“…This paper classifies the karst landscapes of the Petén Plateau and defines the Mirador-Calakmul Karst Basin by illustrating the distribution of its karst hydrologic features. Archaeological and spatial research of the Mirador-Calakmul area of Guatemala and Mexico has shown it to be a karst basin with geopolitical implications. …”

“…The dental enamel isotope data presented represent the first δ(18)O, δ(13)C(carbonate), and (87)Sr/(86)Sr values analysed from Imperial Roman Campania to date, providing data of use for comparative analyses of δ(18)O, δ(13)C, and (87)Sr/(86)Sr values within the region and for assisting in documenting human mobility in archaeological contexts. Full interpretation of the δ(18)O and (87)Sr/(86)Sr data presented here is provided in “Imperial Roman mobility and migration at Velia (1(st) to 2(nd) c. …”

“…As a result, the history of pig dispersal in the Philippines remains controversial, due to limited molecular studies and absence of archaeological evidence of pig domestication. This study provides the first comprehensive analysis of 184 complete mitochondrial DNA D-loop region from Philippine pigs to elucidate their early dispersal history by performing a phylogenetic comparison with wild boars and domestic pigs worldwide. …”

“…APPROACH: The three tomography systems—SkyScan 2214 (Bruker-microCT, Kontich, Belgium), Exciscope prototype (Stockholm, Sweden), and Xradia 620 Versa (Zeiss, Oberkochen, Germany)—were given 36 h to measure three medically relevant specimens, namely, zebrafish larva, archaeological human tooth, and porcine nerve. The obtained datasets were registered to the benchmark synchrotron radiation-based tomography from the same specimens and selected ones to the SkyScan 1275 and phoenix nanotom m(®) laboratory systems to characterize development over the last decade. …”

“…The anatomical description has many cognitive values—in both veterinary orthopedics and maintenance in zoos, biodiversity conservation, and reconstructing archaeological data about extinct animals. ABSTRACT: Since the Komodo dragon has been included on The International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) Red List of Threatened Species, it is crucial to know in detail its biology as there is a limited availability of research material on these animals—mainly those who died in zoos or whose remains were found in the wild. …”

Both from an archaeological and a genetic point of view, this region has been interpreted to be the center of a bidirectional corridor connecting West and East Africa, as well as a meeting point for populations coming from North Africa through the Saharan desert. …”
