Thrilled to have won the Student Poster Prize at #ESHE2025! 🏆 Grateful for the opportunity to share my work on Lebanese fauna and for all the inspiring conversations throughout the conference!

Poster session at #ESHE2025 😊🦷

Great talk @armandofalcucci.bsky.social! Impressive depth of data analysis, and I really appreciated the open science approach. Finally, robust evidence that the Ahmarian and Protoaurignacian aren’t directly linked #Paleolithic #lithics 🏺🦣🧪

Podium talks Day 2 #ESHE2025 @jingzhang.bsky.social, K. Bretzke, G. Duller, @armandofalcucci.bsky.social, @giuliagallo.bsky.social, @jonathanreeves.bsky.social present exciting research on AI refits for lithics, use of operculum to push the limits of OSL, fire durations in the MP and so much more!

Co-organizing a session at #SAA San Francisco with T. Kovach: "Toward an Integration of Quantitative Approaches in #Lithic Analysis." A few spots still open! Abstracts due Sept. 4. Email me if you’d like to join the conversation: [email protected] #Archaeology #FlintFriday #FossilFriday 🏺

The split-based antler point from the Early Aurignacian sequence at Grotta della Cala, southern Italy, provides new insights into Early Upper Paleolithic osseous technology. Read our recently published paper: doi.org/10.1016/j.qu... #Palaeolithic #Archaeology #FlintFriday #FossilFriday 1/2 🏺🦣

🚨New paper alert!🧪 We explore the #Aurignacian at Grotta della Cala (southern Italy), providing robust evidence of human settlement shortly after the #CampanianIgnimbrite eruption (ca. 40 ka). 1/5 🌋 @tommyhigham.bsky.social @lucdoyon.bsky.social @boneslab.bsky.social & the University of Siena

New paper led by Annette Oertle out today focusing on our work at Castelcivita in Italy. A pleasure to work with our wonderful Italian colleagues. @katerinad.bsky.social www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Another exciting collaboration led by @armandofalcucci.bsky.social now out in Scientific Data! It's hard to underscore how meaningful it is to have data from these four sites excavated by different teams together in a single paper and available for anyone to access! 🏺🦣🧪

#NewPaperAlert: We're delighted to present The Open Aurignacian Project — an open-access 3D database of 2,000+ lithics from four key Italian Paleolithic sites. Paper 👉 doi.org/10.1038/s415... #FlintFriday #FossilFriday #3Darchaeology #OpenScience #DigitalHeritage @julienrs.bsky.social 🦣 🏺 (1/6) 🧵

A true honor discussing the #Fumane lithic assemblages with Prof. François Bon and many other colleagues from Ferrara, Liège, Pisa, and Toulouse at the #Aurignacian Roundtable in Ferrara. @umr5608traces.bsky.social @traceolab.bsky.social @gennaijacopo.bsky.social

🚨New paper alert!🧪 Led by @armandofalcucci.bsky.social, this paper explores the internal variability of the Protoaurignacian at Riparo Bombrini by analyzing lithic assemblages from layers A2 and A1, and a previously undescribed Early Aurignacian assemblage from layer A0. 1/4 🏺🦣

#NewPaperAlert: Our latest research at Riparo Bombrini shows how internal variability in the Protoaurignacian reflects shifting mobility and site-use strategies. 🏺 #Archaeology #Anthropology #Paleolithic #FlintFriday #FossilFriday @julienrs.bsky.social Link: www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

A great opportunity to meet so many inspiring colleagues—thanks to the organizers of the 'Variability within the Aurignacian' session for making it possible! @armandofalcucci.bsky.social @julienrs.bsky.social

In preparation for our paper on the Aurignacian from Grotta della Cala (Campania, southern Italy), I am happy to share a large #OpenAccess datasets of high-resolution #3D meshes of #lithics and #bone tools (n = 423): zenodo.org/records/1416... 🏺 #Archaeology #StoneTools #FlintFriday #FossilFriday

Happy to give my small contribution to this great OA initiative. Thanks for the trust, @pciarchaeology.bsky.social!

‪ Can we use mere stone flakes to track cultural change? @hannesrathmann.bsky.social and I test this with simple flake attributes & a newly developed statistical method! All data, methods and code are #openaccess www.nature.com/articles/s41... #archaeology #statistics #openscience Feedback welcome!

1/ #NewPaperAlert: Thrilled to finally share our new paper on #Fumane Cave after a long and time-consuming research process! 🏺 #Archaeology #Anthropology #Paleolithic #StoneTools #HumanEvolution #FlintFriday #FossilFriday Link: link.springer.com/article/10.1...

🧪 New paper alert! 🏺 Comparing Neanderthal and Modern Human Subsistence at Riparo Bombrini: An Integrated Archaeozoological, Multivariate Taphonomic, and ZooMS Analysis. This is Geneviève Pothier Bouchard's last PhD paper. I'm *thrilled* to see it out and flesh out our work at Bombrini 1/6

🚨 New paper alert 🚨 : A multimethod analysis for tracing Gravettian red ochre provenance at Arene Candide Cave (NW Italy)! Ochre was heavily used during the Gravettian period (31-22 ky ago), both in everyday and ritual contexts, so knowing where people acquired it from is important. 1/3
