- This 37,000-word article is the primary output of a two-year Leverhulme project of which the first author was PI. It brought together and interpreted for the first time in a generation the archaeological data from the first nine millennia of the Holocene for the entire region of Mediterranean Africa (selectively including Egypt). Its principal evidential contribution is the first comprehensive database and web-GIS of all 1587 radiocarbon dates for this region with details of context, associated cultural and economic data, and references, harvested from a huge range of sources and stringently quality-checked.
