Vestiges humains des niveaux de l’Aurignacien ancien du site de Brassempouy (Landes) by Dominique Henry-Gambier, Bruno Maureille, Randall White

“…In sum, the anatomy of the European makers of the Aurignacian is so poorly known that it remains impossible to confirm that the early Aurignacian techno-complex is uniquely the product of anatomically modern populations.Although the intentional modifications of the Brassempouy human remains are presented in detail in a separate publication, we wish to emphasize here that, with primary Aurignacian burials being completely unknown, the modified human teeth from Brassempouy represent one of the rare traces of human intervention with dead bodies that might be interpreted as funerary behavior.…”

A Khwārazmian Saint in the Golden Horde: Közlük Ata (Gözlī Ata) and the Social Vectors of Islamisation by Devin DeWeese

“…Evidence from the Ilkhanid realm and the Chaghatay ulus in Central Asia suggests that the Islamizing role of Sufis in this era may be better understood within the framework of establishing social bonds between Sufi communities, often organized hereditarily, and nomadic communities whose traditional social structures had been destroyed by Mongol military reorganization and by relocation to more constricted pasturelands, in the midst of substantial sedentary populations, far from their original homelands. The social bonds included marital ties, but also involved relationships framed in terms of the initiatory bond between master and disciple ; the legitimacy of forming such bonds on a large-scale communal level, with groups or individuals willing to commit to a Sufi shaykh without fully committing to the most rigorous expectations of a Sufi disciple, had only recently been legitimised, in effect, in the works of prominent Sufis linked with the Suhravardī tradition, in the 12th and 13th centuries. …”
