, 2015 Azokh Cave is a Middle Pleistocene to Holocene site in Nagorno Karabagh (Southern Caucasus). The geographic region forms a corridor linking Africa, Europe and Asia, and was important for early hominin and other animal expansion. The study is based on detailed, systematic analyses of raw material, techno-typology, function, and post-depositional ...

Bone Diagenesis at Azokh Caves
Vertebrate Paleobiology and Paleoanthropology, 2016Bone diagenesis is a set of processes by which the organic and mineral phases and the structure of bone are transformed during fossilization. To understand how these processes have affected skeletal material recovered from Azokh Caves (particularly the organic preservation), we measured ‘diagenetic parameters’ of skeletal material from Holocene, Late ...

Charcoal Remains from Azokh 1 Cave: Preliminary Results
Vertebrate Paleobiology and Paleoanthropology, 2016We present here the results of the charcoal analyses from Unit II and Unit Vu from Azokh 1 Cave. The results from the anthracological study show a variable record with up to nine taxa, including variability within the identified genera or types. The most abundant taxon is Prunus, which represents 80% of the record in Unit II.

Archaeometry, 2017
Chemical weathering of archaeological material is well known; however, while there have been a number of experimental studies demonstrating different types and degrees of chemical alteration on faunal remains, little attention has been paid to stone tools, and the few studies that exist relate mainly to siliceous materials and water‐induced chemical ...

Geology and Geomorphology of Azokh Caves
Vertebrate Paleobiology and Paleoanthropology, 2016Azokh Cave is located in the Lesser Caucasus and is hosted in Mesozoic limestone. It comprises a series of karstic cavities, chambers and passageways that interconnect to form a larger cave network, the trend of which appears to have been influenced by fracture patterns in the bedrock.

Rodent’s assemblage from the Middle to the Late Pleistocene site of Azokh-1 cave (southern Caucasus)
2021Azokh 1 Cave is located in Southern Caucasus, being an important site for the understanding of human evolution in its archaeological, paleontological, environmental and ecological context. The site presents a continuous archaeological record ranging from Middle Pleistocene to Late Pleistocene with some Holocene infill at the top of the sequence ...
