Bone Refits and Implications for the Reconstruction of a Late Middle Palaeolithic Context: Unit A9 of Fumane Cave - Journal of Paleolithic Archaeology Refitting studies provide valuable data to deepen topics such as assemblage formation processes, post-depositional dynamics, settlement and spatial patterns, operational chains, and the definition and...

Thank you so much! From A9 unit some lithic refits have been tried, unfortunately with few results. You may remember the discoid core and flakes which were exceptionally documented in a concentration. A paper on bone refits has just been published on JPA link.springer.com/article/10.1...

Vlora, the first Neanderthal site in Albania! Archaeologists discover stone tools dating back over 40 thousand years! Dalani i Vogël and a piece of stone tool discovered during the excavationsAn international team, coordinated by the National Research Council, Institute of Environmental Geology and Geotechnical Engineering (CNR-IGAG) – and by the Department of Humanistic Studies of the University of Ferrara, in collaboration with the Institute of Albanian Archaeology, has discovered the first documented Neanderthal site in Albania

Glad to see that the paper on the first MP site of Albania is attracting so much interest! Especially thanks to Federica Badino and Rudenc Ruka and for managing the research

Not just a technique! An experimental approach to refine the definition of the bipolar anvil reduction in the Uluzzian - Archaeological and Anthropological Sciences The bipolar technique has been widely used across a wide range of prehistoric contexts, from the Lower Pleistocene to the Metal Ages, and is a defining feature of the Uluzzian technocomplex, evident i...

We are thrilled to announce the publication of our joint paper on the Bipolar knapping! An experimental-based approach to define the Bipolar as a systematic method in the Uluzzian

What about the taphonomy of #lithics in Pleistocene bear caves? Does anybody knows some works on short term human occupations in these contexts?
