Dear colleagues,
On behalf of the peer-reviewed open-access journal Quaternary (website : https://www.mdpi.com/journal/quaternary), I am pleased to announce a new Special issue entitled « Diet and Evolution of Quaternary Mammals in Eurasia and Africa ». Christine Steininger (COE, University of Witwatersrand, Johannesburg, South Africa), Jean-Philip Brugal (CNRS, UMR7269 LAMPEA, Aix-Marseille University, France) and I (CNRS, UMR7269 LAMPEA, Aix-Marseille University, France) are serving as Guest Editors for this issue.
This Special Issue will be dedicated to papers dealing with approaches related to Paleontology, Paleoanthropology, Ecometry, Isotopic biochemistry, Paleogenetic, Paleoecology, Zooarcheology, and Taphonomy.
The submission deadline is 30th December 2020 and papers may be submitted immediately or at any point until this deadline, as papers will be published on an ongoing basis. For more information on this Special Issue and submission guidelines, please visit the following page

Materials and Time: An Anthology
Scholars
from a wide spectrum of research fields are exploring the temporalities
of materials, each from their own disciplinary perspective.
We
invite texts of no more than 1000 words discussing the topic of
‘Materials and Time’ for a forthcoming transdisciplinary publication
and workshop. How authors wish to interpret this topic is left open,
but they should focus on a single material, however construed. We
welcome contributions from any discipline. Aspects of time to consider
might include:
o lifetimes, lifecycles, use, trajectories, persistence, endurance, ageing
o depletion, peak, criticality, erosion, alteration, degradation, conservation o re-use, remaining, recycling, returns, inheritances
o birthdays and anniversaries, death, decline, rebirth
o genealogies, time travel
o ephemerality, regimes of temporality, mimetism
o ages, epochs
o chronomarkers, signatures, records and measurements

o chronomarkers, signatures, records and measurements
Selected
texts will be included in an anthology publication on this broad topic
and their authors may be invited to a one-day workshop
to be held in 2021. The workshop will contribute to the development of
an interdisciplinary network on materials.
The deadline for submitting texts is April 30, 2020. Texts should be submitted at the following web address: https://materialbiographies.typeform.com/to/kqrGV7
