Chronology and Features of Microblade Knapping in Baikal-Yenisei Siberia during MIS 2
A new view on the formation and development of terminal-edge microblade knapping (TEMK) techniques (wedge-shaped cores) in the Baikal-Yenisei Siberia during the MIS 2 (Sartanian cryochron) is presented. Based on data from 54 sites with TEMK assemblages, we have developed a correct chronological scheme and provided a microknapping characteristic for all stages of the Sartanian cryochron for which data are available. For comparison, data on earlier…

Possibilities of Non-destructive Analysis of Stone Artifacts Using the Example of Materials from the Late Paleolithic Assemblages of the Southern Angara Region and Upper Lena
The results of non-destructive analysis of stone artifacts from siliceous rocks from the Late Upper Paleolithic (LUP) sites of the Belaya and Upper Lena Rivers are presented. X-ray fluorescence analysis carried out using a portable device (pXRF) and geometric-morphometric analysis of 3D models were selected as the main methods. The purpose of pXRF was to highlight criteria for differentiating rocks from different sites, issues of searching for so…
Problems of Interpretation of Multilayered Geoarchaeological Sites
The correctly documented stratigraphic position of cultural remains, as well as determining the nature of their inclusion in deposits (redeposited or in situ) are the basis for reliable geoarchaeological reconstructions. In a broad sense, cultural remains in deposits are defined as a “cultural layer / cultural level”. In world archeology, the study of cultural deposits is aimed at understanding the processes of site formation based on the symbios…
Faces of the Irkutsk School of Archaeology
Mikhail Gerasimov, a well-known Soviet anthropologist, the creator of a unique method of plastic reconstruction of the face from the skull, was born on September 15, 1907 in St. Petersburg. In 1912, the Gerasimov family moved to Irkutsk, where his father received the post of doctor of the Irkutsk resettlement center.
