Towards Robust Demographic Models: A Systematic Framework to 14C Data Aggregation and Analysis with Lessons from the Southern Levant

Magdalena M. E. Bunbury

This study presents a robust seven-step framework for curating and analysing extensive radiocarbon (14C) datasets, optimised to construct accurate Summed Probability Distribution (SPD) models. Applied to a comprehensive dataset of 4,657 14C dates from 582 archaeological sites in the Southern Levant spanning …

Subsistence and population development from the Middle Neolithic B (2800–2350 BCE) to the Late Neolithic (2350–1700 BCE) in Southern Scandinavia

Jens Winther Johannsen, Julian Laabs, Magdalena M. E. Bunbury, Morten Fischer Mortensen

The present study aims to explore the hypothesis of a link between a population increase derived from intensified food production and the development from the widespread cultural diversity of the Middle Neolithic B (MNB) to the cultural unity towards the end of …

AUSTRALIAN MARINE RADIOCARBON RESERVOIR EFFECTS: ΔR ATLAS AND ΔR CALCULATOR FOR AUSTRALIAN MAINLAND COASTS AND NEAR-SHORE ISLANDS

Sean Ulm, Damien O’Grady, Fiona Petchey, Quan Hua et autres

ABSTRACT Studies of pre-bomb mollusks live-collected around the Australian coastline have concluded that near-shore marine radiocarbon reservoir effects are small and relatively uniform. These studies are based on limited samples of sometimes dubious quality representing only selective parts of Australia’s lengthy coastline. …

A new chronology for the Māori settlement of Aotearoa (NZ) and the potential role of climate change in demographic developments

Magdalena M. E. Bunbury, Fiona Petchey, Simon H. Bickler

Understanding the role of climate change, resource availability, and population growth in human mobility remains critically important in anthropology. Researching linkages between climate and demographic changes during the short settlement history of Aotearoa (New Zealand) requires temporal precision equivalent to the period …
