The Materiality of the Cloggs Cave Rockshelter's Painting, GunaiKurnai Country (East Gipplsland), Southeastern Australia

open access: yesArchaeometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The materiality of the white pigment motif at the Cloggs Cave rockshelter, near Buchan in GunaiKurnai Country (southeastern Australia), contains details about the cultural and environmental contexts in which the art was created and preserved. Here, we (1) present physicochemical analyses of the pigment composition; (2) explore implications for

Evaporitic Chert Provenance: Evaluating Petrographic and Geochemical Workflows for Source Discrimination

open access: yesArchaeometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Chert tools were widely used in prehistory by human societies due to their knapping suitability and availability, but their relatively uniform composition, especially in evaporitic cherts, complicates sourcing, requiring specialised analytical methods.

An uncomplicated introduction to representational measurement theory

open access: yesBritish Journal of Mathematical and Statistical Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract Measurement in psychology is often associated with psychometrics. Despite the theoretical insights afforded by psychometric methods, they represent only a restricted range of possible measurement approaches in the social sciences. Representational measurement theory (RMT) generalizes the logic of measurement developed in the physical sciences ...

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

open access: yesBoreas, 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

Refining the timing of Middle Pleistocene (MIS 12 to MIS 6) ice advances into northern central Europe: sedimentological analysis and single‐grain luminescence dating of glaciotectonic complexes and tunnel‐valley fills

open access: yesBoreas, EarlyView.
We summarize the current state of knowledge on the age of the Middle Pleistocene ice advances into northern central Europe and provide 25 new single‐grain feldspar luminescence ages of Elsterian and Saalian glacigenic sediments to constrain the age of the ice advances and their tentative correlation with marine isotope stages/substages.
