• Experimental funeral pyres can provide analogies for the use of fire in the manipulation of the deceased in the past. • Two experimental pyres were conducted in Crete, in which animal carcasses and skeletal remains in various stages of decomposition were burned. • Stable high temperatures can be achieved for many hours in both open (up to 1016.8 °C) and closed (up to 862 °C) pyres burning olive wood as fuel. • An open pyre can achieve higher peak temperatures, but with significant fluctuations due to wind. • A closed pyre can maintain stable high temperatures with less fuel, unaffected by environmental factors. The study of cremations in archaeology has presented significant challenges, particularly when examining the diverse burning conditions that can affect the combustion of the human body. The application of modern experimental methods can enhance our understanding of the use and technology of fire in the manipulation of skeletal remains. In the context of the TEFRA project, two burning events were conducted in Crete (one outdoor and one furnace pyre) involving the incineration of animal carcasses and skeletal remains in different stages of decomposition until complete calcination. In the open fire experiment, dry olive wood was used as fuel without any artificial intervention, while in the furnace experiment, the same wood was burned but a flame-torch was used as a booster at the beginning of the process. This paper presents an attempt to comprehend different burning dynamics through the recognition of external and internal factors that can influence fire intensity. The key results can be summarized as follows: (a) stable high temperatures can be achieved for many hours in both open (up to 1016.8 °C) and close-type (up to 862 °C) pyres involving the combustion of olive wood as a fuel; (b) the burning environment can affect the time necessary until the calcination of the skeleton, regardless of its stage of decomposition; (c) outdoor pyres are susceptible to external environmental factors such as weather, humidity, and wind intensity, which can result in greater temperature fluctuations; (d) increased personal presence and basic pyrotechnical knowledge are essential for any burning event, including the selection of appropriate fuel, the construction of an effective pyre, and the management of the fire during the burning process.

Scientific Reports, 2022
The aim of the study is to investigate mitochondrial diversity in Neolithic Greece and its relation to hunter-gatherers and farmers who populated the Danubian Neolithic expansion axis. We sequenced 42 mitochondrial palaeogenomes from Greece and analysed them together with European set of 328 mtDNA sequences dating from the Early to the Final Neolithic and 319 modern sequences. To test for population continuity through time in Greece, we use an original structured population continuity test that simulates DNA from different periods by explicitly considering the spatial and temporal dynamics of populations. We explore specific scenarios of the mode and tempo of the European Neolithic expansion along the Danubian axis applying spatially explicit simulations coupled with Approximate Bayesian Computation. We observe a striking genetic homogeneity for the maternal line throughout the Neolithic in Greece whereas population continuity is rejected between the Neolithic and present-day Greeks. Along the Danubian expansion axis, our best-fitting scenario supports a substantial decrease in mobility and an increasing local hunter-gatherer contribution to the gene-pool of farmers following the initial rapid Neolithic expansion. Οur original simulation approach models key demographic parameters rather than inferring them from fragmentary data leading to a better understanding of this important process in European prehistory.

We present the first ancient DNA data from the Pre-Pottery Neolithic of Mesopotamia (Southeastern Turkey and Northern Iraq), Cyprus, and the Northwestern Zagros, along with the first data from Neolithic Armenia. We show that these and neighboring populations were formed through admixture of pre-Neolithic sources related to Anatolian, Caucasus, and Levantine hunter-gatherers, forming a Neolithic continuum of ancestry mirroring the geography of West Asia. By analyzing Pre-Pottery and Pottery Neolithic populations of Anatolia, we show that the former were derived from admixture between Mesopotamian-related and local Epipaleolithic-related sources, but the latter experienced additional Levantine-related gene flow, thus documenting at least two pulses of migration from the Fertile Crescent heartland to the early farmers of Anatolia.

Literary and archaeological sources have preserved a rich history of Southern Europe and West Asia since the Bronze Age that can be complemented by genetics. Mycenaean period elites in Greece did not differ from the general population and included both people with some steppe ancestry and others, like the Griffin Warrior, without it. Similarly, people in the central area of the Urartian Kingdom around Lake Van lacked the steppe ancestry characteristic of the kingdom’s northern provinces. Anatolia exhibited extraordinary continuity down to the Roman and Byzantine periods, with its people serving as the demographic core of much of the Roman Empire, including the city of Rome itself. During medieval times, migrations associated with Slavic and Turkic speakers profoundly affected the region.

By sequencing 727 ancient individuals from the Southern Arc (Anatolia and its neighbors in Southeastern Europe and West Asia) over 10,000 years, we contextualize its Chalcolithic period and Bronze Age (about 5000 to 1000 BCE), when extensive gene flow entangled it with the Eurasian steppe. Two streams of migration transmitted Caucasus and Anatolian/Levantine ancestry northward, and the Yamnaya pastoralists, formed on the steppe, then spread southward into the Balkans and across the Caucasus into Armenia, where they left numerous patrilineal descendants. Anatolia was transformed by intra–West Asian gene flow, with negligible impact of the later Yamnaya migrations. This contrasts with all other regions where Indo-European languages were spoken, suggesting that the homeland of the Indo-Anatolian language family was in West Asia, with only secondary dispersals of non-Anatolian Indo-Europeans from the steppe.
