For our recent paper - on naive humans reinventing how to shape early stone tools - we did sth unusual and sth (hopefully) useful: We included an FAQ section in the supplementary material New methods may benefit from such FAQ's being included. [available at

I am revisiting sites described in earlier studies but also scanning the landscape for new exposures. This means stopping wherever road cuttings, riverbanks or eroded slopes expose sediments. In this part of the valley aeolian sediments often caps river gravels and alluvial fans.

Post-Doctoral Research Fellow in Ancient Environmental DNA:Whiteknights Reading UK
We are seeking a highly motivated Post-Doctoral Research Fellow to join our research team at Reading, focusing on sedimentary DNA (sedaDNA / environmental DNA) from soils and sediments from the project’s case study regions in Spain and North Africa. You will contribute to the reconstruction of past landscapes and human-environment interactions through the analysis of sedimentary DNA. This includes analysing samples from terraces, irrigated fields and archaeological sites, and using eDNA metagenomics and metabarcoding approaches for multi-species detection, with the aim of characterising changing plant and animal species diversity and richness over time. The position will involve fieldwork, laboratory work, data analysis, and collaboration with an interdisciplinary team of archaeologists, palaeoecologists and historians.

Between 50,000 and 20,000 years ago, South African societies radically reorganised their stone tool technology. Does this reflect cognitive evolution, or something else? Our analysis at Umhlatuzana suggests the latter.
