Grapevine (Vitis vinifera), one of the most important fruit species in Classical Mediterranean world, is thought to have been domesticated first South-Western Asia, during Neolithic. However, domestication process remains largely unknown. Crucial unanswered questions concern duration (rapid or slow?) and related geographical area (single multiple-origins?). Seeds from grapevine its wild ancestor are reported differ according shape. Our work aims, first, confirm this difference secondly...
Chemical analyses of ancient organic compounds absorbed into the pottery fabrics imported Etruscan amphoras ( ca. 500–475 B.C.) and a limestone pressing platform 425–400 at coastal port site Lattara in southern France provide earliest biomolecular archaeological evidence for grape wine viniculture from this country, which is crucial to later history Europe rest world. The data support hypothesis that export by ship Etruria central Italy Mediterranean fueled an ever-growing market interest...
Abstract We present a novel approach to study the sustainability of ancient Mediterranean agriculture that combines measurement carbon isotope discrimination (Δ 13 C) and nitrogen composition ( δ 15 N) along with assessment quality traits in fossil cereal grains. Charred grains naked wheat barley were recovered Los Castillejos , an archaeological site SE Spain, continuous occupation ca. 1500 years starting soon after origin (ca. 4000 BCE) region. Crop water status yield estimated from Δ C...
Abstract In the context of a rapidly growing global population and significant climatic environmental change, there is an urgent need to produce nutritious food in sustainable manner. Some crops are underutilised Europe, despite their suitability local environments, viability for production potential improve diets. Rye ( Secale cereale ) has long history cultivation yet owing complex historical, socio‐cultural, socio‐political, socio‐economic agronomic factors. This paper explores...
Abstract This paper aims to define the first chrono-cultural framework on domestication and early diffusion of opium poppy using small-sized botanical remains from archaeological sites, opening way directly date minute short-lived samples. We produced initial set radiocarbon dates eleven Neolithic sites (5900–3500 cal BCE) in central western Mediterranean, northwestern temperate Europe, Alps. When possible, we also dated macrobotanical originating same sediment sample. In total, 22 samples...
This paper presents the history of introduction and expansion arboriculture during 1st millennium BC from South Iberian Peninsula to France. The earliest evidence at beginning hails south Iberia where it spread northward along peninsula’s eastern edge. different fruits (grape, olive, fig, almond, pomegranate apple/pear) arrived together in certain areas spite uneven distribution acceptance by local communities. Grape was crop with greatest diffusion. greater diversity crops southern half...
Résumé. À travers plusieurs études systématiques concernant la fouille du site de Lattes, les analyses semences et fruits archéologiques ont permis retracer l’évolution production, traitement consommation des végétaux entre fin premier âge Fer l’époque romaine (fin VIe s. av. J.-C.-IIe apr. J.-C.). Faisant valoir richesse potentialités exceptionnelles gisement, ce bilan recherche carpologique résume l’ensemble données disponibles pour aborder traits fondamentaux l’alimentation végétale:...
.- En el presente articulo pretendemos estudiar la economia vegetal de sociedad que habito en asentamiento Las Pilas (Mojacar, Almeria) durante periodo calcolitico (c. 2700-1800 a.C.) a traves del analisis los restos semillas y frutos han perdurado registro arqueologico. Los principales temas hemos abordado estructurado cuatro grandes bloques. El primero se refiere presentacion metodologia utilizada recogida tratamiento las muestras carpologicas. segundo deter minacion plantas utilizadas...
During the 1 st c. BC, evidence of cuit practices appear near banks Vidourle river, probably next to a trenched enclosure. They include crémation area associated with deposits votive vases, coins, fibulas and food offerings. Some décades after creation road station about 30 these are carried on within walled enclosure that is set up around an altar by middle Augustan period enlarged 25 AD. The deposits, nature which changes (disappearance fibulas, appearance altars lamps), continue until end...
