The prehistoric site of Le Placard, Southwest France, was first explored 150 years. 19th-century excavations almost emptied the cavity, now surprisingly ill-known. This 150-year milestone grants an opportunity to look back at this exceptional site and what it can tell us about the Late Pleistocene hunting and gathering societies who dwelt there.
The diverse papers in this volume, published in honour of Professor de Balbin, cover a wide variety of the decorated caves which traditionally defined Palaeolithic art, as well as the open-air art of the period, a subject in which he has done pioneering work at Siega Verde and elsewhere.

Reveals the profound influence of the Denisovans and their hybrid descendants upon the flowering of human civilization around the world • Traces the migrations of the sophisticated Denisovans and their interbreeding with Neanderthals and early human populations more than 40,000 years ago • Shows how Denisovan hybrids became the elite of ancient societies, including the Adena mound-building culture • Explores the Denisovans’ extraordinary advances, including precision-machined stone tools and jewelry, tailored clothing, and celestially-aligned architecture Ice-age cave artists, the builders at Göbekli Tepe, and the mound-builders of North America all share a common ancestry in the Solutreans, Neanderthal-human hybrids of immense sophistication, who dominated southwest Europe before reaching North America 20,000 years ago. Yet, even before the Solutreans, the American continent was home to a powerful population of enormous stature, giants remembered in Native American legend as the Thunder People. New research shows they were hybrid descendants of an extinct human group known as the Denisovans, whose existence has now been confirmed from fossil remains found in a cave in...
La civilisation solutréenne surgit, courte et dense, à travers les traditions classiques européennes entre vingt-deux et dix-huit mille ans avant notre ère. Toutes ses composantes culturelles présentent à la fois une grande homogénéité et une opposition radicale avec les milieux qu’elle traverse. Arts, techniques, habitats, prédation atteignent des niveaux d’élaborations inouïs. Son impact semble avoir été déterminant dans l’histoire ultérieure du continent, spécialement dans la formation du Magdalénien (Lascaux) qui s’étendra ensuite beaucoup plus largement.
La irrupción de las técnicas radiométricas en el mundo de los estudios del Paleolítico desde hace ya más de 40 años ha revolucionado los métodos e incluso muchas de nuestras ideas acerca de la visión de esta etapa de la humanidad. Esta obra recoge todas las dataciones del Paleolítico cantábrico, pero no simplemente en forma de registro, sino comentadas y tratando de encajarlas en los esquemas hasta ahora elaborados sobre la cronología geológico-climática y la sucesión de culturas que conforman nuestra visión del Paleolítico regional.
This book provides an overview of the archaeological sites and cultural assemblages in the world and presents an archaeological database that has been established through two large-scale research projects conducted between 2010 and 2022. The projects were Replacement of the Neanderthals by Modern Humans (2010–2015) and The Cultural History of PaleoAsia (2016–2022), both of which were carried out with the aid of the Japanese Government. They deal with multi-disciplinary studies of the demise of more archaic hominins and the survival of anatomically modern humans. Although the database is designated PaleoAsiaDB, which may imply a focus on Asia, it incorporates the dataset collected from Africa and Europe by the Replacement of the Neanderthals by Modern Humans project. PaleoAsiaDB provides a list of more than 3,300 sites and 7,600 cultural assemblages of the Middle and Upper Paleolithic (Middle and Late Stone Age) of the Eastern Hemisphere as of 2020. This database is the first attempt of its kind to document the related sites of 200-20ka. The full version of the database is available at the University Museum on the University of Tokyo homepage.
Debut de Luke Healy en España Una irónica, íntima e inteligente autoficción que interpela a los problemas y anhelos de toda una generación. «La vida no es una carrera. No hay ganadores ni perdedores. A muchísimas personas les va mejor que a ti... y muchísimo peor», se repite Luke. Durante más de diez años, Luke Healy ha invertido toda su autoestima en su carrera. Pero entonces, casi de la noche a la mañana, parece que todo se desvanece. Con el telón de fondo de un clima global que cambia peligrosamente, La autoestima y el fin del mundo abarca dos décadas de tragicómico autodescubrimiento, hasta que a Luke se le presenta la posibilidad de que su obra renazca en Hollywood. Pero ¿a qué precio?¿Qué sucede cuando no eres quien necesitas ser? Y, en última instancia, ¿quién puedes ser en el fin del mundo? «Una exploración profundamente sentida de la felicidad, la confianza y las mentiras que contamos a nuestros amigos y a nosotros mismos». — The Guardian Best Graphic Novels of 2022
