Lithic Miniaturization Provides a Signature of an MIS4-3 Southern Dispersal of Homo sapiens. [PDF]
Evol AnthropolABSTRACT Fossil and artefactual evidence shows Homo sapiens in Eurasia well before 75 ka. However, genetic evidence suggests all extant non‐African populations derive almost all of their ancestry from a dispersal that only diverged in the last 60–50 ka. In northern Eurasia, the Upper Paleolithic with its laminar blade knapping provides an archeological

Symmetry and Middle Paleolithic Points: A Case Study of Iran's Middle Paleolithic Points [PDF]
, 2021 Abstract The throwing capacity of Middle Paleolithic points has been an important issue since the discovery of the Neanderthal’s toolbox. Homos (Neanderthals or H. sapiens) made thrusting points with limited or no throwing capability in the Middle Paleolithic.

Early Upper Paleolithic Man and Late Middle Paleolithic Tools [PDF]
American Anthropologist, 1971 The appearance of anatomically modern Homo sapiens in Europe, the Near East, and Africa must represent either an in situ evolution of Neandertals or a migration. Those who suggest the latter claim a sudden replacement of Neandertals by anatomically modern Homo sapiens.

The Middle Paleolithic of Murcia
Treballs d'Arqueologia, 2021 Hi ha 36 jaciments del paleolític mitjà coneguts a la regió de Múrcia. Els jaciments a l'aire lliure són tots de superfície. Una concentració en els altiplans de Yecla indica que, per al cas del sílex, la variabilitat industrial observada pot explicar-se a través d'un model senzill en el qual el grau de reducció està en funció de la distància a les ...

Final Middle Paleolithic of Mongolia
Teoriya i praktika arkheologicheskikh issledovaniy, 2018 The sites with the Middle Paleolithic complexes are known all over the territory of Mongolia. In Western Mongolia they are discovered in the Kobdo river valley, on the eastern slope, and within the southern face of the Mongolian Altai. In the southern part of the country the Middle Paleolithic sites are located in the region of Arts-Bogdo ridge, in the

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract Neandertals are known to possess very distinctive traits in their bony labyrinth morphology, such as an inferiorly positioned posterior canal and a very low number of turns in the cochlea. Hence, the inner ear has been often used to assess the Neandertal status of fragmentary fossils.

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Human life history is derived compared to that of our closest living relatives, the great apes. It has been suggested that these derived traits are causally related to aspects of our ecology, social behaviour and cognitive abilities. However, resolving this requires that we know the evolutionary trajectory of our distinctive pattern of growth,

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This paper examines regional and chronological variations in Acheulean handaxe morphology during Marine Isotope Stage 11 (c. 425–365 ka BP) in Britain. Using a data set of 737 handaxes from 13 securely dated sites in East Anglia and the Thames Valley, we apply three‐dimensional geometric morphometric analysis to examine morphological ...

International Journal of Osteoarchaeology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The golden eagle (Aquila chrysaetos) nests in rock cavities where it accumulates prey bone remains during the breeding season. Because nests can be reoccupied from year to year, these faunal elements can form remarkable bone accumulations and, in the sub‐fossil record, be mixed with assemblages derived from human or other predator activities ...
