Evidence from Buhais Rockshelter for human settlement in Arabia between 60,000 and 16,000 years ago [PDF]

open access: yesNature Communications
Several significant milestones in human evolution date to the period between 70,000 and 12,000 years ago, including the replacement of archaic humans, the global dispersal of Homo sapiens and the introduction of Upper Palaeolithic traditions. The Arabian

Palaeoenvironments and hominin evolutionary dynamics in southeast Asia [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
Secure environmental contexts are crucial for hominin interpretation and comparison. The discovery of a Denisovan individual and associated fauna at Tam Ngu Hao 2 (Cobra) Cave, Laos, dating back to 164–131 ka, allows for environmental comparisons between

Arid, mosaic environments during the Plio-Pleistocene transition and early hominin dispersals in northern Africa [PDF]

open access: yesNature Communications
The earliest archaeological evidence from northern Africa dates to ca. 2.44 Ma. Nevertheless, the palaeoenvironmental setting of hominins living in this part of the continent at the Plio-Pleistocene transition remains poorly documented, particularly in ...

The Cenozoic palaeoenvironment of the Arctic Ocean [PDF]

open access: yesNature, 2006
The history of the Arctic Ocean during the Cenozoic era (0-65 million years ago) is largely unknown from direct evidence. Here we present a Cenozoic palaeoceanographic record constructed from >400 m of sediment core from a recent drilling expedition to the Lomonosov ridge in the Arctic Ocean.

Multiple phases of human occupation in Southeast Arabia between 210,000 and 120,000 years ago

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
Changing climatic conditions are thought to be a major control of human presence in Arabia during the Paleolithic. Whilst the Pleistocene archaeological record shows that periods of increased monsoon rainfall attracted human occupation and led to ...
