Animation and Graphic Narration in the Aurignacian
Palethnologie, 2015 What was the purpose of the images conceived and produced by prehistoric groups? Our research into the animation of these images leads us to propose a new method of analysis that shows their primary function to be narrative. The identification of mechanisms for graphic narration can help to decipher the exact content conveyed by these messages ...

The Aurignacian Viewed from Africa
Palethnologie, 2015 The Aurignacian technocomplex in Eurasia, dated to ~43-28 ka, has no direct archeological taxonomic equivalent in Africa during the same time interval, which may reflect differences in inter-group communication or differences in archeological definitions currently in use. Extinct hominin taxa are present in both Eurasia and Africa during this interval,

Evol AnthropolABSTRACT This paper reconceptualizes fashion as a deep‐time system of bodily communication rather than a byproduct of modern consumer societies. We define fashion as a socially transmitted system of bodily display in which patterned variation occurs within shared conventions of appearance.

Lithic Miniaturization Provides a Signature of an MIS4-3 Southern Dispersal of Homo sapiens. [PDF]
Evol AnthropolABSTRACT Fossil and artefactual evidence shows Homo sapiens in Eurasia well before 75 ka. However, genetic evidence suggests all extant non‐African populations derive almost all of their ancestry from a dispersal that only diverged in the last 60–50 ka. In northern Eurasia, the Upper Paleolithic with its laminar blade knapping provides an archeological
