Reconstruction of human dispersal during Aurignacian on pan-European scale [PDF]

Nature Communications
The Aurignacian is the first techno-complex related with certainty to Anatomically Modern Humans in Europe. Studies show that they appeared around 43-42 kyr cal BP and dispersed rapidly in Europe during the Upper Palaeolithic. However, human dispersal is

New insights from the application of ZooMS to Late Pleistocene fauna from Grotta di Castelcivita, southern Italy [PDF]

Scientific Reports
The Middle to Upper Paleolithic cave site of Grotta di Castelcivita (Campania, Southern Italy) contains a key archaeological sequence exhibiting Late Mousterian occupation followed by the Uluzzian techno-complex and an Aurignacian sequence ...

Population dynamics and socio-spatial organization of the Aurignacian: Scalable quantitative demographic data for western and central Europe

PLoS ONE, 2019
Demographic estimates are presented for the Aurignacian techno-complex (~42,000 to 33,000 y calBP) and discussed in the context of socio-spatial organization of hunter-gatherer populations.

The Compositional Integrity of the Aurignacian [PDF]

Munibe Antropologia-Arkeologia, 2005
Para tener validez heurística, el Auriñacinese tiene que compartir características que co-ocurren sistemáticamente a través del espacio y tiempo. Para evaluar su integridad composicional, examinamos aquí los datos procedentes de 52 niveles identificados ...

Blade and bladelet production at Hohle Fels Cave, AH IV in the Swabian Jura and its importance for characterizing the technological variability of the Aurignacian in Central Europe. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2018
Hohle Fels Cave in the Ach Valley of Southwestern Germany exhibits an Aurignacian sequence of 1 m thickness within geological horizons (GH) 6-8. The deposition of the layers took place during mild and cold phases between at least 42 ka (GI 10) and 36 ka ...

The Early Upper Paleolithic Site Crvenka-At, Serbia–The First Aurignacian Lowland Occupation Site in the Southern Carpathian Basin

Frontiers in Earth Science, 2021
The Carpathian Basin is a key region for understanding modern human expansion into western Eurasia during the Late Pleistocene because of numerous early hominid fossil find spots.

Coexistence, Extinction and Survival-The Evolutionary History of Bison Species in Western Eurasia. [PDF]

Glob Chang Biol
European bison are one of the few large animals to survive the Ice Age, but modern populations are descended from 12 individuals following intensive hunting in the early 1900’s. We reconstructed their past genetic history using mitochondrial genomes from 135 bison skeletons, up to 50,000 years old, and identified two types of European bison and the ...

Last Interglacial–Glacial sequence of palaeosols and calcareous slope deposits at Verteuil (Charente, southwest France)

Journal of Quaternary Science, Volume 38, Issue 8, Page 1321-1336, November 2023., 2023
ABSTRACT The 12 m thick sequence of calcareous slope deposits and palaeosols exposed in a quarry at Verteuil (southwest France) has been studied and dated by optically stimulated luminescence. Emphasis was given to the identification and characterisation of palaeosols through geochemistry and micromorphology.
