The adaptability of populations who inhabited this region during MIS-3 facing severe climatic conditions.
Selected remains for identifying the representative taxa studied in Malia. A) Proximal phalange (J19-92-UE9) and talus (J21-100-UE4) of Cervus elaphus; B) Talus (J20-6-UE17) of Capreolus capreolus; C) Left malleolus (J20-15-UE4) of Bison priscus; D) Talus (I19-58-UE9) and proximal phalange (J19-18-UE9) of Rupicapra pyrenaica; E) From left to right, a lower molar/premolar (K19-85-UE4), a lower p2 (I19-189-UE4) and a lower molar/premolar (K20-28-UE4) of Equus ferus.

Neolithic cannibalism in Spain’s Sierra de Atapuerca. New evidence of cannibalism among farming communities over 5,700 years ago. Victims were locals, not outsiders. Not linked to famine — likely tied to intergroup violence.

Two important papers for understanding the way of life (paleoecology and diet) in the Middle Pleistocene (pre-Neanderthals and Neanderthals) have been published today — one of them is ours. 🦴🦴🍗🍖☠️

He estado en la llanura del Nadab, en Australia, por donde pasó la Serpiente Arcoiris durante el Sueño. Cantó las rocas, las plantas, los animales y las personas y los trajo a la vida.->

Hay muchas formas de definir civilización. Una de ellas debería ser la capacidad de cuidar de la Tierra y de los seres que la habitan, de mantener y respetar la vida. Y desde este punto de vista, las comunidades aborígenes son de las más civilizadas del planeta.

Good observation. In Atapuerca sites it's not uncommon to see units labeled from top to bottom, particularly when the stratigraphy was first described during excavation, rather than based purely on sedimentological deposition. A non-standard but internally consistent convention.

One manuscript was left in limbo for months after the editor disappeared without notice. In another accepted article, it took me weeks just to get an invoice to pay the APC.

Normally, it wasn't much different from other online journals, but I've had three terrible experiences in a row.

📢 New paper out in Journal of Archaeological Science!
We present a regional analysis of fallow deer in Middle Paleolithic Levant and propose a methodological refinement for aging that has major implications for understanding human hunting behavior.
