Italy before the Neanderthals
Variation of the mandibular angle in Middle Pleistocene Homo, Homo neanderthalensis and Homo sapiens

Ugly stones sharpen the wits
This study examines Middle Palaeolithic lithic technology in Piedmont, with a focus on the use of quartz as the primary raw material. Due to the scarcity of local chert, the region’s lithic industries are dominated by quartz, which is mainly available in secondary deposits along watercourses. The stratified reference site is the Ciota Ciara cave, but surface lithic assemblages from Trino, Vaude Canavesane, and Baragge Biellesi were also considere…
La conception deweyenne de l’émotion collective dans l’expérience démocratique
John Dewey (1859-1952), philosophe pragmatiste américain, ne traite pas directement du thème de « l’émotion collective » dans son œuvre. Cependant, il semble attribuer dès ses écrits, psychologiques, de jeunesse, une place importante à l’émotion individuelle, en tant que fonction psychologique jouant un rôle moteur dans l’élaboration des conduites humaines. Ainsi, cet article se propose d’étudier la manière dont il serait possible de comprendre l…
Exploring occipital bone morphology in Homo fossils
The application of geometric morphometrics to fossils is often limited by the preservation quality and the scarcity of measurable landmarks. This challenge is exemplified by a newly discovered occipital bone fragment from the Middle Palaeolithic site of Ciota Ciara (Piedmont, Italy). The fragment preserves only four landmarks (lambda, inion, external occipital crest, and left asterion), which are insufficient for a comprehensive morphological ana…
From brain to endocast
Paleoneurology, a discipline within palaeoanthropology, aims to reconstruct the brains of extinct hominids using fossilized cranial remains. Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) and Computerized Tomography (CT scan) represent two distinct methodologies utilized in paleoneurology, each offering unique insights into ancient brain size, morphology, and variability. MRI is a non-invasive imaging technique and provides high-resolution images of soft tissu…
Through Time
Lithic use-wear analysis, through defining site function and allowing reconstructing of patterns of human occupation, can contribute to our understanding of archaeological palimpsests. The Ciota Ciara cave represents an excellent case study for this methodology. Multidisciplinary research so far conducted on the materials recovered from the atrial sector of the cave distinguishes three archaeological units from a Middle Palaeolithic occupation of…
Repenser la nature
Dans une période postpandémique, marquée par de multiples crises écologiques, la nécessité de repenser le rapport de l’être humain avec la nature est au centre non seulement de l’actualité politique, mais aussi de la réflexion philosophique. Pourtant, la prise en compte de la place de l’humain dans la nature comme de celle de la nature dans l’être humain n’est pas totalement nouvelle au xxie siècle. Ce geste théorique a été l’horizon philosophiqu…
Post-natal mandibular growth patterns in Neanderthal and Homo sapiens through a geometric morphometrics approach
Research in hominid growth and development studies serves to understand species specific evolutionary patterns and phylogenetic relationships between species. A particular focus is put on the investigation of the emergence of modern patterns of growth and development. Neanderthals, due to their morphological and phylogenetic proximity with modern humans are often used in these comparative studies. Research questions have focused on the moment in …
Age at death of a Late Middle Pleistocene Neandertal mandible from the Coupe-Gorge cave (Montmaurin, France)
In 1950, in Coupe-Gorge cave in Montmaurin (France), at a stratigraphic level dated to the Late Middle Pleistocene (~150ky) a fragmentary mandibular symphysis was discovered. We examined the fossil to estimate its age at death and assessed its taxonomical classification based on mandibular morphology. A μ-CT scan was performed on the fossil to study its dental development (the 2 permanent central incisors are included). One reference collection c…
Évolution du calvarium des hominines de la fin du Pléistocène moyen à l'apparition d'Homo sapiens
Le Pléistocène moyen voit l’émergence de nouvelles espèces et populations d’hominines : Homo sapiens en Afrique et les néandertaliens et les dénisoviens en Eurasie, dont l’ancêtre commun le plus récent aurait vécu en Afrique il y a environ 600 ka. Les hominines de cette période présentent une importante variabilité morphologique qui rend difficile leur attribution taxonomique et la détermination de leur position phylogénétique. Les processus évol…
Palaeoecological reconstructions of the Middle to Late Pleistocene occupations in the Southern Caucasus using rodent assemblages
Located at the crossroads between Africa, Europe and Asia, the Southern Caucasus is a prime location to study occupations byH. heidelbergensis,H. neanderthalensisand anatomically modern humans. Azokh Cave is an important site for the understanding of human evolution in its archaeological, palaeontological, environmental and ecological context. The main objective of this work is to use rodents to infer the climatic and environmental conditions tha…
Tracking behavioral persistence and innovations during the Middle Pleistocene in Western Europe. Shift in occupations between 700 and 450 ka at la Noira site (Centre, France)
The Middle Pleistocene hominin mandible from Payre (Ardèche, France)
Isolated teeth from La Ferrassie
Based on the previously known fossil samples and the new teeth reported here, there are currently a minimum of four adult and five immature Neandertal individuals coming from the "Grand Abri" and a minimum of two modern human adult individuals: one from "Grand Abri" and one from "Grotte." It is noteworthy that the spatial distribution of the recovered Neandertal remains is not restricted to the area where the LF1-LF 8 were found but now covers th…
New insights on the Monte Fenera Palaeolithic, Italy
Monte Fenera is a mostly carbonate hill at the southern border of the Western Alps. It hosts several archaeological sites, among them karstic caves bearing evidence of Palaeolithic occupation. These sites have a long history within Alpine archaeology—having been explored since the 19th century—but information on their stratigraphy, chronology, and formation remains incomplete. They are among the few cave‐sites occupied before the Alpine Last Glac…
The Fossil Human from Rabat-Kébibat (Morocco)
A Neanderthal deciduous human molar with incipient carious infection from the Middle Palaeolithic De Nadale cave, Italy
Nadale 1 expands the Italian Middle Palaeolithic fossil record and provides further information on Neanderthal dm1s in terms of dimensional and morphological variability. Furthermore, the presence of an incipient caries brings further data on Neanderthal diet
Between “vintage” and “avant-guard”, the Lower Palaeolithic settlements in Molise region (Italy)

L’Homme de Néandertal et ses comportements ont\nfait l’objet de nombreuses études qui ont mis en évidence\nune série de caractères anatomiques propres (caractères dérivés\nou autapomorphies) et permis l’attribution de nombreux\nrestes humains à cette espèce.

Thermoluminescent Dating of Neolithic and Chalcolithic Pottery From Sites in Central Portugal
S Samples of Neolithic and Chalcolithic pottery from nine sites in the Upper Alentejo and Estremadura regions of Portugal have been dated by the thermoluminescence method (quartz inclusion technique). The project was designed to help establish an absolute chronology for the Neolithic and Chalcolithic periods in this area, and to try to elucidate the chronological relationships between settlement sites and burial sites (‘dolmens’) in the same area…
