Examining Gravettian and Magdalenian mobility and technological organization with IR spectroscopy [PDF]
Scientific ReportsArchaeologists can use the provenance of lithic raw materials to examine the movements, territories, and settlement dynamics of hunter-gatherers. Several studies have used macroscopic analyses to propose the long-distance transport of raw material during

Mapping the expansion of the Northwest Magdalenian [PDF]
Quaternary International, 2012 New paleoclimatic data for the Lateglacial clarify climatic phases during the Lateglacial. Cold climate played a key role in limiting Magdalenian expansion from southwest and central Europe This paper presents chronological and geographic data for the different climatic phases to map the expansion of the Magdalenian into northwest Europe. Specifically,
