The Last Glacial Maximum in the Tropics: Human Responses to Global Change, 30–10 ka
Open AccessA Leplongeon, Eslem Ben Arous et al.ARTICLEJournal of World Prehistory2025Cited by: 1References: 23
The world at 18,000 BP , published by Gamble and Soffer (The world at 18,000 BP. Vol. 2: low latitude, Unwin Hyman, 1990), represents the first, and so far the only, attempt at characterising and discussing the impact of the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM) on human societies on a global scale. At the time, they highlighted that research and data on the LGM in southern latitudes and the tropics in particular were scant. Since 1990, however, many sites …
An insight into Late Glacial fire-making toolkits: Two chert strike-a-lights at Le Colombier II rock shelter (Ardèche, France)
Open AccessEugénie Gauvrit Roux, Pierre‐antoine Beauvais et al.ARTICLEJournal of Archaeological Science…2025References: 5
While evidence of the daily use of fire during the Paleolithic is abundantly represented by hearth features, charcoals, or burnt faunal and lithic remains, west European fire-making tools are widely unknown. Specific traditions, however, yield quite often chert strike-a-light tools, and allow a glimpse into a very long technical history: these include the Mousterian of Acheulian Tradition in southwestern France and the Late Glacial in northern Eu…
Ormagi Ekhi (Georgia) and Middle Palaeolithic occupations in South Caucasus
Open AccessAna Mgeladze, Sandrine Prat et al.ARTICLEAntiquity2025References: 8
New excavations at Ormagi Ekhi in Georgia have revealed long-term hominin occupations during the Middle Palaeolithic (260-45 ka cal BP). Here, the authors present an overview of data from multidisciplinary analyses of the site, highlighting its potential for widening our understanding of hominin occupations in the South Caucasus
An integrative study of new environmental and cultural data from the Hoabinhian of Laang Spean Cave (Cambodia) including modern human remains
Open AccessValery Zeitoun, Antonio Pérez Balarezo et al.ARTICLEQuaternary Environments and Humans2024Cited by: 2References: 20
Although the Hoabinhian culture is renowned for its unifacial pebble tools and its discovery dates back more than a century, only a handful of sites provide complete information on this period. The site of Laang Spean, in Cambodia, has recently been described as a burial cave for the Neolithic period, but it was previously known as an emblematic Hoabinhian site for Cambodia. More comprehensive studies indicate that it offers a wide window onto th…

Fishbone artefacts from the Samrong Sen site, Cambodia, cast new light on Bronze Age networking between inland and coastal communities
Open AccessClara Boulanger, Simon Puaud et al.ARTICLEInternational Journal of…2020References: 9
In this paper, we examine previously unstudied archaeological fish remains recovered during Mansuy's first excavation in 1902 from the inland Samrong Sen midden site in Cambodia and which are currently stored at the Musée de l'Homme , Paris, France. The remains are dated by association to the Neolithic/Bronze Age between 2206 and 1892 cal. bc from a time when the development of metal age trade and exchange networks contributed substantially to th…

The First Anatomically Modern Humans from South-Eastern Europe. Contributions from the Buran-Kaya III Site (Crimea)
Open AccessSandrine Prat, Stéphane Péan et al.ARTICLECahiers du Centre de recherches…2018
The arrival of modern humans into Europe, their dispersal and their potential interactions with Neanderthals are still in debate. Whereas the first appearance of anatomically modern humans in Western Europe seems to be well understood, the situation is quite different for Eastern Europe, where data are more scarce. The Buran-Kaya III site in Crimea is of key importance to understand the colonization of Europe by anatomically modern humans and the…
Le site du pléistocène inférieur de Lunery-Rosières, la Terre-des-Sablons (France, région Centre, Cher): Unités sédimentaires, datations ESR, études géoarchéologiques, préhistoire
Jackie Despriée, Gilles Courcimault et al.ARTICLEQuaternaire2017Cited by: 5References: 19
Situé près du site paléontologique de Rosières, le site préhistorique de « la Terre-des-Sablons » à Lunery (Cher) a été découvert dans les années 1980 et environ 50 pièces taillées préhistoriques typologiquement attribuables à un Paléolithique très ancien (Mode 1) y avaient alors été récoltées dans une sablière exploitant des formations alluviales fossiles du Cher. A partir de 2003, des études pluridisciplinaires y ont été organisées en vue de mi…
Etude géoarchéologique du site acheuléen ancien de « la Noira », (Brinay, Cher, région Centre, France)
Jackie Despriée, Gilles Courcimault et al.ARTICLEQuaternaire2017Cited by: 5References: 9
Dans la vallée du Cher (région Centre-Val de Loire, France), les recherches menées depuis 2003 ont permis d’élaborer un cadre géologique, chronologique et paléoenvironnemental pour les systèmes fluviatiles et les sites préhistoriques associés. A Brinay (Cher), les alluvions sableuses de la nappe des Fougères qui ont recouvert le site acheuléen de la Noira ont été datées par la méthode ESR de 665 ± 55 ka (MIS 16/15). Sur ce site, les études géoarc…

En amont de Vierzon, le système fluviatile fossile du Cher est composé de sept nappes alluviales, quatre formations sableuses étagées sur le versant ouest de la vallée et trois formations emboîtées dans le fossé tectonique dans lequel coule actuellement la rivière. D’après les données géochronologiques (ESR) disponibles, ces formations se sont déposées entre environ 1 Ma et 60 ka. Le site acheuléen de la Noira (Brinay, Cher) est situé à mi-hauteu…

First results of archaeobotanical analysis from Neolithic layers of Buran Kaya IV (Crimea, Ukraine)
Aurélie Salavert, Erwan Messager et al.ARTICLEEnvironmental Archaeology2014Cited by: 1References: 11
This paper contributes to understand the palaeoenvironment and the exploitation of vegetal resources during the Mid-Holocene in the southern Crimean Mountains. To address these questions, we apply a multi-proxy approach based on charcoal, seeds/fruits and phytoliths analyses from Neolithic layers (5800–5300 cal BC) of Buran-Kaya IV, a rock-shelter located in the south of Crimean Peninsula. Charcoal analysis shows that the Neolithic groups have ex…
