STONE-PAVED CELLARS IN THE STONE AGE? ARCHAEOLOGICAL EVIDENCE FOR A NEOLITHIC SUBTERRANEAN CONSTRUCTION FROM NYGÅRDSVEJ 3, FALSTER, DENMARK
No full textWe present the excavation results from a Middle Neolithic site associated with the Funnel Beaker Culture. Within two overlying house phases, a recessed area was recorded, which had been constructed using different sized pebbles. The arrangement and form of the feature clearly indicated anthropogenic origin and is understood as belonging to one of the house phases. Consequently, it is interpreted as a cellar. Several pits and post holes are additional features that were recorded at the site and indicate the presence of a fence structure with up to seven parallel courses. In this paper, we present radiocarbon dates from the features and an age model for the construction and use of the cellar as well as the fences. Moreover, the site Nygårdsvej 3 will be placed in its regional archaeological landscape
Danmarks Not-So-Oldest Sheep:An Update on Domestic Animals from the Femern Project
Get PDFSheep and goats are often considered to be the oldest livestock animals in Denmark. In this contribution, we present the results of ZooMS measurements from seven ovicaprid bones from the Femern project, an excavation in the area of the former Syltholm Fjord (Lolland, Denmark). The bones were morphologically identified as sheep or goats and represented the oldest dated remains of both species in Denmark. However, the ZooMS analysis showed that more than half of the morphological identifications were incorrect. For the other samples, we refined the identifications. Hence, our study confirms that indications of sheep and goat husbandry based on bone morphology alone should be treated with caution. The probability of misidentification in our case was high, even in the case of well-preserved bones

No full textThe BIAD Standards:Recommendations for archaeological data publication and insights from the Big Interdisciplinary Archaeological Database
No full textWe present a series of recommendations for the publication of archaeological data to facilitate efficient databasing. These recommendations were collated by data experts who mined thousands of publications for different types of archaeological data during the construction of the Big Interdisciplinary Archaeological Database (BIAD). We include data harmonisation vocabularies utilised for the integration of data from different recording systems. These recommendations initiate a move towards creating a unified and integrated framework for all types of archaeological data to ultimately sit within a single relational structure. We anticipate that use of the BIAD Standards will increase the visibility, usability and longevity of published data and also increase the citations of those publications from which data was mined
