Journal Article
Stantis, C., Maaranen, N., Kharobi, A., Nowell, G. M., Macpherson, C., Schutkowski, H., & Bourke, S. (2022). Jordanian migration and mobility in the Middle Bronze Age (ca. 2100–1550 BCE) at Pella. International Journal of Osteoarchaeology, 32(2), 339-357. https://doi.org/10.1002/oa.3069

The site of Pella, located in the foothills of the east Jordan valley, was a prosperous city–state throughout the Middle Bronze Age (MBA, ca. 2000–1500 BCE). As part of a widespread trading network, Pella enjoyed extensive socio-economic relationship...

Variation in Upper Plate Crustal and Lithospheric Mantle Structure in the Greater and Lesser Antilles from Ambient Noise Tomography (2021)
Journal Article
Schlaphorst, D., Harmon, N., Kendall, J., Rychert, C., Collier, J., Rietbrock, A., …Wilson, M. (2021). Variation in Upper Plate Crustal and Lithospheric Mantle Structure in the Greater and Lesser Antilles from Ambient Noise Tomography. Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 22(7), Article e2021GC009800. https://doi.org/10.1029/2021gc009800

The crust and upper mantle structure of the Greater and Lesser Antilles Arc provides insights into key subduction zone processes in a unique region of slow convergence of old slow-spreading oceanic lithosphere. We use ambient noise tomography gathere... Read More about Variation in Upper Plate Crustal and Lithospheric Mantle Structure in the Greater and Lesser Antilles from Ambient Noise Tomography.

Multi-isotope evidence of population aggregation in the Natufian and scant migration during the early Neolithic of the Southern Levant (2021)
Journal Article

Multi-isotope evidence of population aggregation in the Natufian and scant migration during the early Neolithic of the Southern Levant. Scientific Reports, 11(1), Article 11857. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-021-90795-2

Human mobility and migration are thought to have played essential roles in the consolidation and expansion of sedentary villages, long-distance exchanges and transmission of ideas and practices during the Neolithic transition of the Near East. Few is... Read More about Multi-isotope evidence of population aggregation in the Natufian and scant migration during the early Neolithic of the Southern Levant.

Multi-isotopic study of diet and mobility in the northeastern Nile Delta (2021)
Journal Article
Stantis, C., Kharobi, A., Maaranen, N., Macpherson, C., Bietak, M., Prell, S., & Schutkowski, H. (2021). Multi-isotopic study of diet and mobility in the northeastern Nile Delta. Archaeological and Anthropological Sciences, 13(6), Article 105. https://doi.org/10.1007/s12520-021-01344-x

The origin of the Hyksos dynasty (c. 1638–1530 BCE) is thought to be rooted in the Near East given the architectural features and burial customs present at the site of Tell el-Dabca, identified as the capital of Hyksos rule in the Eastern Delta of Eg...

Isotopic Compositions of Plagioclase From Plutonic Xenoliths Reveal Crustal Assimilation Below Martinique, Lesser Antilles Arc (2021)
Journal Article
Brown, J., Cooper, G., Nowell, G., Macpherson, C., Neill, I., & Prytulak, J. (2021). Isotopic Compositions of Plagioclase From Plutonic Xenoliths Reveal Crustal Assimilation Below Martinique, Lesser Antilles Arc. Frontiers in Earth Science, 9, Article 682583. https://doi.org/10.3389/feart.2021.682583

The chemical and isotopic compositions of volcanic arc lavas often show evidence for involvement of a sedimentary component during magma genesis. Determining where this sedimentary component is added to arc magmas is of vital importance for constrain...

Deciphering variable mantle sources and hydrous inputs to arc magmas in Kamchatka (2021)
Journal Article

The chemistry of primitive arc rocks provides a window into compositional variability in the mantle wedge, as well as slab-derived inputs to subduction-related magmatism. However, in the long-term cycling of elements between Earth's internal and exte... Read More about Deciphering variable mantle sources and hydrous inputs to arc magmas in Kamchatka.
