Eagle bones from Spanish cave reveal the long-standing Neanderthal jewelry tradition.
Ungulate mortality profiles are commonly used to study Neanderthal subsistence strategies. To assess the hunting strategies by Neanderthals, we studied ages at death of cervids and equids found in levels E, H, I, Ja, Jb, K, L M Abric Romaní sequence. These date between 43.2 ± 1.1 ka BP (14C AMS) 54.5 1.7 (U-series). The degree eruption development teeth their wear stages were determine these animals death, constructed using data. display prime dominated all analyzed levels, whereas variable...
Abstract Olduvai Gorge, nestled between the East African Rift Valley and Mozambique Belt, is key to understanding human evolution. Even though extensive archaeological palaeoanthropological findings have been unearthed here since 1930s, Middle Stone Age in this area has nonetheless received less attention than Oldowan or Acheulean. This paper presents lithic technology analysis of Dorothy Garrod Site (DGS), a newly-documented MSA site located at junction main gorge side Olduvai. DGS provides...
Abstract El Castillo Cave is one of the most important sites for understanding Middle and Upper Palaeolithic in Europe. Despite its importance, absence a widely used stratigraphic section with detailed lithostratigraphic descriptions correlations between different geological archaeological interpretations has led to confusion correct identification units lowermost, sequence. This study establishes new framework site, which can be accurately correlated previous studies generates solid working...
Ethological studies have shown that besides human groups, large-medium carnivores bone-collecting habits. The research developed since the last half of twentieth century has attempted to characterise carnivore's accumulations and identify them in archaeo-paleontological record. At present, we diagnostic criteria define produced by hyenids (mainly, Crocuta crocuta), thereby allowing us differentiate from other accumulating agents. faunal assemblage recovered at Early Pleistocene TD6.3 layer...
Two archaeological assemblages from the Sierra de Atapuerca sites show evidence of anthropogenic cannibalism. These are late Early Pleistocene level TD6-2 at Gran Dolina, and Bronze Age MIR4 in Mirador Cave. Despite chronological distance between these two assemblages, they share common feature that human remains exhibit a high frequency modifications (cut marks, percussion pits notches peeling). This could denote special treatment bodies, or else be normal result butchering process. In...
Large, conglomerate caves in north-eastern Iberia have been significant places since the Neolithic through to historical times; however, their significance during Palaeolithic has barely explored. This project is first systematic study of use these iconic geological landmarks among Pleistocene hunter-gatherers.
Abstract The variability in Neanderthal behaviour is one of the key debates Middle Palaeolithic archaeology. Here we present analysis lithic industry from a unit at Europe’s main sites: El Castillo Cave. Unit XXf1.1, dated to beginning MIS 4, an example human occupation during period population decrease. In this assemblage, technology organised with aim obtaining largest possible blanks environment which small-sized raw materials predominate, presence imported tools and clear differences...
Osseous industry has been observed at an increasing number of Neanderthal sites. Bone fragments were used for practical purposes, and a range bone shaping techniques employed. The variability tools in different assemblages reflects considerable functional diversity. However, no spear points have reported from these contexts. A comprehensive analysis point the Middle Palaeolithic site Abric Romaní (Barcelona, Spain) is presented. Through interdisciplinary, multi-technique, multi-scale...
