The End of the Chalcolithic Period in the South Jordan Valley: New 14c Determinations from Teleilat Ghassul, Jordan
This article reports on 12 new accelerator mass spectrometry (AMS) dates from the latest phases of the Chalcolithic period occupation (late 5th millennium cal BC) at Teleilat Ghassul, type site for the south Levantine Ghassulian Chalcolithic culture. The new AMS dates from Teleilat Ghassul favor an amendment to a previous suggestion (Bourke et al. 2001), that all significant occupation at the s...
متن کاملThe Chronology of the Ghassulian Chalcolithic Period in the Southern Levant: New 14c Determinations from Teleilat Ghassul, Jordan
This article reports on ten new accelerator mass spectrometry (AMS) dates from the Chalcolithic period (fifth millennium BC) archaeological type-site of Teleilat Ghassul in Jordan. Early radiocarbon assays from the site proved difficult to integrate with current relative chronological formulations. The ten new AMS dates and follow-up enquiries connected with the early assays suggest that the or...
متن کاملMitochondrial DNA from El Mirador Cave (Atapuerca, Spain) Reveals the Heterogeneity of Chalcolithic Populations
Previous mitochondrial DNA analyses on ancient European remains have suggested that the current distribution of haplogroup H was modeled by the expansion of the Bell Beaker culture (ca 4,500-4,050 years BP) out of Iberia during the Chalcolithic period. However, little is known on the genetic composition of contemporaneous Iberian populations that do not carry the archaeological tool kit definin...
متن کاملPeriod determinations of spotted stars
The general behaviours of photometric, radial velocity and polarimetric observational investigations are explored in terms of the signals generated by a spot or patch in co-rotation with a star. It is demonstrated that the results of any period analysis of data depends on the nature of the chosen measurement diagnostic. Unlike photometry, analysis of radial velocity measurements is likely to pr...
متن کاملThe origin of war: new 14C dates from ancient Mexico.
New 14C dates from archaeological sites in Oaxaca, Mexico, support R. C. Kelly's observation that intervillage raiding may begin as soon as a region has segmentary societies. The oldest defensive palisade dates to 3260-3160 B.P. in conventional radiocarbon years, only a few centuries after village life was established. Over the next millennium raiding evolved into war, with residences and templ...
