A set of Swedish and N orwegian burial-grounds churchyards from the Neolithic to Early Middle Ages (3500 BC—1350 AD) is analysed as concerns children's graves. Patterns burial rituals corresponding various concepts childhood are constructed. Childhood looked upon a cultural construction independent time space. The basic growth process infancy adulthood fundamental concept in all societies, but ...

palaeoclimatology is a basic approach for the neolithic archaeology. the world-wide climate changes during the holocene ca. 10th millennia bc was an introduction to the neolithic revolution and the emergence of early villages. early holocene climate oscillations changed the biogeography of iran. consequently, its temperature, fauna and flora had been changed during ca. 12800- 3500 bc; and final...

Abstract From northern China, millet agriculture spread to Korea and the Maritime Russian Far East by 3500–2700 BC. While expansion of agricultural societies across Sea Japan did not occur until around 900 BC, intervening period saw major transformations in Japanese archipelago. The cultural florescence Middle Jōmon central Honshu underwent a collapse reorganisation into more decentralised sett...

Theories about the first Indo-European migration are numerous. Significant contribution in attempt to resolve these theories is given by analysing skeletal material from two biggest prehistoric archaeological sites from N-E Croatia. Eight skeletons of Starcevo culture from sites "Nama" and "Hotel" at Vinkovci (6100-5500 BC) and seven skeletons of Vucedol culture from the site Vineyard Streim at...

In 2018, excavations at Markowice in central Poland produced sound evidence for the uptake of Baden Culture region: remains a young male interred with two cattle drawing funerary sledge were unearthed, along several other Funnel Beaker (TRB) inhumations that date to 3500–3100 BC.

The heterogeneous disease Breast Cancer (BC) is an ancient disease which was noted 3500 years ago by ancient Egyptians [1] .The heterogeneity, including intratumor heterogeneity and intertumor heterogeneity, is influenced by genetic and nongenetic factors. Furthermore, BC is the most common malignant tumor and the second leading cause of cancer death in women. Because BC is a heterogeneous dise...

We analyse new genomic data (0.05-2.95x) from 14 ancient individuals from Portugal distributed from the Middle Neolithic (4200-3500 BC) to the Middle Bronze Age (1740-1430 BC) and impute genomewide diploid genotypes in these together with published ancient Eurasians. While discontinuity is evident in the transition to agriculture across the region, sensitive haplotype-based analyses suggest a s...

Domestication is the process by which plants or animals evolved to fit a human-managed environment, and it is marked by innovations in plant morphology and anatomy that are in turn correlated with new human behaviours and technologies for harvesting, storage and field preparation. Archaeobotanical evidence has revealed that domestication was a protracted process taking thousands of plant genera...

Both origin and evolution of tuberculosis and its pathogens (Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex) are not fully understood. The paleopathological investigation of human remains offers a unique insight into the molecular evolution and spread including correlative data of the environment. The molecular analysis of material from Egypt (3000-500 BC), Sudan (200-600 AD), Hungary (600-1700 AD), Latvia...
