Memory, on multiple timescales, is critical to our ability to discover the structure of our surroundings, and efficiently interact with the environment. We combined behavioural manipulation and modelling to investigate the dynamics of memory formation for rarely reoccurring acoustic patterns. In a series of experiments, participants detected the emergence of regularly repeating patterns within rapid tone-pip sequences. Unbeknownst to them, a few patterns reoccurred every ~3 min. All sequences consisted of the same 20 frequencies and were distinguishable only by the order of tone-pips. Despite this, reoccurring patterns were associated with a rapidly growing detection-time advantage over novel patterns. This effect was implicit, robust to interference, and persisted for 7 weeks. The results implicate an interplay between short (a few seconds) and long-term (over many minutes) integration in memory formation and demonstrate the remarkable sensitivity of the human auditory system to sporadically reoccurring structure within the acoustic environment.

“…2 MFA 66.893) of the same stele shows a warrior holding a similar axe 13. Another remarkable example from a later period is the relief of Anubanini (Morgan and Scheil 1893: 100-105) 14 , from Sarpol-i Zohāb (Iran), probably dated to the Early Old Babylonian period, which shows an epsilon-shaped blade riveted to the haft, very similar to the one presented here; the same blade is also found on two other reliefs from Sarpol-i Zohāb 15 . A similar epsilon-shaped blade can also be found on a rock-relief from Bitwāta (25 km NE of Sulaymaniyah, Iraq) 16 , with an inscription of Iddin-Sîn of Simurrum, probably also dated to the Early Old Babylonian period (Shaffer, Wasserman and Seidl 2003).…”

“…The monuments of the kings of Simurrum are rock reliefs and stelae that mark the extent of their military campaigns. The location of these monuments in the region of Bitwata (Fouadi 1978;Frayne 1990: 4.19.1-3;Farber 1998;Shaffer et al 2003) in a valley off the Rania Plain and in the area of Sar-i Pol-i Zohab (Frayne 1990: 4.18.1; Fig. 4), respectively, indicate the northern and southern reaches of the control of Simurrum at that time.…”

Recent palaeoenvironmental, historical, and archaeological investigations, primarily consisting of site reconnaissance, in the Shahrizor region within the province of Sulaymaniyah in Iraqi Kurdistan are bringing to light new information on the region's social and socio-ecological development. This paper summarises two seasons of work by researchers from German, British, Dutch, and Iraqi-Kurdish institutions working in the survey region. Palaeoenvironmental data have determined that during the Pleistocene many terraces developed which came to be occupied by a number of the larger tell sites in the Holocene. In the sedimentary record, climatic and anthropogenic patterns are noticeable, and alluviation has affected the recovery of archaeological remains through site burial in places. Historical data show the Shahrizor shifting between periods of independence, either occupied by one regional state or several smaller entities, and periods that saw the plain's incorporation within large empires, often in a border position. New archaeological investigations have provided insight into the importance of the region as a transit centre between Western Iran and northern and southern Mesopotamia, with clear material culture links recovered. Variations between periods' settlement patterns and occupations are also beginning to emerge.
