin leather sole wears away slowly, but stone, pavement and other hard surfaces abrade the soles quickly.

Archaeological Production in a Political Context Paul Sinclair in The
Archaeological Production in a Political Context Paul Sinclair In the period since the Second World War, the changing political and economic circumstances experienced by the industrialised countries of Western Europe have led to the development of a new set of relationships between the various metropoles and their ex-colonies. In the realm of the social sciences, including Archaeology, this has led in part to the appearance and growth of new thought trends which challenge orthodox metropolitan scientific norms, and to the breaking up of the positivist "quarantine• which recognises only apolitical scientific practice. In the words of David Clarke, who wrote in a different context: "From the Antipodes to Africa the old regionally self-centred 'colonial' concepts are severely challenged and their weaknesses gravely exposed in the wider general debate" (Clarke 1973:7). The recent discussion and coverage of a number of different national approaches to archaeology in two issues of World Archaeology (Trigger and Glover 1982) underline these developments. In turn, these widespread changes seem to have led to reassessments of the fundamental philosophical and methodological positions which govern the production of archaeological knowledge. Current examples of this trend in the Anglo-American frame 80 of reference include the work of Leone (1982 a,b), and the Cambridge Seminar Group (Hodder 1982). Interest in development archaeology which " complements and extends concern with cultural resource managment Figure 2 programmes has been stimulated by Mi 1 ler (1980), and some other 60 positions are noted in Sinclair (forthcoming b). The variety of the differing approaches to archaeology, each influenced by differing historical, ideological, political and economic 40 circumstances, is extensive (Klejn 1977).

The Greater East Asia Co-Prosperity Sphere and Archaeology in Japan
View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE The Greater East Asia Co-Prosperity Sphere and Archaeology in Japan The Greater East Asia Co-Prosperity Sphere and Archaeology in Japan Hideichi Sakazume Abstract Research regarding Japanese archaeological history up until now has been advanced with a central focus on investigation and research in the Japanese archipelago (the naichi [“domestic territory”] or Japan proper.) Meanwhile, archaeological research in the gaichi (“overseas territories”)—areas out- side the Japanese archipelago that were temporarily made territories of Japan—has hardly been taken up as a matter of consideration. This paper, taking archaeological history to be a part of modern Japanese history, sum- marizes the significance of research in the overseas territories. The “Greater East Asia Co-Prosperity Sphere” was a concept that came to be espoused in 1932 for the sake of establishing the framework for a new order in East Asia, and throughout East Asia there was archaeological research carried out in connection with the policy. Following the annex- ation of Korea in 1910, the post of Governor-General was established on the Korean Peninsula, and research was conducted throughout the region, with research locations established in Pyongyang, Gyeongju and Buyeo under the Government-General Museum of Chosen. Research on Han dy- nasty tombs in the Lelang region is specially noted. With the establishment in 1932 of Manchukuo in northeastern China, the Far-Eastern Archaeological Society, organized in Japan proper, in- dependently carried out archaeological research. The northern region of China was called Hokushi (“North China”), and the Far-Eastern Archaeological Society took on research in this region as well, researching sites that included Han dynasty tombs and the Yungang Grottoes.

Hoppa • Heather B. Thakar • 3 1 1 Lana S. Martin • Allison L. Jaqua • Matthew E. Biwer • Kristina M. Gill1 Published online: 28 November 2015 Ó Springer Science+Business Media New York 2015 Abstract This article evaluates the current state of paleoethnobotany since Has- torf’s 1999 review published in this journal. We discuss advances in methods, ancient subsistence reconstructions, the origins and intensification of agriculture, and how plants inform on issues of political economy and identity. Significant methodological developments in the extraction, identification, and analysis of starch grains and phytoliths have led to advancements in our knowledge of early plant domestication and the transition to food production. Paleoethnobotanists increas- ingly are using more complex quantitative techniques to characterize their data, which have resulted in more nuanced interpretations of plants that fall within the purview of social archaeology and allow us to address issues related to gender, identity, and ritual practice. Keywords Paleoethnobotany Á Archaeobotany Á Plants Á Macrobotanical analysis Á Microbotanical analysis Á New World Introduction The subdiscipline of paleoethnobotany has grown significantly since the turn of the 21st century, in both the number of practitioners and the maturation of microbotanical methods, specifically in the realm of starch grain

Paleoethnobotany
Anthro 3BB3: Paleoethnobotany Instructor: Shanti Morell-Hart <[email protected]> Meeting Schedule: Tuesdays 2:30 pm- 5:20 pm Meeting Location: Kenneth Taylor Hall, Room B122 Office Hours: 11:00 am-1:00 pm on Wednesdays, or by appointment Office Location: Chester New Hall, Room 534 Course Description: What was the role of plants in ancient communities? What aspects of daily life are framed by flora and negotiated through ethnobotanical practice? What happens to plant remains after they become incorporated into the archaeological record, and what are the methods used to study these "ecofacts"? How can we use plant remains to answer archaeological and anthropological questions? How do paleoethnobotanical interpretations contribute to our understanding of history and structure our public policy? In this course, we will engage with archaeobotanical laboratory methods and ethnobotanical interpretation through scholarship and hands-on practice. The course is arranged around 1) exploring the major classes of plant remains likely to be encountered in archaeological sites; 2) identifying these remains and organizing the data to make interpretable results; and 3) addressing major issues within the sub-discipline including preservation, analytical methods, sampling, collection, and interpretation. The broad goals are to: - Learn about macro- and micro-botanical analysis of archaeological plant material; - Understand the problems and range of archaeological research using paleoethnobotanical data; - Gain knowledge of paleoethnobotanical analysis from sampling to interpretation; and - Consider the broader applications of paleoethnobotanical interpretation, including economics, identity, foodways, politics, symbolism, and historical ecology. The class will proceed partly as a seminar, with discussions on assigned readings, and partly as a laboratory section, with practicums and field trips.

Hastorf, Chair In this dissertation I examine domestic life in an early Andean highland community. While these peoples’ homes and material remains may evoke images of tranquil peasants living in quiet harmony with nature, I will challenge the assumptions inherent in that image. The community of La Banda was located directly across the river from a major ritual center. New data obtained by me and presented here reveal a community engaged in complex relationships with the temple of Chavín, the surrounding fields and communities, and the broader Andean world through the practices of trade, production, pilgrimage, and ceremony. There are four major themes presented in this dissertation: ritual, domestic life, trade and importation, and production and exchange practices.
