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.

Journal of Quaternary Science, Volume 41, Issue 6, Page 896-914, August 2026.ABSTRACT While competition with large carnivores is likely to have shaped Middle Paleolithic hominins' subsistence behavior, palimpsested human and carnivore accumulations render the signal challenging to isolate. This study presents a detailed zooarchaeological and taphonomic analysis of a non‐anthropogenic faunal assemblage from a MIS 5 (~130–80 ka ...

Archaeometry, Volume 68, Issue 4, Page 674-686, August 2026.ABSTRACT Investigating why hominins adopted particular flake technologies during the Mid‐to‐Late Pleistocene is essential to understanding patterns of lithic innovation. This period witnessed the emergence of Levallois technologies (~350–250 ka) and later blades, each “replacing” earlier forms.

The Impact of Climate Change and Human Habitation on Long‐Term Ecological Stability
Global Ecology and Biogeography, Volume 35, Issue 8, August 2026.ABSTRACT Aim Direct human impacts and climate change jeopardise the stability of ecological systems. Recent trends are built atop a long history of vegetation change from the Pleistocene deglaciation and Holocene human population expansion. We aimed to model a long‐term measure of ecological stability over the last 20,000 years, a period that includes ...

Oxford Journal of Archaeology, Volume 45, Issue 3, Page 250-277, August 2026.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 ...

Late glacial environment and Late Paleolithic settlement in Southern Sweden
Journal of Nordic Archaeological Science – JONASQuatemary geological studies have resulted in a rather good view of the deglaciation of southem Sweden. Palaeoentomological analyses have shown that the climatic changes during the Late Glacial were much more dramatic than was k:nown earlier. Surveys in-tended to search for Late Palaeolithic settlement remains have provided several new finds ...

Sedimentology, Volume 73, Issue 5, Page 1722-1749, August 2026.ABSTRACT Deciphering sediment provenance is essential to understand depositional patterns and dynamics. This question is particularly important in archaeological contexts to constrain the sedimentological history of unearthed material—an information critically needed, for example, to estimate the age of the deposits—or to apprehend sediment movement ...

The use of bones as tools in Late Lower Paleolithic of Central Italy
Scientific ReportsAbstractThe Latium area in Italy has yielded rich evidence of Lower Paleolithic sites with both faunal remains, artefacts, and human fossil remains, such as the Ceprano human skull. Many are the sites where lithic industry has been found in association with bone industry.
