Marine exploitation and the arrival of farming: resolving the paradox of the Mesolithic-Neolithic transition in Denmark Open
The transition to farming in the coastal environments of southern Scandinavia remains a key conundrum in European prehistory. This region was heavily exploited by Late Mesolithic communities of the Ertebølle culture, complex hunter-fisher-…

Sea-level change, palaeotidal modelling and hominin dispersals: The case of the southern Red Sea Open
We examine the likelihood of early human sea crossings of the southern Red Sea during Pleistocene low sea-level stands, using palaeotopographic reconstruction of coastlines, modelling of palaeo-tidal flows and simulation of passive movemen…

Influences of sea level changes and the South Asian Monsoon on southern Red Sea oceanography over the last 30 ka Open
The southern Red Sea is a key region for investigating the effect of climate forces on a semi-closed basin. Detailed micropaleontological (planktic foraminifera) and isotopic (δ 18 Ο, δ 13 C) analyses along with reconstructions of sea surf…

The significance of sea-level change and ancient submerged landscapes in human dispersal and development: A geoarchaeological perspective Open
In this paper we highlight the impact of sea-level change on the archaeological record of key developments in human history that took place during the late Pleistocene and the early Holocene. Before modern sea level became established from…

A drowned Mesolithic shell midden complex at Hjarnø Vesterhoved, Denmark and its wider significance Open
Anthropogenic shell accumulations (shell middens), often of great size, occur in their tens of thousands around the world’s coastlines. They mostly date from the Mid-Holocene onwards and are frequently taken as symptomatic of a Postglacial…
