Out in the cold? A review of Early Middle Palaeolithic settlements in northern Central Europe, age data and geological preconditions for site formation and preservation

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

Paleolithic and Mesolithic of Istria [PDF]

, 2019
U ovom radu raspravlja se o razdoblju paleolitika i mezolitika na području Istre. Navedena prapovijesna razdoblja poznata su nam pomoću velikog broja arheoloških lokaliteta na kojima su pronađeni dokazi o prisutnosti prapovijesnog čovjeka.

Chironomid‐based summer temperature reconstruction of the Eemian–Weichselian transition at Lichtenberg, northern Germany

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

Drilling the Marathousa palaeo‐lake in Greece (Peloponnese): inferring the environmental context of a Middle Pleistocene archaeological site

Boreas, EarlyView.
The Megalopolis Basin is located in the central Peloponnese (Greece), a region that is situated along one of the primary Pleistocene biogeographical corridors for intracontinental hominin migration. The basin comprises several hundred metres of Plio‐Pleistocene sediments alternating between clastics and lignites.

Following the fat: food and mobility in the European Upper Palaeolithic 45,000 to 18,000 BP

, 2008
This article briefly reviews evidence describing the environmental context of Upper Palaeolithic occupation in Europe, and proposes that human population movement during winter and spring was limited due to problems obtaining ...

Towards an ‘absolute’ timing of biostratigraphic and environmental phases from the Saalian late glacial to the Weichselian pleniglacial in central Europe—Insights from a lacustrine succession in Lichtenberg, northern Germany

Boreas, EarlyView.
Palynological records are central to the biostratigraphic subdivision of the Late Pleistocene in central Europe. Yet many interglacial and interstadial phases—such as the Eemian, Brörup and Odderade—remain only poorly constrained in time due to limited numerical dating.

The Significance of Air Circulation and Hearth Location at Paleolithic Cave Sites

Open Quaternary, 2019
Hearths were constructed and used at Paleolithic cave and rockshelter sites in Africa, Europe and Asia as early as the late Lower Paleolithic period. The advantages of the use of fire have been widely researched for the last decades.

The Early Upper Palaeolithic open‐air site of Friedrichsdorf‐Seulberg, Germany, in the context of the northern central European Aurignacian

Boreas, EarlyView.
Our knowledge of the Early Upper Palaeolithic occupation in northern central Europe is very limited, and recent research at the open‐air site of Friedrichsdorf‐Seulberg in Hesse, Germany, provides important new information on the Aurignacian. The site is rather small (26.5 m2) and spatial analysis identified a central hearth with two associated ...

ANATOLIAN EPI-PALEOLITHIC PERIOD ASSEMBLAGES Problems, Suggestions, Evaluations and Various Approaches

Anadolu (Anatolia), 2003
There are a number of problems and considerable deficiencies on the chronology, terminology and data about the Anatolian Epi-paleolithic period. It has been necessary to offer some suggestions for the above mentioned queries. And we hopefully addressed to them with this paper.
