This is a note of an expression of concern related to the publication titled “The oldest hominin butchery in European mid-latitudes at the Jaramillo site of Untermassfeld (Thuringia, Germany)” by Günter Landeck and Joan Garcia Garriga, published in Journal of Human Evolution, Volume 94, May 2016, Pages 53e71. In the opinion of the journal, the locationwhere thematerial was housedwas not stated accurately in the publication, and its accessibility for further study cannot be verified. The authors were asked to clarify the current location of all the material published, but they have been unable to do so adequately. This makes the veracity of provenience and modification claims difficult to verify in future research. The Journal has added additional instructions to authors at submission to ensure that all authors supply complete and accurate information about the location and accession of material, both at the time it was studied and, if different, at the time of publication (for example, if the material was on loan or not fully accessioned in a single institution at the time of study).
