  • Don Brothwell 1933-2016: a Tribute to a Polymath
    Don Brothwell 1933-2016: A tribute to a polymath Don Brothwell, Professor and then Emeritus Professor of Human Palaeoecology at York, with members of the BioArCh team in the Department of Archaeology, University of York (courtesy of Malin Holst) As a person and as a scholar, Don Brothwell had an incredible influence on so many people around the world for so many years, and his legacy continues to do so. However, it is a very daunting task to write a short celebration of his life in archaeological science, and particularly in bioarchaeology, because he did so much for us! He himself had just written and published his memoirs (2016), the Archaeopress website describing it as ‘the first memoir by an internationally known archaeological scientist, and one who has been particularly research active for over fifty years in the broad field of bioarchaeology’. Beyond the references I have cited for this piece, I would highly recommend this as a fascinating read for all (see contents list below); just look at what he has done and where he has travelled as a starting point! What a role model for being an academic. Some of what I will say here is already on York University’s website for Don as a personal tribute to him (http://www.york.ac.uk/archaeology/staff/academic-staff/in- memoriam-don-brothwell/), but here I am describing some of his remarkable achievements through what he published. First, though, we should celebrate his contributions, in general, to archaeological science. How did that all start? Well, he did “science” A levels in biology, chemistry and geology and then studied for a BSc in Archaeology and Anthropology from 1952 at the Institute of Archaeology, University College, London.

  • Illinois Archaeology (2010)
    A Baumer Phase Dog Burial from the Kincaid Site in Southern Illinois Heather A. Lapham Recent excavations at the Kincaid site in southern Illinois uncovered a small domestic dog (Canis familiaris) buried in a Baumer phase pit from the Early to Middle Woodland transition (ca. 250 B.C. to A.D. 1). This article describes the skeleton and burial in greater detail, explores the prevalence of dog burials in the study region, and compares the size of the dog with other southeastern canines. The study concludes that dog burials are rare finds on archaeological sites in southern Illinois during the Woodland period as well as earlier and later in time. The Kincaid dog is also unique in its small size, which may explain some of the dental abnormalities observed. The relationship between humans and dogs in prehistory has long intrigued archae- ologists, perhaps because of the special place dogs hold in our lives today as beloved and loyal companions. Dogs have earned their reputation as friends, guardians, helpers, and heroes time and time again through selfless acts that we often interpret as uncon- ditional love. The relationship between dogs and their owners today is not the topic of this article, however; rather, it is the question of past human and canid relationships, or least what can be gleaned about this topic from the study of one domestic dog laid to rest more than 2,000 years ago at the Kincaid site in southern Illinois. Domestic dogs (Canis familiaris) descended from gray wolves (C. lupus), arriving in North America alongside their human companions as they crossed the Bering Strait from Asia and colonized the New World (Clutton-Brock 1995; Olsen 1974; Schwartz 1997).

Butzer* Department of Geography and the Environment, The University of Texas at Austin, Austin, TX 78712, USA article info abstract Article history: The Journal of Archaeological Science first appeared in 1974 as an explicitly interdisciplinary medium, Received 3 April 2009 linking archaeology with the natural sciences, and one that emphasizes methodological innovation. This Accepted 7 April 2009 editorial analysis examines the steady growth of the journal from 400 to 3200 print pages per annum, and from a small to a large, double-column format. The impact factor increased until it became the Keywords: leading archaeological journal overall. Tracking the published papers according to national origin, Interdisciplinary agenda manuscripts from the USA began to outpace those from the UK in 1990, and Australia, South Africa and Cross-disciplinary evolution Canada are well represented. After 2000 the influx of papers from non-Anglophone countries also International constituencies Peer-review increased rapidly until by 2008 they exceeded those from the UK or USA. A growing interest for archaeological science is suggested in Mediterranean countries such as France, Israel, Spain and Italy. Thematic trends are more difficult to track due to the growing structural complexity of many papers. That said, there is no striking thematic shift, confirming the viability of the inclusive philosophy and diversity of the journal, and its balance between problems and analytical innovation, as applied to significant archaeological issues.

  • Zooarchaeology
    Zooarchaeology Zooarchaeology is a detailed reference manual for students and professional archae- ologists interested in identifying and analyzing animal remains from archaeological sites. It draws on material from all over the world, covering a time span from the Pleistocene to the nineteenth century AD, with the emphasis on animals whose remains inform us about many aspects of the relationships between humans and their natural and social environments, especially site formation processes, subsis- tence strategies, and paleoenvironments. The authors discuss suitable methods and theories for all vertebrate classes and molluscs, and include hypothetical examples to demonstrate these. There are extensive references and illustrations to help in the process of identification. Elizabeth J. Reitz is Director of the Museum of Natural History, University of Georgia. Elizabeth S. Wing developed the program in zooarchaeology at the Florida Museum of Natural History, where she is curator. CAMBRIDGE MANUALS IN ARCHAEOLOGY Series editors Don Brothwell, University of York Graeme Barker, University of Leicester Dena Dincauze, University of Massachusetts, Amherst Priscilla Renouf, Memorial University of Newfoundland Cambridge Manuals in Archaeology is a series of reference handbooks designed for an international audience of upper level undergraduate and graduate students, and professional archaeologists and archaeological scientists in universities, museums, research laboratories and field units.

  • Reports from the Environmental Archaeology Unit, York 94/38, 3 Pp
    Reports from the Environmental Archaeology Unit, York 94/38, 3 pp. A preliminary assessment of the preserved human brain tissue from Magistrates Court, Hull. by Dr Keith Dobney and Professor Don Brothwell Summary Several fragments of well preserved human brain were recovered from a medieval skeleton at the Magistrates Court site, Hull. Although of limited value in providing detailed information about the medieval friars of Hull, it provides an almost unique opportunity to address, in detail, questions regarding the preservation of soft tissue. Histological, chemical and biomolecular studies are recommended although these need to be co-ordinated. The possibility of uncovering more during the course of excavation should be borne in mind.
