New evidence of Neandertal butchery traditions through the marrow extraction in southwestern Europe (MIS 5-3).

PLoS ONE, 2022
Long bone breakage for bone marrow recovery is a commonly observed practice in Middle Palaeolithic contexts, regardless of the climatic conditions. While lithic technology is largely used to define cultural patterns in human groups, despite dedicating ...

Acceptance of evolution theory and understanding of human evolution among health sciences students in France: A national cross‐sectional study

Anatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.
Abstract Evolutionary theory provides a fundamental framework for understanding human anatomy and health. However, evolution acceptance and conceptual understanding are distinct constructs that may not co‐vary. This study aimed to assess (1) evolution acceptance and (2) knowledge of human evolution in health sciences students.

Integrating ZooMS and taphonomy further highlights differential processing of animal and Neandertal carcasses in the Quina Mousterian at Les Pradelles (Marillac‐le‐Franc, southwest France)

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The cave of Les Pradelles (Marillac‐le‐Franc, France) was repeatedly visited by Neandertals ~55 000 years ago and is a key site in discussions of Neandertal cannibalism. Excavations between 1967 and 1980 (Vandermeersch) and between 2001 and 2013 (Maureille/Mann) produced a rich faunal assemblage (>20 000 bones), alongside Quina Mousterian ...

Dental enamel hypoplasia and intra‐tooth isotope records as indicators of physiological stress and environmental variability in Early Pleistocene hippopotamids from Melka Kunture (Upper Awash, Ethiopia)

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Enamel hypoplasia results from temporary disruptions of enamel deposition during tooth development. It is widely used as an indicator of physiological stress in archeological and paleontological contexts; yet, its relationship with environmental conditions during tooth formation remains poorly constrained.

The Le Rozel footprints: snapshots of Neandertal groups in the Late Pleistocene. A combined morphometric and experimental approach

Bulletins et Mémoires de la Société d’Anthropologie de Paris, 2021
Hominin footprints represent brief moments of life and provide access to the locomotor and biological features of the individuals who left them. Because of the particular time scale that they represent and the information they provide, they make it ...

Is DNA metabarcoding an option for formaldehyde‐preserved zooplankton time series?

Limnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.
Abstract The recovery of amplifiable DNA from formaldehyde‐fixed (FF) zooplankton samples has long been considered problematic, but advances in degraded‐DNA retrieval have renewed interest in FF samples. To access the information stored in long‐term zooplankton time series, we evaluated methods for extracting amplifiable DNA from community samples ...

New Observations on the Human Fossils from Petit-Puymoyen (Charente).

PaleoAnthropology, 2011
The site of Petit-Puymoyen has yielded several Neandertal fossils as well as Mousterian stone tools. The anatomy of the PPm1 mandible has been the subject of comment in the past because it has been described as showing a combination of primitive and ...

Direct radiocarbon dating and stable isotopes of the neandertal femur from Les Rochers-de-Villeneuve (Lussac-les-Châteaux, Vienne)

Bulletins et Mémoires de la Société d’Anthropologie de Paris, 2006
Direct radiocarbon dating of the Neandertal femoral diaphysis from the Rochers-de-Villeneuve (Lussac-les-Châteaux, Vienne) has yielded an age of 45,200 ± 1,100 14C years B.P. (OxA-15257) [48,455 ± 1,878 cal. years B.P.], and stable isotope values of δ13C
