Thanks 🙏 I’ve been practicing since - still working on getting my thinning up to par (I’ve a lot of fat handaxes) but getting there.

With a bit of help and instruction, I was able to knock out this last year at one of James' courses held at Cresswell Crags.

My research interests include applications of digital technologies, including 3D scanning, to studying lithic artefacts, symmetry in Lower Palaeolithic bifaces and its relationship to aesthetic and reward experience & the use of early prehistoric lithic artefacts in folklore and magic.

Also, our recent study of the preponderance of giant handaxes in MIS 9 compared to the other marine isotope stages within the Lower Palaeolithic. doi.org/10.15184/aqy...

Some recent papers I've contributed to as part of the project include the reassessment of the "simple prepared cores" from the Lower Palaeolithic site of Purfleet, in which we suggest these are not prepared and thus not a precursor to true Levallois, which arrives in MIS 7. doi.org/10.1007/s419...
Making a U-turn on the Purfleet Interchange: Stone Tool Technology in Marine Isotope Stage 9 Britain and the Emergence of the Middle Palaeolithic in Europe - Journal of Paleolithic Archaeology
This paper re-examines earlier Palaeolithic core technology from British sites assigned to MIS 11, 9, and 7 using primarily a châine opératoire approach, with the objective of better understanding the...
