Ancient genomics and the origin, dispersal, and development of domestic sheep Open
The origins and prehistory of domestic sheep ( Ovis aries ) are incompletely understood; to address this, we generated data from 118 ancient genomes spanning 12,000 years sampled from across Eurasia. Genomes from Central Türkiye ~8000 BCE …

Early Neolithic avifaunal remains from southeast Anatolia provide insight into Early Holocene species distributions and long‐term shifts in their range Open
Based on the species‐rich avifaunas from Early Neolithic sites across Upper Mesopotamia (southeast Türkiye, northern Syria, northern Iraq), we compared seven species' Early Holocene distribution patterns with that of their modern species r…

Ancient mitogenomes from Pre-Pottery Neolithic Central Anatolia and the effects of a Late Neolithic bottleneck in sheep ( <i>Ovis aries</i> ) Open
Occupied between ~10,300 and 9300 years ago, the Pre-Pottery Neolithic site of Aşıklı Höyük in Central Anatolia went through early phases of sheep domestication. Analysis of 629 mitochondrial genomes from this and numerous sites in Anatoli…

Distinct modes and intensity of bird exploitation at the dawn of agriculture in the Upper Euphrates and Tigris River basins Open
Early Neolithic avifaunas excavated at the sites of Göbekli Tepe and Gusir Höyük illustrate two entirely different modes of bird exploitation in south-eastern Anatolia during the 10th and 9th millennia BCE, which prompted us the re-evaluat…

GBIF-Compliant Data Pipeline for the Management and Publication of a Global Taxonomic Reference List of Pests in Natural History Collections Open
There is a growing demand for monitoring pests in natural history collections (NHCs) and establishing integrated pest management (IPM) solutions (Crossman and Ryde 2022). In this context, up-to-date taxonomic reference lists and controlled…

Isotopic and DNA analyses reveal multiscale PPNB mobility and migration across Southeastern Anatolia and the Southern Levant Open
Growing reliance on animal and plant domestication in the Near East and beyond during the Pre-Pottery Neolithic B (PPNB) (the ninth to eighth millennium BC) has often been associated with a “revolutionary” social transformation from mobili…

Sediment cascades and the entangled relationship between human impact and natural dynamics at the pre‐pottery Neolithic site of Göbekli Tepe, Anatolia Open
This study presents a meta‐analysis of radiocarbon ages for the environs of Göbekli Tepe – one of the oldest monumental structures worldwide – using cumulative probability functions to diachronically assess phases of geomorphodynamic activ…

Change in Historical Range of the Ural Owl in Europe Open
A carpometacarpus recovered during archaeological excavations in the town of Quaregnon is the westernmost find ever reported in Europe of a Ural Owl (Strix uralensis), and the first occurrence for Belgium. Both the morphology of the skelet…

Joint health in free-ranging and confined small bovids - Implications for early stage caprine management Open
Human interference with the life cycle of wild ruminant species in the 10th-9th millennia BCE was essential to the 'Neolithic Revolution' in the Near East. Being a process of learning by doing, initial ruminant management must have been ch…
