Towards an ‘absolute’ timing of biostratigraphic and environmental phases from the Saalian late glacial to the Weichselian pleniglacial in central Europe—Insights from a lacustrine succession in Lichtenberg, northern Germany

Boreas, EarlyView.
Palynological records are central to the biostratigraphic subdivision of the Late Pleistocene in central Europe. Yet many interglacial and interstadial phases—such as the Eemian, Brörup and Odderade—remain only poorly constrained in time due to limited numerical dating.

The Early Upper Palaeolithic open‐air site of Friedrichsdorf‐Seulberg, Germany, in the context of the northern central European Aurignacian

Boreas, EarlyView.
Our knowledge of the Early Upper Palaeolithic occupation in northern central Europe is very limited, and recent research at the open‐air site of Friedrichsdorf‐Seulberg in Hesse, Germany, provides important new information on the Aurignacian. The site is rather small (26.5 m2) and spatial analysis identified a central hearth with two associated ...

Small tools within Mode 2 technology in the Lower Palaeolithic of Italy: use-wear analysis of the chipped stone tools assemblage of the Latium site of Fontana Ranuccio (Italy)

IpoTESI di Preistoria, 2019
Recent technological studies of lithic assemblages from Levantine and European Late Lower Palaeolithic showed that the small size flakes (small tools) found in many sites of this period are relevant technological elements.

Biocultural Approaches in the Society for the Anthropology of Food and Nutrition: A Reflection on 50 Years

Culture, Agriculture, Food and Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT On the occasion of SAFN's 50th anniversary I reflect on the development of biocultural and human evolutionary approaches to human diet and nutrition. I maintain that SAFN and its predecessors the Committee (1974–1987) and then Council on Nutritional Anthropology (1987–2004) have modeled, fostered, and advanced biocultural work in anthropology ...

Journal of Lithic Studies, 2016
Over the last few decades it has been shown that Scotland was settled – or at least occasionally visited – during the late Upper Palaeolithic period. The finds include diagnostic artefacts of Hamburgian, Federmesser and Ahrensburgian typology, but since ...

Beyond Deterministic Fetal Programming: Intrauterine Exposures and the Multifactorial Origins of Adiposity

Obesity Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Excess adiposity is not a recently developed problem but has existed since at least the upper Paleolithic, allowing evolutionary selection pressures to adapt the physiology of the pregnant woman and the feto‐placental unit for maternal and fetal protection.

BRINGING BACK FAMILIAR FORMS: RECYCLING QUINA SCRAPERS AT THE LATE LOWER PALAEOLITHIC QESEM CAVE, ISRAEL

Oxford Journal of Archaeology, EarlyView.
Summary This study presents a technological analysis of 18 old patinated scrapers and spalls, mostly of Quina technology, that were recycled into new scrapers of the same type at the Late Lower Palaeolithic site of Qesem Cave, Israel (420–200 kyr). Recycling scrapers into the same Quina and demi‐Quina types offers a rare, controlled opportunity to ...
