Summary: This article discusses the absolute chronology of collective burials in the Trzciniec Cultural Circle communities of the Middle Bronze Age in East Central Europe, using Bayesian modeling to determine the spread and period of the practice, as well as the duration of the largest cemetery in Lesser Poland Upland. Further results show the partial contemporaneity of burials and allow formulation of a spatial and temporal development model of the necropolis.

Summary: This article discusses the potential of using geophysical image analysis, excavations, and sedimentological studies to identify subterranean funerary architecture in two cases of double barrows from the Middle Bronze Age Komarow culture cemetery in Bukivna, Ukraine. The magnetometer prospection revealed anomalies within the extent of a double barrow, while excavations uncovered burnt wooden-clay constructions related to mortuary houses. Another double barrow in the Pidhoroddia cemetery was prospected by magnetometry, which did not reveal any similar anomaly, suggesting a possible lack of mortuary structure.

Summary: Magnetic mapping is a common method in archaeology to investigate sites. This study presents a two-step interpretation scheme that uses magnetic maps to infer social structure. It involves deriving magnetization distribution and quantifying building remains in terms of their magnetic moment. The approach is tested synthetic data and applied to a real site in Ukraine, providing evidence of the relationship between architecture and social status.

Summary: The evolution of multidrug resistance in Acinetobacter spp. poses a risk to the efficacy of our best antibiotics. The carbapenem-hydrolyzing class D beta-lactamase subfamily found in Acinetobacter spp. is particularly concerning due to its ability to confer resistance to carbapenems. By analyzing the structure and kinetics of the carbapenem-hydrolyzing class D beta-lactamase OXA-24/40, we discovered its preference for ertapenem and increased catalytic efficiency. These findings provide valuable insights for future inhibitor design efforts.

Summary: By sequencing 727 ancient individuals from the Southern Arc over 10,000 years, this study reveals the extensive gene flow between Anatolia and the Eurasian steppe during the Chalcolithic period and Bronze Age. Two streams of migration, transmitting Caucasus and Anatolian/Levantine ancestry northward and Yamnaya pastoralists southward, have shaped the genetic landscape of the region. The findings suggest that the Indo-Anatolian homeland was in West Asia, with secondary dispersals of non-Anatolian Indo-Europeans from the steppe.

Summary: This study presents the first ancient DNA data from various regions in Mesopotamia, Cyprus, and Northwestern Zagros, along with Neolithic Armenia. The results show that the populations in these areas were formed through the mixing of pre-Neolithic sources related to Anatolian, Caucasus, and Levantine hunter-gatherers, forming a continuous Neolithic ancestry pattern reflecting the geography of West Asia. The analysis of Pre-Pottery and Pottery Neolithic populations in Anatolia further reveals that the former resulted from a mixture of Mesopotamian-related and local Epipaleolithic-related sources, while the latter experienced additional gene flow from the Levant, indicating at least two migration events from the Fertile Crescent heartland to the early farmers in Anatolia.

Summary: Literary and archaeological sources, as well as genetic studies, provide valuable insights into the history of Southern Europe and West Asia. The elites of Mycenaean Greece were not genetically distinct from the general population, and there were individuals with steppe ancestry as well as those without, like the Griffin Warrior. Similarly, the central area of the Urartian Kingdom lacked the steppe ancestry found in the northern provinces. Anatolia displayed remarkable continuity throughout history, with its people playing a central role in the Roman Empire. Medieval migrations associated with Slavic and Turkic speakers had a significant impact on the region.

Summary: Class C Acinetobacter-derived cephalosporinases (ADCs) are crucial targets for inhibition in multidrug-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii. Characterization of ADC variants and development of compounds that inhibit all prevalent ADCs are both important. The boronic acid transition state inhibitor, MB076, shows inhibitory activity against seven different ADC & beta;-lactamase variants.
