Archaeometry, EarlyView.ABSTRACT We present the application of a new quantitative approach to space study in Palaeolithic cave art. Using GIS, we analysed the distribution and position of hand stencils in El Castillo cave to track the gestures and behaviours of Palaeolithic societies.

Application of Multi‐Method Dating for Understanding the Gravettian North of Moravia, Central Europe
Archaeometry, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This article presents the results of integrating three methods to assess the age of the Upper Palaeolithic site of Pietraszyn 11 (SW Poland), close to the Moravian Gate. Sediment chronology determined using optically stimulated luminescence produced promising, yet ambiguous results (51.0 ± 3.7 to 20.3 ± 0.7 ka).

Archaeometry, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The hypotheses of Senonian flint to be a prime source of prehistoric “chalcedony” flint artefacts from the Negev Desert (Israel) was not investigated in detail thus far. By combining trace‐element profiling with statistical interpretation, ten flint items from Nahal Zahal, an Early Pre‐Pottery Neolithic B site in the northern Negev, were ...

New Data about the Lower and Middle Palaeolithic in the Western Morava valley [PDF]
, 2014 A relatively small number of Lower and Middle Palaeolithic open-air sites have been registered in southeast Europe. There are only two regions where sites from this period have been systematically surveyed, and where they have been encountered in ...

Archaeometry, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This study evaluates the application of computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations, integrated with controlled fire experiments, to investigate combustion processes in semi‐closed spaces. The framework enables systematic modeling of smoke dispersal, particulate transport, and hearth performance under variable morphologies and ventilation ...

Boreas, EarlyView.The characteristics of settlement of Neanderthals in northern Central Europe during the earlier phases of the Middle Palaeolithic (Marine Isotope Stage 8–6) have been a matter of debate for decades, specifically regarding the population dynamics at such latitudes during the coldest phases. In this paper, we review the known archaeological record of the

Hunters of the Golden Age: The Mid Upper Palaeolithic of Eurasia, 30,000 - 20,000 BP [PDF]
, 2000 The period 30,000 to 20,000 BP can be aptly called the 'Golden Age' of hunter gatherers for a variety of reasons, spelled out in great detail by the 37 contributors to this impressive volume. In this period we find the first unambiguous burials after the

Boreas, EarlyView.Understanding the temperature variability of past interglacial cycles is essential to predict future climates. We present a new summer temperature reconstruction, based on the subfossil chironomid record from a small palaeolake adjacent to the Middle Palaeolithic site of Lichtenberg, northern Germany. The record spans from the Saalian late glacial over
