چکیده
Figure 2. Evolution of tooth centroid size (M2) (y-axis) through time (x-axis) for small domestic pigs (d), large pigs with domestic tooth shape (D) and large pigs with wild tooth shape (W). The schematic (shadowed) small pig of the Early Neolithic represents the small domestic pigs present in Romania at this period based on traditional metrical data (humerus, [26]) but not present in our data. Also shown is the proportion of different haplotypes: yellow for Y1, maroon for AS1, red for E1-C, purple for E1-A, black for the new haplotype AS2 and green for Y2. Total sample size (n) including all four teeth for each category. The original figure showing data for all teeth is in electronic supplementary material, figure S2. The data were constrained within a chronological framework that consisted of six periods [48]: Mesolithic (8000–6100 cal BC), Early Neolithic (6100–5500 cal BC), Middle Neolithic (5500–5000 cal BC), Early Chalcolithic (5200–4500 cal BC), Middle Chalcolithic (4600–3600 cal BC; [28]) and a pooled phase combining Bronze and Iron Age (i.e. later prehistory; 2000 cal BC to first century AD).

Unravelling the complexity of domestication: a case study using morphometrics and ancient DNA analyses of archaeological pigs from Romania
Current evidence suggests that pigs were first domesticated in Eastern Anatolia during the ninth millennium cal BC before dispersing into Europe with Early Neolithic farmers from the beginning of the seventh millennium. Recent ancient DNA (aDNA) research also indicates the incorporation of European wild boar into domestic stock during the Neolithization process. In order to establish the timing...
متن کاملIntroducing Satellite Remote Sensing Systems and its Application in Archaeology Case Study: Behshahr Plain- Mazandaran
Human groups have considered the Behshahr plain of Mazandaran in the past Due to its particular geographical shape, location between the Caspian Sea and mountains, and the existence of some rivers in the region. However, our knowledge of this area is limited to several published surveys and archaeological investigation of its ancient sites. No detailed research has conducted on the formation of...
متن کاملAncient DNA from Human and Animal
Research on ancient DNA (aDNA) has the potential to enable molecular biologists and archeologists to decipher certain aspects of history by direct looking into the past. However, several major problems in this field limit the applicability of aDNA studies, most importantly contamination with modern DNA and postmortem DNA degradation. In this study we extracted and analyzed aDNA obtained from ~3...
