Zu unserem letzten Re-Toot möchten wir noch anmerken, dass in der eiszeitlichen #Archäologie ein Team, das nur aus #Frauen besteht, offensichtlich noch immer so ungewöhnlich ist, dass es selbst Teil der Schlagzeile bzw. des Artikels wird /
Regarding our last re-toot we want to remark that apparently an all #women team in Ice Age #archaeology is still so uncommon that it needs to be pointed out in the headline and the article:

📢 New publication announcement! We continue EAZ 59 (2) – Special Issue “An Ontological Turn for Archaeology?” with Gianpiero Di Maida’s contribution. The author revisits long-standing debates about Neanderthal cognition, while emphasizing ontological diversity and challenging distinctions between Neanderthals and anatomically modern humans.

13,000 years ago, Ice Age foragers in Germany used vivid blue azurite—the earliest known in Europe. Not for cave walls, but likely for skin or fabric.

Need to catch up with this book of archaeologist John Shea, since we often think on similar lines and he's a major expert of #Neanderthal vs #Homosapiens Middle East #Palaeolithic technology
Looks a comprehensive review of #Neanderthal Middle #Palaeolithic hunting strategies in #Europe. The 'cow herds' they talk about are #bison, of which the Neanderthal did plenty of indiscriminate killing, then picking the best bits.

Another good JRAI article (maybe a special archaeology issue?), here the Early Upper #Palaeolithic in #Britain, focus on #WoganCavern.

#FindsFriday! One of the oldest known musical instruments in the world: a #Palaeolithic #flute made from a #vulture bone some 38,000 years ago! This is one of eight known flutes found on the Swabian Jura. The finds suggest that music played an important role in this region.
Found in the Hohle Fels cave near Schelklingen.
On display at Urgeschichtliches Museum Blaubeuren, one of our branch museums.

Lived here for 30 years but only noticed this stone on the flower bed yesterday. Signs of repeated working? A lithic core?

Neanderthal's high nitrogen values usually lead to them being interpreted as hypercarnivore. But the original study suggests maggots in stored and putrefied meat as cause for the high values:
https://www.science.org/doi/10.1126/sciadv.adt7466
Die hohen Stickstoffwerte von Neanderthalern führen üblicherweise dazu, dass sie als Hypercarnivoren bezeichnet werden. Aber die Originalstudie legt Maden aus gelagertem & verrottetem Fleisch als Grund für die hohen Werte nahe.

Ich hoffe, die drei hatten einen schönen Tag am Meer und haben ein paar Knaller Jakobsmuscheln gefunden.
