DOI: 10.1002/jqs.2826
Abstract: The timing and extent of late Middle Pleistocene glaciations in England and the southern North Sea are controversial topics. The recent Trent Valley Palaeolithic Project uncovered evidence for a post-Anglian, pre-Devensian glaciation that affected much… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/jqs.3414
Abstract: The Middle Pleistocene archaeological record of the southern Levant has proven key to understanding human evolution and intercontinental faunal biogeography. Knowledge of archaeological sites of that period in the southern Levant is biased, with most… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/jqs.3639
Abstract: The long sedimentary sequence of Notarchirico has yielded evidence of one of the earliest Acheulean manifestations in Europe and of recurrent hominin occupation, spanning from the end of the interglacial MIS 17 to the glacial… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/jqs.3727
Abstract: Middle to Late Pleistocene glacial – interglacial cycles appear to closely follow Milankovich cyclicity. This cyclicity has been observed to exert a discernible influence on both marine and terrestrial environments (EPICA community members, 2004; Lisiecki… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/jqs.70002
Abstract: The Florisian Land Mammal Age (FLMA; 773‐12 ka) is characterised by specialist, often extinct, grazing as well as wetland species, many of which are no longer present in the southern African interior. Middle Pleistocene FLMA faunal… read more here.

Constraining the Likely Technological Niches of Late Middle Pleistocene Hominins with Homo naledi as Case Study
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2021 at "Journal of Archaeological Method and Theory"
DOI: 10.1007/s10816-020-09501-7
Abstract: We develop a framework to differentiate the technological niches of co-existing hominin species by reviewing some theoretical biases influential in thinking about techno-behaviours of extinct hominins, such as a teleological bias in discussing technological evolution.… read more here.

Abstract: The Gruta da Aroeira (Torres Novas, Portugal), with evidence of human occupancy dating back ∼ 400,000 years, is one of very few Middle Pleistocene cave sites to provide a fossil hominin cranium in association with Acheulean bifaces… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.cub.2021.01.073
Abstract: Palaeogenomes provide the potential to study evolutionary processes in real time, but this potential is limited by our ability to recover genetic data over extended timescales.1 As a consequence, most studies so far have focused… read more here.
