Trente ans après Leroi-Gourhan, où en sont les paléolithiciens ?
Archaeologists specialising in the Palaeolithic owe Leroi-Gourhan many methodological advances, and the questions he raised are constantly being re-examined and broadened by prehistorians.

This article is a review of Slovenian Palaeolithic ‘art’ objects. Most were found quite some time ago and were described as ‘art’ by their excavators, who undertook no further examination and authentication. More recent finds, like the Mousterian ‘flute’, were thoroughly examined,but in the case of the flute, there is still no uniform agreement on ...

ABSTRACT Recent methodological development in phylogenetic inference has focused predominantly on molecular data. However, renewed interest in other data types, particularly morphological data, has followed from the increased recognition of the power of total evidence and tip‐dating approaches, including fossil data, for inference of time‐scaled trees ...

A re-examination of variability in handaxe form in the British Palaeolithic [PDF]
The antiquity of handaxes was first noted over 200 years ago (Frere, 1800) and since then archaeologists have attempted to categorise and explain them. We are now much closer to elucidating the answers to why and how they were made, what they were used ...

Found: The Palaeolithic of Qatar
The seeming lack of evidence for a Palaeolithic presence in Qatar has been enigmatic. This has now changed. Here we report on discoveries made by the PADMAC Unit during 2013/2014 and the far-reaching implications of these findings. Our preliminary analysis of the Qatar lithic assemblages — QSS25, QSS29 (PADMAC Unit collection) and A-group Site I and A ...

Population Genomics Insights into Pharmacogenomic Differentiation Between East Asians and Europeans
Genetic variation contributes substantially to interindividual and interpopulation differences in drug response, yet most pharmacogenomic studies remain biased toward European populations. Here, we systematically assessed pharmacogenomic variation across East Asians (EAS) and Europeans (EUR) using public genomic datasets and investigated the potential ...

The earlier Palaeolithic of Syria: settlement history, technology and landscape-use in the Orontes and Euphrates Valleys [PDF]
This thesis represents the first investigation to examine Lower and Middle Palaeolithic technological behaviour in Syria in its wider landscape context, focussing on material from the two main river valleys; the Orontes and the Euphrates.
