An integrative examination of elk imagery in Middle Holocene Cis-Baikal, Siberia

Losey RJ, Bazaliiskii VI, Nomokonova T

Elk are common in forager archaeological artwork of northern Eurasia. During the Middle Holocene, the peoples of Cis-Baikal produced numerous elk depictions in rock art and mobiliary items. Most of the rock art has now been destroyed. However, Cis-Baikal’s cemeteries and habitation sites are increasingly well documented, with the former generating numerous elk images. To better understand this imagery, we first discuss elk biology and behavior. We then contextualize the imagery within other forms of archaeological data, including [...]

Morphological Analysis of the Bone Serrated Points from Early Neolithic Complexes of Shamanka 2 Burial Ground [in Russian]

Bazaliiskii VI, Tyutrin AA, Weber AW

An analysis of the bone serrated points from the burial complexes of Shamanka 2 burial ground is presented. The origin of the collection makes it “ritual”, which may explain the large number of undamaged items. Several spikes have been broken intentionally at the time of their interment. Supposedly, several points have been specifically made for interment. In accordance with the morphological analysis, we have identified two groups of serrated spikes: (I) detachable tools and (II) non-detachable tools. Differences [...]

Congratulations to Rebecca Bourgeois on her recent article published in the Journal of Archaeological Sciences: Reports June 2021! Also congratulations to BAP co-authors Vladimir I. Bazaliiskii, Hugh McKenzie and Angela Lieverse. Title: A four-stage approach to re-associating fragmented and commingled human remains Authors: Bourgeois RL, Bazaliiskii VI, McKenzie H, Clark TN, Lieverse AR Abstract: Bioarchaeological and forensic anthropological methods are limited in their ability to re-associate human skeletal remains that have been both fragmented and commingled. Although many methods [...]

A four-stage approach to re-associating fragmented and commingled human remains

Bourgeois RL, Bazaliiskii VI, McKenzie H, Clark TN, Lieverse AR

Bioarchaeological and forensic anthropological methods are limited in their ability to re-associate human skeletal remains that have been both fragmented and commingled. Although many methods for individualizing commingled remains exist, they are rendered ineffective when the level of fragmentation is high. In these contexts, human remains are often approached similarly to faunal assemblages, regarded as sets of fragmented elements rather than as groups of fragments representing an individual. This paper introduces a new, four-stage approach to identifying discrete [...]

Spatio-temporal patterns of cemetery use among Middle Holocene hunter-gatherers of Cis-Baikal, Eastern Siberia

Bronk Ramsey C, Schulting RJ, Bazaliiskii VI, Goriunova OI, Weber AW

Hunter-gatherer archaeology typically focusses on the details of subsistence strategies and material culture and, in the case of cemeteries, on various aspects of mortuary practices, beliefs, and social differentiation. This paper aims to look rather at patterns of change over time and space in how past hunter-gatherer cemeteries were used from Late Mesolithic to Early Bronze Age (~8600–3500 cal. BP) in the Cis-Baikal region of Eastern Siberia. The approach is based on a Kernel Density methodology applied to [...]
