To this end, a group of Spanish monolingual old adults completed a Basque language ...
    • Landscape change in the Nile Delta during the fourth millennium BC: A new perspective on the Egyptian Predynastic and Protodynastic periods 

      Pennington, Benjamin; Wilson, Penny; Sturt, Fraser; Brown, Antony (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-01-21)
      The role environmental change may have played at the dawn of Egyptian history has been overlooked in comparison with other periods. Natural landscape changes taking place in the Nile Delta are argued here to have been a facilitating factor allowing, and possibly stimulating, socioeconomic changes leading to the ‘Lower Egyptian – Naqada Transition’ (LE-NT, c. 3350 BC). In this context, the LE-NT may ...
