The research sites are Hengistbury Head in Britain, Rekem in Belgium and a cluster of sites in the Neuwied Basin, in Central Rhineland. The case studies cover the period of the Lateglacial Interstadial complex, about 15,500 -13,000 cal years BP. The work aims at exploring the social practice of creating hunter-gatherer personhood in given social, temporal, spatial and material contexts. The discussion centres on the social and embodied nature of lithic technology as a means of negotiating the human person. In doing so, this study situates the discourse of the reciprocal and mutually constructing relationship between humans and objects at the core level of the individual. Placed within social archaeological theory, the research adopts an outlook of social practice as an active manner of involvement. Relational entanglements between humans and things can accumulate or enchain the physical and metaphorical resources of the world, consequently leading to stasis or transformation. Therefore this thesis demonstrates that continuity and change in the archaeological record are associated with expressions of self ontologies. Further, the work suggests that, in order to comprehend this material variability, it would be helpful to consider the Lateglacial as a dynamic process of hybrid engagements instead of a fixed chronological and cultural unit. ii TABLE OF CONTENTS TABLE OF CONTENTS .....................................................................................iii LIST OF FIGURES ............................................................................................viii LIST OF TABLES................................................................................................ xi DECLARATION OF AUTHORSHIP ...............................................................xiii ACKNOWLEDEGMENTS................................................................................ xiv CHAPTER ONE.................................................................................................... 1 Introduction...................................................................................................... 1 1.1 RESEARCH AIMS, QUESTIONS AND OBJECTIVES....................... 1 1.2 THE HUMAN-OBJECT RELATIONSHIP............................................ 2 1.3 REASONS FOR SELECTING THE LATEGLACIAL CASE STUDIES……………………………………………………………………………4 1.3.1 Problems with the European Lateglacial .......................................... 5 1.4 THE STRUCTURE OF THE THESIS.................................................. 10 1.5 SUMMARY........................................................................................... 11 CHAPTER TWO................................................................................................. 12 The social in archaeology: the case of the Palaeolithic............................... 12 2.1 INTRODUCTION ................................................................................. 12 2.2 THE SOCIAL AS CULTURAL (CULTURAL HISTORY APPROACH)........................................................................................................... 13 2.3 THE SOCIAL AS RATIONAL (PROCESSUAL APPROACH)......... 16 2.4 THE SOCIAL AS RELATIONAL (POSTPROCESSUAL APPROACH)........................................................................................................... 20 2.5 THE SOCIAL ARCHAEOLOGY OF THE PALAEOLITHIC............ 23 2.6 THE SOCIAL ARCHAEOLOGY OF THE LATEGLACIAL............. 27 2.7 SUMMARY........................................................................................... 31 iii CHAPTER THREE ............................................................................................. 33 Theoretical framework: identity and the distributed self.......................... 33 3.1 INTRODUCTION ................................................................................. 33 3.2 HUMAN IDENTITY............................................................................. 34 3.3 INDIVIDUALS, GROUPS AND NETWORKS................................... 36 3.4 THE INDIVIDUAL AND THE SELF: ASPECTS OF PERSONHOOD ................................................................................................................................. 40 3.5 EMBODIED IDENTITIES ................................................................... 46 3.5.1 Habitus, Performativity and Practice.............................................. 49 3.5.2 Social Agency and Practice ............................................................ 53 3.5.2.1 Agency and Structure .............................................................. 54 3.5.2.2 Agency, Objects and Life Cycles. ........................................... 55 3.6 IDENTITY, PRACTICE AND MATERIALITY ................................. 59 3.7 SUMMARY........................................................................................... 63 CHAPTER FOUR ............................................................................................... 65 Methodology................................................................................................... 65 4.1 INTRODUCTION ................................................................................. 65 4.2.

The Laacher See Tephra (LST) layer provides a unique and invaluable time marker in European sediments with increasing importance because it occurs just before the onset of the Younger Dryas (YD) cold event. As the YD begins ca. 200 calendar years after the LST was deposited, accurate determination of the radiocarbon age of this ash layer will lead to a more accurate age assignment for the beginning of the YD. On the basis of 12 terrestrial plant macrofossil 14C ages derived from sediments from Soppensee, Holzmaar and Schlakenmehrener Maar, we found an age of at least 11,230 ± 40 BP for the LST event.

  • Homes for Hunters? Exploring the Concept of Home at Hunter-Gatherer Sites in Upper Paleolithic Europe and Epipaleolithic Southwest Asia
    Current Anthropology Volume 60, Number 1, February 2019 91 Homes for Hunters? Exploring the Concept of Home at Hunter-Gatherer Sites in Upper Paleolithic Europe and Epipaleolithic Southwest Asia by Lisa A. Maher and Margaret Conkey In both Southwest Asia and Europe, only a handful of known Upper Paleolithic and Epipaleolithic sites attest to aggregation or gatherings of hunter-gatherer groups, sometimes including evidence of hut structures and highly structured use of space. Interpretation of these structures ranges greatly, from mere ephemeral shelters to places “built” into a landscape with meanings beyond refuge from the elements. One might argue that this ambiguity stems from a largely functional interpretation of shelters that is embodied in the very terminology we use to describe them in comparison to the homes of later farming communities: mobile hunter-gatherers build and occupy huts that can form campsites, whereas sedentary farmers occupy houses or homes that form communities. Here we examine some of the evidence for Upper Paleolithic and Epipaleolithic structures in Europe and Southwest Asia, offering insights into their complex “functions” and examining perceptions of space among hunter-gatherer communities. We do this through examination of two contemporary, yet geographically and culturally distinct, examples: Upper Paleolithic (especially Magdalenian) evidence in Western Europe and the Epipaleolithic record (especially Early and Middle phases) in Southwest Asia. A comparison of recent evidence for hut structures from these regions suggests several similarities in the nature of these structures, their association with activities related to hunter-gatherer aggregation, and their being “homes” imbued with quotidian and symbolic meaning. All of this is my home temporary, yet geographically and culturally distinct, exam- these fjords rivers lakes ples: the EP record (especially Early and Middle phases) in the cold the sunlight the storms Southwest Asia and the UP (especially Magdalenian) evidence The night and day of the fields in Western Europe.

  • The Archaeology of Britain's First Modern Humans
    The archaeology of Britain’s first modern humans Rob Dinnis∗ The sites of the first modern humans Research who occupied what is now Britain have been reduced to a handful by subsequent glaciation and the rise in sea level, and their assemblages have been further depleted because early excavators ignored the microliths. Confronting the challenges of this exiguous material, the author succeeds in painting a vivid picture of Aurignacian hunters following prey down the now submerged Channel River Valley, colonising the preferred hilly zones at the west of Britain. The presence of two types of bladelet manufacture suggests a lengthy or repeated period of subsequent occupation. Keywords: Britain, Europe, Upper Palaeolithic, Aurignacian, Paviland burin, burin busqu´e Introduction: the Aurignacian Indigenous European Neanderthals were replaced by incoming modern humans about 40– 35 000 BP. Although the intricacies of this event continue to be debated, there is broad consensus that the Aurignacian culture (c. 38–30 000 BP) was created by the first modern humans to successfully occupy the entire continent (e.g. Kozłowski & Otte 2000; Davies 2001; Zilhao˜ & d’Errico 2003; Conard 2006; Zilhao˜ 2006; Mellars et al. 2007; Joris¨ & Street 2008; Bailey et al. 2009). European Aurignacian assemblages are found from Russia in the east, to Britain, France and Iberia in the west. These assemblages contain conspicuous evidence for many capabilities and behaviours associated with extant humans, including complex language, music and symbolic material culture (e.g. Vanhaeren & d’Errico 2006; Conard 2009; Conard et al. 2009). The last decade has seen significant advances in our understanding of the Middle–Upper Palaeolithic transition (e.g.

  • Climatic Response to High-Latitude Volcanic Eruptions
    JOURNAL OF GEOPHYSICAL RESEARCH, VOL. 110, D13103, doi:10.1029/2004JD005487, 2005 Climatic response to high-latitude volcanic eruptions Luke Oman, Alan Robock, and Georgiy Stenchikov Department of Environmental Sciences, Rutgers–State University of New Jersey, New Brunswick, New Jersey, USA Gavin A. Schmidt1 and Reto Ruedy2 NASA Goddard Institute for Space Studies, New York, New York, USA Received 4 October 2004; revised 16 February 2005; accepted 21 March 2005; published 1 July 2005. [1] Strong volcanic eruptions can inject large amounts of SO2 into the lower stratosphere, which over time, are converted into sulfate aerosols and have the potential to impact climate. Aerosols from tropical volcanic eruptions like the 1991 Mount Pinatubo eruption spread over the entire globe, whereas high-latitude eruptions typically have aerosols which remain in the hemisphere in which they where injected. This causes their largest radiative forcing to be extratropical, and the climate response should be different from that of tropical eruptions. We conducted a 20-member ensemble simulation of the climate response to the Katmai eruption (58°N) of 6 June 1912 using the NASA Goddard Institute for Space Studies ModelE climate model. We also produced an additional 20-member ensemble for a 3 times Katmai (3x Katmai) eruption to see the impact the strength of the eruption has on the radiative as well as the dynamical responses. The results of these simulations do not show a positive Arctic Oscillation response like past simulations of tropical volcanic eruptions, but we did find significant cooling over southern Asia during the boreal winter. The first winter following Katmai and the second winter following 3x Katmai showed strong similarities in lower stratospheric geopotential height anomalies and sea level pressure anomalies, which occurred when the two cases had similar optical depth perturbations.

  • Vulkanismus Und Archäologie Des Eiszeitalters Am Mittelrhein
    Baales2_01(Text)_D 20.11.2003 11:42 Uhr Seite 43 MICHAEL BAALES* VULKANISMUS UND ARCHÄOLOGIE DES EISZEITALTERS AM MITTELRHEIN DIE FORSCHUNGSERGEBNISSE DER LETZTEN DREISSIG JAHRE Kaum eine Region in Deutschland bzw. Mitteleuropa ist so reich an Aufschlüssen mit unterschiedlich al- ten Ablagerungen des Eiszeitalters (Pleistozän) wie das Mittelrheingebiet um Koblenz - Neuwied - An- dernach - Mayen (Abb. 1). Verdankt wird dies u.a. dem Vulkanismus der Osteifel, dessen wichtigste Hin- terlassenschaften – zahlreiche Schlackenkegel und mächtige Bimsdecken – seit vielen Jahrzehnten intensiv abgebaut werden. Vor allem diese industrielle Steingewinnung legte immer wieder Hinterlassenschaften des eiszeitlichen Menschen und seiner Umwelt frei, die besonders seit den 1960er Jahren untersucht wur- den. Die Eiszeitarchäologie im Mittelrheingebiet begann jedoch schon 80 Jahre früher, als Constantin Koe- nen am 10.2.1883 auf dem Martinsberg bei Andernach im Lehm unter dem späteiszeitlichen Bims des Laacher See-Vulkans Tierknochen und Steingeräte bemerkte. Er benachrichtige Hermann Schaaffhausen aus Bonn, der sogleich mit der Ausgrabung einer späteiszeitlichen Siedlungsstelle begann (H. Schaaff- hausen 1888). Die Grabungsgeschichte war damit für Andernach noch nicht beendet, folgten doch zwei weitere Ausgrabungsperioden in den späten 1970er/frühen 1980er Jahren (S. Veil 1982a; 1982b; 1984; G. Bosinski 1996; H. Floss u. T. Terberger 2002) sowie zwischen 1994 und 1996 (S. Bergmann u. J. Holz- kämper 2002; J. Kegler 2002). Nach den Pioniertaten H. Schaaffhausens dauerte es aber bis zur Mitte des 20. Jahrhunderts, bis ein wei- terer (spät)eiszeitlicher Fundplatz entdeckt und auch untersucht wurde.

  • Composition of Tephra of the Goldberg Volcano (West Eifel, Germany) and Search for Its Dispersion
    Quaternaire, 22, (1), 2011, p. 47-60 COMPOSITION OF TEPHRA OF THE GOLDBERG volcano (WEST EIFEL, GERMANY) AND SEARCH FOR ITS DISPERSION n Sébastien COOLS 1, Étienne JUVIGNÉ 1 & André POUCLET 2 Abstract Because of intensive exploitation of the Goldberg volcano (West Eifel Volcanic Field, Germany), in the past three decades, additional information has been obtained on its volcanological history and its products. Two important explosive events are recorded in the stratigraphic pile. An attempt is made to trace tephra of the volcano, by sampling soils in plateau position all around the volcano. However, the sampled sites also contained minerals from the Laacher See tephra that blanketed the area as demonstrated by the occurrence of a layer in the nearby Bragphenn peat bog. We performed electronic microprobe analyses, to discriminate between the pyroxenes from Goldberg and those from the Laacher See. Since the quantities of minerals drop rapidly away from the volcano, the Goldberg tephra cannot be traced beyond some 6 km. Nevertheless the dispersion is more important in westwards so that further discovery of the tephra can be expected especially in Upper Belgium. Our results allow us to shift the minimal age of the eruption from 11.6 ka BP to 25 ka BP. Keywords: Germany, Eifel, volcano, Goldberg, Laacher See, tephra, geomorphology, Upper- and Middle Pleistocene.

The people from each of these periods had different levels of technology and methods of survival. Palaeolithic The Palaeolithic began in Britain around 800,000 years ago when early humans, including Homo antecessor and Homo neanderthalensis, crossed the land bridge that connected Britain to mainland Europe. The cold temperatures of the last Ice Age had left most of Britain covered in ice and snow, rendering it uninhabitable. Interglacial periods, when the ice sheet retreated and the temperature warmed, allowed early humans to cross the land bridge and take advantage of the rich flora and fauna in Britain. Palaeolithic people who crossed the land bridge into Britain were hunter-gatherers. They developed tools made of stone to exploit the environment around them. Evidence of butchery on animal bones shows that they used these tools to hunt species including mammoth, red deer, hare and antelope. PALEOLITHIC SITES (Essex and Suffolk) Marks Tey Why is Marks Tey important? In the last Ice Age, most of Britain was covered by an ice sheet. The area that is now Marks Tey lay at the easternmost edge of the ice sheet. This was the edge of the habitable world for both humans and animals.
