Pleistocene Landscape Variability Recorded in the Homo-Bearing Dandiero Basin (Eritrea)
Unravelling Hominin Activities in the Zooarchaeological Assemblage of Barranco León (Orce, Granada, Spain)
Little is known about the subsistence practices of the first European settlers, mainly due to the shortage of archaeological sites in Europe older than a million years. This article contributes to the knowledge of the subsistence of the first Europeans with new zooarchaeology and taphonomic data from the Palaeolithic site of Barranco León (Orce, Granada, Spain). We present the results of the analysis of the faunal assemblages retrieved in the con…
Early Pleistocene stratigraphy, sedimentary environments, and formation contexts at Dmanisi in the Georgian Caucasus
Oldowan stone knapping and percussive activities on a raw material reservoir deposit 1.4 million years ago at Barranco León (Orce, Spain)
Use of meat resources in the Early Pleistocene assemblages from Fuente Nueva 3 (Orce, Granada, Spain)
Over the last few decades, several types of evidence such as presence of hominin remains, lithic assemblages, and bones with anthropogenic surface modifications have demonstrated that early human communities inhabited the European subcontinent prior to the Jaramillo Subchron (1.07-0.98 Ma). While most studies have focused primarily on early European lithic technologies and raw material management, relatively little is known about food procurement…
The stone tools from stratigraphical unit 4 of the Bois-de-Riquet site (Lézignan-la-Cèbe, Hérault, France)
Chronological and environmental context of the first hominin dispersal into Western Europe
The geochemistry of biogenic carbonates as a paleoenvironmental tool for the Lower Pleistocene Barranco León sequence (BL-5D, Baza Basin, Spain)
Early Pleistocene environments and vertebrate dispersals in Western Europe
The oldest human fossil in Europe, from Orce (Spain)
Carbon isotopic record of terrestrial ecosystems spanning the Late Miocene extinction of Oreopithecus bambolii, Baccinello Basin (Tuscany, Italy)
Earliest human occupations at Dmanisi (Georgian Caucasus) dated to 1.85–1.78 Ma
The early Pleistocene colonization of temperate Eurasia by Homo erectus was not only a significant biogeographic event but also a major evolutionary threshold. Dmanisi's rich collection of hominin fossils, revealing a population that was small-brained with both primitive and derived skeletal traits, has been dated to the earliest Upper Matuyama chron ( ca . 1.77 Ma). Here we present archaeological and geologic evidence that push back Dmanisi's fi…
The late Neogene-early Quaternary small vertebrate succession from the Almenara-Casablanca karst complex (Castellón, Eastern Spain)
Geology and chronology of the continental Pleistocene archeological and paleontological sites of the Orce area (Baza basin, Spain)
Characterization and provenance of the slabs of the Puigseslloses Megalith, Barcelona, Spain
The Puigseslloses megalith tomb (Barcelona, Spain) is located on the summit of a hill in the Vic Plain where the sedimentary rocks that were used in its construction do not crop out. A sedimentological and petrological characterization of the monument's slabs and a multidisciplinary analysis of the outcropping materials in nearby areas has allowed the identification of three possible source areas associated with the Paleogene Banyoles Marls Forma…
Long Plio-Pleistocene Terrestrial Record of Climate Change and Mammal Turnover in Southern Spain
Cyclostratigraphic analysis of the Pliocene Zújar section (Guadix-Baza Basin, southeastern Spain) has enabled the recognition of a number of climatically forced cycles reflecting alternating dry and wet periods. Peaks of aridity are recorded at ca. 3.95, 3.55, 3.2, 2.8, and 1.8 myr B.P. The first dry period at about 4.0 myr B.P. corresponds to the early Ruscinian Mammal age, while the second arid interval at about 3.6 myr B.P. corresponds to the …
Early human occupation of Western Europe
The lacustrine deposits infilling the intramontane Guadix-Baza Basin, in the Betic Range of Southern Spain, have yielded abundant well-preserved lithic artifacts. In addition, the lake beds contain a wide range of micromammals including Mimomys savini and Allophaiomys burgondiae and large mammals such as Mammuthus and Hippopotamus together with the African saber-toothed felid Megantereon . The association of the lithic artifacts along with the fo…
Los yacimientos del Pleistoceno inferior de Barranco León y Fuente Nueva 3 de Orce (Granada). Contribución al conocimiento del primer poblamiento humano de Europa
En los ltimos aos numerosas investigaciones han contribuido a un mejor conocimiento de los primeros habitantes de Europa. Si en los aos ochenta, Francia pareca situarse en el centro del debate con yacimientos como Chilhac, Soleilhac o Vallonet; los hallazgos en la regin del Cacaso y Oriente Medio (Dmanisi y Ubeidiya), la Pennsula Itlica (Ceprano) y la Pennsula Ibrica (Orce) en los aos noventa, han desplazado el debate a las puertas de Europa.

Refinements of the European Mammal Biochronology from the Magnetic Polarity Record of the Plio–Pleistocene Zújar Section, Guadix-Baza Basin, SE Spain
The magnetobiostratigraphy study of the 130-m-thick Zújar section (Negratı́n clays unit, Guadix-Baza Basin, Spain) provides a remarkable opportunity to improve the correlation of European mammal biostratigraphy to the Geomagnetic Polarity Time Scale. The occurrence of 12 well-defined magnetozones and four paleontological sites with diagnostic faunas ranging from the MN 15 biozone (Ruscinian) to the MN 17 biozone (Villanyian), leads to an unambigu…
