The morphology of the Late Pleistocene hominin remains from the site of La Cotte de St Brelade, Jersey (Channel Islands)
Early Levallois core technology between Marine Isotope Stage 12 and 9 in Western Europe
Crossing the Human Threshold
Crossing the Human Threshold
Rethinking Human Responses to Sea-level Rise
This work provides new insights into human responses to and perceptions of sea-level rise at a time when the landscapes of north-west Europe were radically changing. These issues are investigated through a case study focused on the Channel Islands. We report on the excavation of two sites, Canal du Squez in Jersey and Lihou (GU582) in Guernsey, and the study of museum collections across the Channel Islands. We argue that people were drawn to this…
Behaviour and process in the formation of the North European Acheulean record
The emergence of the Middle Palaeolithic in north-western Europe and its southern fringes
The archaeology of persistent places
Discoveries from La Manche
Since 2010 a new field project drawn from major UK institutions including the UCL Institute of Archaeology, has focused research on the Palaeolithic and Mesolithic record of the Channel Island of Jersey. In this retrospective of five years of research the history of the project to date, its focus on the Middle Palaeolithic site of La Cotte de St Brelade and its growth into an international research team is charted. The formation of the La Manche …
The British Middle Palaeolithic
A new view from La Cotte de St Brelade, Jersey
Did Neanderthal hunters drive mammoth herds over cliffs in mass kills? Excavations at La Cotte de St Brelade in the 1960s and 1970s uncovered heaps of mammoth bones, interpreted as evidence of intentional hunting drives. New study of this Middle Palaeolithic coastal site, however, indicates a very different landscape to the featureless coastal plain that was previously envisaged. Reconsideration of the bone heaps themselves further undermines the…
The Emergence, Diversity and Significance of Mode 3 (Prepared Core) Technologies
Technology and Landscape Use in the Early Middle Palaeolithic of the Thames Valley
Becoming Neanderthals
1. Introduction 2. Historical Background Previous and Current Research Frameworks 3. The Earliest Middle Palaeolithic of the Thames Sites of the Lynch Hill/Corbets Tey Terrace (MIS 10-9-8) 4. Neanderthals of Southern Britain Sites of the Taplow/Mucking Terrace of the Thames (MIS 8-7-6) and Deposits of Equivalent Date 5. The Development of Neanderthal Behaviours in Early Middle Palaeolithic Europe 6. Changing Technological Practice and the Exploit…
