This paper presents the results of excavations carried out in Chalcolithic contexts from walled enclosure Ota (Alenquer, Portugal). Six new absolute dates allow discussion stratigraphical evidence and chronologically frame zooarchaeological taphonomical analysis faunal assemblage. Domesticated swine, caprine bovine are prevalent, while wild species, most notably leporids, but also red deer, aur...
Cave paintings in Europe and North Africa depict wild cattle, the aurochs (Bos primigenius), among the prized prey of Stone Age hunters. These majestic animals stood nearly 2 M at the withers and had horns up to 1 M long.

The gradual process of aurochs extinction finished in Poland in 1627, were the last recorded aurochs, a female, died. Some aspects of cattle domestication history and the distribution of aurochs genetic material among modern cattle breeds ...
The domestication and development of cattle has considerably impacted human societies, but the histories of cattle breeds and populations have been poorly understood especially for African, Asian, and American breeds. Using genotypes from 43,043 autosomal single nucleotide polymorphism markers scored in 1,543 animals, we evaluate the population structure of 134 domesticated bovid breeds. Regard...
The relative female and male contributions to demography are of great importance to better understand the history and dynamics of populations. While earlier studies relied on uniparental markers to investigate sex-specific questions, the increasing amount of sequence data now enables us to take advantage of tens to hundreds of thousands of independent loci from autosomes and the X chromosome. H...
The lion-bull iconography during the Achaemenian period of ancient Persia has generated different theories of astronomicaland seasonal events besides the suggestions that it could be the symbol of the time cycle of the day, with lion representingthe sun and bull the night.
