  • The Uluzzian and Châtelperronian

    Open AccessGiulia Marciani, Leonardo Carmignani et al.ARTICLEJournal of Paleolithic Archaeology2025

    The Châtelperronian and Uluzzian techno-complexes are identified in western Europe in the same stratigraphic position, between the late Middle Palaeolithic and other Upper Palaeolithic assemblages. Both industries include retouched artefacts with abrupt retouch and arched backs, and radiometric dating indicates that these two technocomplexes belong to the same window of time. Here, we provide a detailed, qualitative technological comparison of tw…

  • Stone Tools in Shifting Sands

    Open AccessIgor Djakovic, Morgan Roussel et al.ARTICLEJournal of Paleolithic Archaeology2024Cited by: 5References: 46

    The Middle to Upper Palaeolithic transition in France and northern Spain reflects the transition from Neandertals to Homo sapiens and the emergence of novel cultural entities and standardised blade and bladelet technologies between ~ 55 and 40 thousand years ago. The Châtelperronian stone tool industry represents the first unambiguous appearance of Upper Palaeolithic technologies in this region, and is traditionally considered as representing a g…

  • A Comparison of Châtelperronian and Protoaurignacian Core Technology Using Data Derived from 3D Models

    Open AccessSamantha Porter, Morgan Roussel et al.ARTICLEJournal of Computer Applications…2019Cited by: 11References: 26

    This study uses data extracted from 3D models to compare blade cores from the Châtelperronian and Protoaurignacian stone tool industries. These technocomplexes are at the center of the debate surrounding the interactions between Neanderthals and anatomically modern humans approximately 45 to 40,000 years ago. We created 3D models of lithic cores from the sites of Roc de Combe and Les Cottés using a standardized photogrammetry protocol. We then us…

  • Variations in glutamine deamidation for a Châtelperronian bone assemblage as measured by peptide mass fingerprinting of collagen

    Open AccessFrido Welker, Marie Soressi et al.ARTICLESTAR Science & Technology of…2017

    Peptide mass fingerprinting of bone collagen (ZooMS) has previously been proposed as a method to calculate the extent of the non-enzymatic degradation of glutamine into glutamic acid (deamidation). Temporal and spatial variation of glutamine deamidation at a single site, however, has not been investigated. Here we apply ZooMS screening of Châtelperronian and Early Holocene bone specimens from Quinçay, France, to explore temporal and spatial varia…

  • A Simple Photogrammetry Rig for the Reliable Creation of 3D Artifact Models in the Field

    Open AccessSamantha Porter, Morgan Roussel et al.ARTICLEAdvances in Archaeological Practice2016Cited by: 38References: 22

    Three-dimensional (3D) artifact modeling is becoming an increasingly utilized tool in archaeology. In comparison with other methods of 3D scanning, photogrammetry has the benefits of being relatively inexpensive, mobile, and more adaptable for use in field conditions. As part of a larger project to document variability in lithic production systems across the Middle to Upper Paleolithic Transition in Western Europe, we developed a photography rig …

    Solange Rigaud, Morgan Roussel et al.ARTICLEBulletin de la Société…2014Cited by: 16

    Le gisement des Cottés, situés aux marges sud-ouest du Bassin parisien, livre un abondant mobilier lithique et osseux des premières phases du Paléolithique supérieur (Châtelperronien, Protoaurignacien, Aurignacien ancien). Cette étude présente onze objets de parure découverts dans ce gisement à l’occasion des nouvelles fouilles et un artefact issu des anciennes fouilles. La série d’analyses mises en oeuvre pour ces éléments de parure met en évide…

  • Identification par l’expérimentation de la percussion au percuteur de calcaire au Paléolithique moyen

    Morgan Roussel, Laurence Bourguignon et al.ARTICLEBulletin de la Société…2009Cited by: 34

    Plusieurs « boules calcaires » ont été découvertes lors des fouilles récentes des niveaux Moustérien de type Quina du gisement de Chez Pinaud à Jonzac. Certaines de ces pièces portent des traces de percussion sur leurs parties saillantes. Or, ce type d’objets principalement identifié jusque-là dans des fouilles anciennes a souvent été interprété comme pierre de bolas par analogie au matériel ethnographique. Nous avons créé un référentiel expérime…
