Final Palaeolithic Cultures and the Middle Stone Age

1970
The Middle Stone Age or Mesolithic Period has lost something of the meaning originally attributed to it. With the close of the Wiurm glaciation, the west European area which dominated much of the last chapter loses its importance for the moment, and the centre of interest shifts to south-west Asia, where the human groups and the special circumstances ...

Final Palaeolithic settlements of the Campine region (NE Belgium) in their environmental context: Optical age constraints

Quaternary International, 2012
Abstract The sand sequences exposed at the archaeological sites of Arendonk-Korhaan and Lommel-Maatheide offer a unique means to study the possible relation between human occupation patterns and climatic and environmental changes during the Weichselian–Holocene transition in the Campine region (NE Belgium).

Copper-based pigments in the Palaeolithic? Identifying colour traces and revisiting the function of a Final Palaeolithic sandstone artefact from Mülheim-Dietesheim (Central Germany)

2023
Ongoing archaeometric investigations into a sandstone object from the Final Palaeolithic open-air site of Mülheim-Dietesheim[1] have initially identified it as a possible lamp. Excavations from 1976 on the southern bank of the Main River (east of Frankfurt) yielded an assemblage of lithics belonging to the Arch-Backed Point group, stratigraphically ...

The Rio Secco Cave, a new final Middle Palaeolithic site in North-eastern Italy.

2007
This article describes Rio Secco Cave, a newly discovered Middle Paleolithic site in the eastern Italian Pre-Alps. Sedimentary succession, faunal remains, lithic assemblages and one 14C date define a chronological range from OIS 3 to the Holocene with evidence of human presence at the end of the Middle Paleolithic.

Diachronic evolution in land use during the Final Palaeolithic and the Mesolithic in the Campine region (Belgium)

2007
Large-scale fieldwork over the past five years has shown that most Mesolithic sites in the Belgian Campine region are palimpsests, generated by repeated occupation. Due to the sedimentological context and post-depositional processes, these occupation episodes are stratigraphically indistinguishable.
