A First Look at the Gravettian Open-Air Site Ollersdorf-Heidenberg (Austria): Recent Fieldwork and First Results on Stratigraphy, Chronology, Organic Preservation and Combustion Activity
Open AccessMarjolein D Bosch, Stephane Pirson et al.ARTICLEJournal of Paleolithic Archaeology2025
The Middle Danube region is a key area for understanding Upper Palaeolithic hunter-gatherer behaviours in a climatic context due to its long loess–palaeosol sequences and rich archaeological record spanning from the onset of the Upper Palaeolithic to the Last Glacial Maximum and beyond. Recently, new approaches focusing on high-resolution studies of the stratigraphy, geoarchaeological studies at microscopic scale and investigations of organic mat…
Fire Use During the Last Glacial Maximum: Evidence From the Epigravettian at Korman' 9, Middle Dniester Valley, Ukraine
Open AccessWilliam Chase Murphree, Cruz Ferro‐vázquez et al.ARTICLEGeoarchaeology2025References: 20
The Last Glacial maximum (LGM), spanning from 26.5 to 19 thousand years before present (ka bp ), is a period of extreme climatic degradation associated with reduced biomass production and resource stress throughout Eurasia. Arguably, one of the most fundamental tools for human survival during this cold and arid period was the ability to create, maintain and use fire. While fire is widely considered a ubiquitous tool in modern human behaviour, the…

The Late Palaeolithic Site of Kammern-Grubgraben (Lower Austria). Additional Data on Loess Stratigraphy and Palaeoenvironment
Open AccessPaul Haesaerts, Freddy DamblonARTICLEArchaeologia Austriaca2016
The combined stratigraphic, archaeological and chronological data gained at Kammern-Grubgraben since 1985 led to the establishment of a loess palaeosol reference sequence for Lower Austria covering the second half of the Late Pleniglacial. Extended to the Middle Dniester Basin, this approach allows the Kammern-Grubgraben data to be inserted into a high-resolution palaeoenvironmental record framed between c. 21,000 and 13,000 BP by a long series o…
Radiocarbon Chronology of the Late Palaeolithic Loess Site of Kammern-Grubgraben (Lower Austria)
Open AccessPaul Haesaerts, Freddy Damblon et al.ARTICLEArchaeologia Austriaca2016Cited by: 6
The open-air site of Kammern-Grubgraben is one of the rare find sites of Late Pleniglacial times. The stratigraphy comprises five archaeological layers, containing a high range of animal bones in addition to the stone implements. As there is nearly no charcoal preserved, carefully selected bones and teeth were used for radiocarbon dating

Early modern human settlement of Europe north of the Alps occurred 43,500 years ago in a cold steppe-type environment
Open AccessPhilip R Nigst, Paul Haesaerts et al.ARTICLEProceedings of the National…2014
Significance Modern humans dispersed into Europe and replaced Neanderthals at least 40,000 years ago. However, the precise timing and climatic context of this dispersal are heavily debated. Therefore, a new project combining paleoenvironmental and archaeological fieldwork has been undertaken at Willendorf II (Austria), a key site for this time period. This project has concluded that modern humans producing Aurignacian stone tools occupied Central…

ABA and ABOx Radiocarbon Cross-Dating on Charcoal from Middle Pleniglacial Loess Deposits in Austria, Moravia, and Western Ukraine
Paul Haesaerts, Freddy Damblon et al.ARTICLERadiocarbon2013Cited by: 8References: 11
Four charcoal samples from loess key sites in Austria, Moravia, and western Ukraine were submitted to ABOx (acid-base oxidation) pretreatment to compare results with the classical ABA (acid-base-acid) method. For this purpose, charcoal samples already dated in Groningen laboratory were selected from 3 archaeological sites: Molodova V in western Ukraine (subunit 10–1, ∼32.6 ka BP), Willendorf II in Austria (unit C4, ∼32.1 ka BP and unit C8, ∼38.9 …

Cadre stratigraphique et chronologique du Gravettien en Europe centrale

Dans le bassin du Danube moyen, les sites de Willendorf II (Autriche), de Dolní Vestonice, de Pavlov et de Stránská Skála (République tchèque) ont permis de reconstruire une séquence régionale bien documentée pour les loess du pléniglaciaire moyen (de ± 45 000 à 26 000 BP), tandis que le contrôle chronologique pour le pléniglaciaire supérieur et le Tardiglaciaire (de 26 000 à 10 000 BP) restait limité en raison du faible nombre de gisements du Pa…

Paul Haesaerts, Ilie Borziak et al.ARTICLEQuaternaire2003
The East Carpathian regional sequence established for the middle and late pleniglacial loess is based on records from the Palaeolithic sites Molodova V (Ukraine), Mitoc-Malu Galben (Romania) and Cosautsi (Moldova). The special importance of this long sequence lies 1) in the high quality of the pedosedimentary and climatic records favoured by the position of the three sites within the terrace system of the Driester and Prut basins and 2) in the hi…

Climatic Events and Upper Paleolithic Chronology in the Dniester Basin: New 14 C Results from Cosautsi
Open AccessPaul Haesaerts, Ilic Borziak et al.ARTICLERadiocarbon1997Cited by: 7
We discuss the radiocarbon chronology of the loess deposited during the Upper Pleniglacial (Isotope Stage II) for the key site of Cosautsi (Republic of Moldova), which presents some major problems in 14 C dating. Special care was paid to accurate microstratigraphic positioning of samples, collection of top-quality material (mainly conifer charcoal), and selection of uncontaminated pieces for dating and crossdating with bones by accelerator mass s…
