Special Issue: Holocene environments, human subsistence and adaptation in northern and eastern Eurasia

Guest Editors: Leipe C, Long T, Wertmann P, Wagner M

All 14 articles combine palaeoenvironmental with archaeological data to create new knowledge and thought-provoking conclusions. Six teams concentrated on the reconstruction of past climate and environmental changes; three articles focus on early grain crop dispersal, one on the use of beans, one on the use of aquatic resources, and one on the role of sheep and horse as well as wild plant and animal species in subsistence economies; one author relates long-term coastal changes to cultural development; and [...]

“The invention of trousers” exhibition at State Museum of Archaeology, Chemnitz

The State Museum of Archaeology in Chemnitz (https://www.smac.sachsen.de/) has a long tradition of bringing results of archaeological research to the public. One of the effective forms of their work are the “foyer exhibitions.” https://www.smac.sachsen.de/foyerausstellungen-erfindung-der-hose.html The recent exhibition in the museum’s foyer – “The invention of trousers” (opened from 11 March until May 8th, 2022, access free of charge) – highlights the results of the international research project "Silk Road Fashion" led by Prof. Mayke Wagner (German Archaeological Institute) and [...]

Building a high-resolution chronology for northern Hokkaido – A case study of the Late Holocene Hamanaka 2 site on Rebun Island, Hokkaido (Japan)

Junno A, Dury JPR, Leipe C, Wagner M, Tarasov PE, Hirasawa Y, Jordan PD, Kato H

Archaeological radiocarbon dating in coastal northern Hokkaido is challenged by the marine reservoir effect and the scarcity of materials with terrestrial carbon sources. This has contributed to gaps and general uncertainty in the timing of the region's culture-historical periods. The Late Holocene site of Hamanaka 2 on Rebun Island, featuring a stratified shell midden context with excellent preservation of organic remains, provides an ideal setting for addressing this issue. A Bayesian chronological model was deployed to study the [...]

Not herbs and forbs alone: pollen‐based evidence for the presence of boreal trees and shrubs in Cis‐Baikal (Eastern Siberia) derived from the Last Glacial Maximum sediment of Lake Ochaul

Kobe F, Leipe C, Shchetnikov AA, Hoelzmann P, Gliwa J, Olschewski P, Goslar T, Wagner M, Bezrukova EV, Tarasov PE

A new accelerator mass spectrometry (AMS)‐dated sedimentary record from Lake Ochaul (54°14′N, 106°28′E; 641 m a.s.l.) in Eastern Siberia covers the interval from ca. 27 850 to 20 400 cal a bp at ca. 180‐year resolution and contributes to a better understanding of the complex spatial vegetation pattern during the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM). Non‐arboreal pollen taxa are abundant in the pollen assemblages (mean value ca. 92.6%), but boreal trees are represented by all major taxa that grow in the lake catchment today, [...]

Environments during the spread of anatomically modern humans across Northern Asia 50-10 cal kyr BP: What do we know and what would we like to know?

Tarasov PE, Leipe C, Wagner M

Northern Asia (here, the Russian Federation east of the Urals) played a key role in the spread of anatomically modern humans (AMH) across the Eurasian continent during the Upper Palaeolithic (UP). This time interval witnessed the climatically harshest and most variable part of the last glacial epoch when AMH spread to all continents, with the exception of ice-covered Antarctica, thus raising questions about how humans and environments interacted. Our review of available proxy records shows that the study [...]
