Micromorphological analysis of sediments from the Middle Stone Age site of Sibudu Cave, KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa, provides
a high-resolution sequence and evidence of site formation processes of predominantly anthropogenic deposits. This methodology
allows for a detailed interpretation of individual anthropogenic activities, including the construction of hearths and bedding
and the maintenance of occupational surfaces through the sweep out of hearths and the repeated burning of bedding. This analysis
also provides a context for evaluating other studies at the site relating to magnetic susceptibility, paleobotany, paleozoology,
anthracology, and studies of ochre. 相似文献

As in traditional societies today ancient societies probably selected different fuels to meet specific heat requirements. Char and ash, the end products of fire, are often found in abundance in archaeological contexts. These end products can provide information regarding (i) the original fuel resource and type, (ii) the characteristics of the fire and (iii) combined with other archaeological evidence shed further light on possible socio-economic activity(-ies) associated with that fire. The three main fuel resources would have been (i) modern vegetation, (ii) fossil fuel and (iii) animal by-products. Local availability and abundance would have influenced the choice made.In this study an experimental approach was adopted to try and distinguish between the three different fuel resources that are known to have been used by ancient societies (and continue to be used by traditional societies today) from their char and ash remains to help determine original fuel-type and understand the relative heating properties. For this end one fuel-type from each fuel resource listed above, namely wood, peat and cow dung, was chosen. 相似文献
