1. 31. An Optimal Foraging Perspective on Early Holocene Human Prey Choice on Gotland : Affluence or Starvation?

   Magister-uppsats, Institutionen för kultur, energi och miljö

   Författare :Ingegärd Enander Malmros; [2012]

   Sammanfattning : The Optimal Foraging Theory, rooted in the processual archaeology, uses a measuring methodology where the foraging strategy that gives the highest payoff measured as the highest ratio of energy gain per time unit is analysed (Mac Arthur & Pianca 1966, Emlen 1966). The theory is a branch of evolutionary ecology why much attention is paid to the interdependence of humans and preys and environmental conditions caused by climatologically and geographical changes or by overexploitation or other changes caused by humans.

   Författare :Maria Köppe; [2011]
   Nyckelord :History and Archaeology;

   Sammanfattning : The perceptions of what caused the disappearance of the Neanderthals have been argued a great deal among researchers. In this paper I will present five hypotheses that different researchers have presented. Each one of these hypotheses departs from the others and stands behind either a cultural, biological or an environmental model of explanation. LÄS MER

5. 34. A Greenland ice core perspective on the dating of the Late Bronze Age Santorini eruption

   Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Geologiska institutionen

   Författare :Elin Löfroth; [2010]
   Nyckelord :Santorini; 10Be; 14C; NGRIP; kolcykelmodellering; carbon cycle modeling; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

   Sammanfattning : The Santorini eruption is one of the greatest in historic time and an important time marker in the regional archaeology. It has been dated to 1627-1600 BC (2σ error) using radiocarbon dating (Friedrich et al. 2006) and to 1642±5 BC by identifying a volcanic fallout layer in the Greenland ice cores (Vinther et al. 2006).
