    • A preboreal elk (Alces alces L., 1758) antler from south-eastern Norway 

      Grøndahl, Finn Audun; Hufthammer, Anne Karin; Dahl, Svein Olaf; Rosvold, Jørgen (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2010)
      In 1895 a shed elk antler was found in a mire on a farm near Fluberg, in Søndre Land municipality in south-eastern Norway. The antler was first radiocarbon dated in 2008 and yielded the age 9,100 ± 50 BP (8,340 – 8,250 ...

    • Ancient DNA reveals a southern presence of the Northeast Arctic cod during the Holocene 

      Martinez Garcia, Lourdes; Ferrari, Giada; Hufthammer, Anne Karin; Jakobsen, Kjetill Sigurd; Jentoft, Sissel; Barrett, James Harold; Star, Bastiaan (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)
      Climate change has been implicated in an increased number of distributional shifts of marine species during the last century. Nonetheless, it is unclear whether earlier climatic fluctuations had similar impacts. We use ...

    • Ancient DNA sequence quality is independent of fish bone weight 

      Atmore, Lane Margaret; Ferrari, Giada; Martinez Garcia, Lourdes; van der Jagt, Inge; Blevis, Rachel; Granado, José; Häberle, Simone; Dierickx, Katrien; Quinlan, Liz M.; Lõugas, Lembi; Makowiecki, Daniel; Hufthammer, Anne Karin; Barrett, James; Star, Bastiaan (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)
      The field of ancient DNA (aDNA) typically uses between 50 and 200 mg of minimum input weight of bone material for the extraction of DNA from archaeological remains. While laboratory and analysis techniques have focused on ...

    • Demographic reconstruction from ancient DNA supports rapid extinction of the Great Auk 

      Thomas, Jessica E; Carvalho, Gary R.; James, Haile; Rawlence, Nicolas J.; Martin, Michael David; Ho, Simon Y.W.; Sigfússon, Arnór; Jósefsson, Vigfús A.; Frederiksen, Morten; Linnebjerg, Jannie F.; Castruita, Jose A. Samaniego; Niemann, Jonas; Sinding, Mikkel-Holger S.; Sandoval-Velasco, Marcela; Soares, André E.R.; Lacy, Robert; Barilaro, Christina; Best, Julia; Brandis, Dirk; Cavallo, Chiara; Elorza, Mikelo; Garrett, Kimball L; Groot, Maaike; Johansson, Friederike; Lifjeld, Jan Terje; Nilson, Göran; Serjeanston, Dale; Sweet, Paul; Fuller, Errol; Hufthammer, Anne Karin; Meldgaard, Morten; Fjeldså, Jon; Shapiro, Beth; Hofreiter, Michael; Gilbert, Marcus Thomas Pius; Knapp, Michael (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)
      The great auk was once abundant and distributed across the North Atlantic. It is now extinct, having been heavily exploited for its eggs, meat, and feathers. We investigated the impact of human hunting on its demise by ...

    • Historical demographic processes dominate genetic variation in ancient Atlantic cod mitogenomes 

      Martinez Garcia, Lourdes; Ferrari, Giada; Oosting, Tom; Ballantyne, Rachel; van der Jagt, Inge; Ystgaard, Ingrid; Harland, Jennifer; Nicholson, Rebecca; Hamilton-Dyer, Sheila; Baalsrud, Helle Tessand; Brieuc, Marine Servane Ono; Atmore, Lane; Burns, Finlay; Schmölcke, Ulrich; Jakobsen, Kjetill Sigurd; Jentoft, Sissel; Orton, David; Hufthammer, Anne Karin; Barrett, James; Star, Bastiaan (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)
      Ancient DNA (aDNA) approaches have been successfully used to infer the long-term impacts of climate change, domestication, and human exploitation in a range of terrestrial species. Nonetheless, studies investigating such ...

    • The preservation of ancient DNA in archaeological fish bone 

      Ferrari, Giada; Cuevas, Angelica; Gondek, Agata; Ballantyne, Rachel; Kersten, Oliver; Palsdottir, Albina Hulda; van der Jagt, Inge; Hufthammer, Anne Karin; Ystgaard, Ingrid; Wickler, Stephen; Bigelow, Gerald F; Harland, Jennifer; Nicholson, Rebecca; Orton, David; Clavel, Benoît; Boessenkool, Sanne; Barrett, James H; Star, Bastiaan (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)

    • Reconstructing the history of a fragmented and heavily exploited red deer population using ancient and contemporary DNA 

      Rosvold, Jørgen; Røed, Knut H.; Hufthammer, Anne Karin; Andersen, Reidar; Stenøien, Hans K. (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2012)
      Background Red deer (Cervus elaphus) have been an important human resource for millennia, experiencing intensive human influence through habitat alterations, hunting and translocation of animals. In this study we ...

    • Walruses on the Dnieper: new evidence for the intercontinental trade of Greenlandic ivory in the Middle Ages 

      Barrett, James; Khamaiko, Natalia; Ferrari, Giada; Cuevas, Angelica; Kneale, Catherine; Hufthammer, Anne Karin; Palsdottir, Albina Hulda; Star, Bastiaan (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)
      Mediaeval walrus hunting in Iceland and Greenland—driven by Western European demand for ivory and walrus hide ropes—has been identified as an important pre-modern example of ecological globalization. By contrast, the main ...
