Variability among South African west coast megamiddens: Insights from Paternoster North midden

Antonieta Jerardino, Stephan Woodborne, Jayson Orton, R. A. Navarro et autres

Large shell middens or shell mounds are present throughout the world’s coastlines. They are frequent expressions of higher population densities, more sedentary lifestyles, social and technological innovation and/or complexity, and overexploitation of large and small prey. Large Holocene shell middens on the …

Pleistocene and Holocene Archaeology of Southern African Coastlines

Antonieta Jerardino

Abstract Southern African coastlines have been magnets for human settlement since the late Pleistocene. Evidence for isolated or sporadic use (from 600 ka) and later recurrent access (from 160 ka) to a variety of coastal resources in this subcontinent ranks among the …

Human Resilience in the Face of Mid-Holocene Climate Change on the Central West Coast of South Africa

Antonieta Jerardino

Abstract After the Last Glacial Maximum, important yet milder climatic trends continued to characterise the Holocene. None of them was more challenging to forager groups in the central west coast of South Africa than the mid-Holocene Altithermal (8200–4200 cal BP). Hot and …

Coastal foraging on the West Coast of South Africa in the midst of mid-Holocene climate change

Antonieta Jerardino

The mid-Holocene (ca. 8200–4200 cal BP) brought about important climatic changes and environmental shifts to land and coastal systems, globally. Many of the human groups existing at that time were affected in various degrees by such important modifications to their foraging areas, …
