A multidisciplinary study of Iberian Chalcolithic dogs
Blaschikoff, Ludmilla; Daza-Perea, Arantxa; Requicha, J. F.; Detry, Cleia; Rasteiro, Rita; Guimarães, Sílvia; Ureña, Irene; Serra, OctávioDomesticated dogs have been present in the Iberian Peninsula long before other domesticated species, back to the late Palaeolithic period. Their origin is still uncertain, but dogs were already well established during the Chalcolithic period (ca. 5000–4000 BP). This study employed a multidisciplinary approach comprising osteometric, radiographic and palaeogenomic analyses to characterize Chalcolithic Iberian Ca...
The curious case of the Mesolithic Iberian dogs: an archaeogenetic study
Pires, Ana Elisabete; Detry, Cleia; Chikhi, Lounes; Rasteiro, Rita; Amorim, Isabel R.; Simões, Fernanda; Matos, José; Petrucci-Fonseca, FranciscoWe investigated the genetic, composition of six Canis remains from western Iberia, directly radiocarbon dated to 7,903-7,570 years (cal BP). They were identified as dogs via their qrchaeological and depositional context, osteometry, and a high percentage of aquatic diet shared with humans. For comparison, genetic data were obtained from an additional 37 Iberian dog remains from the Neolithic to Late Antiquity, ...

An osteometrical method for sexing cattle bones: the metacarpals from 17th cent...
Davis, Simon J. M.; Albarella, Umberto; Detry, Cleia; Ginja, Catarina; Götherström, Anders; Pires, Ana Elisabete; Sendim, Alfredo; Svensson, Emma M.Measurements taken on 47 complete and 44 distal fragments of cattle metacarpals from 17th century AD Carnide, Lisbon, separate into two groups. Comparison with 21 ancient DNA sexed specimens and modern specimens of known sex (seven Barrosã cows and a Barrosã bull), indicates that the Carnide metacarpals probably belonged to both cows and bulls/oxen. We use the 47 complete metacarpals as a “sexed reference sampl...
