The outcomes and recommendations formulated in this work result from a combination of my academic background as a prehistorian and my professional background as a civil servant of the United Nations, in which I specialized over the last 20 years in international cooperation for the conservation of natural and cultural heritage. This work revised the full spectrum of standard setting texts produced and adopted by the international community on heritage preservation and related matters over the last 70 years and justifies the confidence in the role of the World Heritage Convention of UNESCO in doing so. There is not a better instrument of international public law to merge natural and cultural heritages in an integrative multilateral approach and guidance, as does this unique legal framework, which encapsulates the complexity of our evolutionary heritage. However, the global scientific HEADS platform identified some gaps as well as possible improvements to be taken into consideration in order to apply the UNESCO 1972 Convention for the full benefit of the fragile and vulnerable physical conditions of our remote past. I analysed the full spectrum of the UNESCO decision-making process when examining new candidature proposals of sites not yet inscribed as well as the deliberations on the state of conservation of sites already inscribed on the World Heritage List. On the basis of the data elaborated and presented here, this dissertation proposes further recommendations and a clear applied research road map to be performed by the international community of researchers and policymakers based on the most recent discoveries and the state of the art of the collaboration between disciplines involved in human evolution research and preservation. On the basis of a critical revision of the application of the criteria that justify the Outstanding Universal Value over time, this work discusses and identifies the need for a specific chapter in 2 the Operational Guidelines of the Convention related to Pleistocene sites and properties related to non-sedentary populations. The International community at UNESCO, guided by the most advanced research and conservation knowledge, should set up specific rules and categories for inscription and standards for the integrated preservation of Pleistocene sites. These pages illustrate how to channel the process to pass from Pleistocene knowledge to a Pleistocene heritage, and how to avoid the useless distinction between the arrays of heritages: immovable, movable, intangible, documentary or molecular when defining the very nature of a site related to our early past as humans. Finally, my dissertation invites the research and conservation communities to merge practices and to set up a collaborative dialogue in the interest of our long-term cultural evolution. This dissertation conceives the origins of our remotest cultural diversity as a human capital, which can guide our species on its journey through the enormous challenges toward climate change and artificial intelligence. ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I dedicate my dissertation to my parents, Rosario and Florentino, who educated my curiosity and to Viktor who since the beginning understood my passion and boosted my commitment to strengthening the links between academia and the diplomatic multilateral UN context. I would like to thank Francesco Bandarin, as Director of the World Heritage Center of UNESCO, for his trust in my work and for his continuous support to HEADS as a tool for a better representation of the Prehistoric Heritage in the List. I am in debt with Ambassador María José Sansegundo for her engagement with the thematic project and her determination to convince the World Heritage Committee of the significance of dealing with the large timespan starting with the origins of our species. This dissertation has been supported by a multidisciplinary research community of more than 200 scholars that trusted the task of UNESCO and its role in involving science in the political decision making processes to better preserve our remotest past. Specially, I thank and recognize the remarkable role of the members of the scientific committee of HEADS: Professors Robin Dennell, Margherita Mussi, and Francois Semah. I am particularly thankful and indebted to Professor Nicholas Conard who persuaded me to go further in my research and to elaborate the basis of a second step of HEADS with this work. I also thank the scholars and colleagues of the Tübingen University: Jörg Linstaedter, Sibylle Wolf, Svenja Schray, Ewa Dutkiewicz, Jordi Serangeli, Johannes Krause, Mima Batalovic as 3 well as my colleagues of the University Complutense of Madrid: Alicia Torija and Manuel Domínguez Rodrigo. HEADS work was sustained on daily basis by Rachel Lewis, Chantal Connaughton, Penelope Kennan, Dorian Rommens, Anjelica Young and Sarah Ranlett and I thank them for their invaluable help. 4 EINE KRITISCHE ANALYSE DER INTERNATIONALEN STANDARDS FÜR FORSCHUNG UND ERHALTUNG DER STÄTTEN DES PLEISTOZÄN: DIE ZUKUNFT DES WELTERBES MENSCHLICHER EVOLUTION Zusammenfassung/Executive Summary Nuria Sanz Als Gesamt-Koordinatorin des UNESCO Thematic World Heritage Programme on Human Evolution: dispersals, adaptations and social developments (HEADS), war ich von 2008-2018 verantwortlich für die Steuerung und Leitung einer multilateralen Forschungs-Plattform, deren Aufgabe es war, durch einen interdisziplinären Ansatz die umfassende Erhaltung jener frühen Stätten zu sichern, die mit dem Prozess der

The first experiment observed free drawing after model presentation, using imitation task. From longitudinal observation of humans (N = 32, 11–31 months), the developmental process of drawing until the emergence of shape imitation was clarified. Adult chimpanzees showed the ability to trace a model, which was difficult for humans who had just started imitation. The sec- ond experiment, free drawing on incomplete facial stimuli, revealed the remarkable difference between two species. Humans (N = 57, 6–38 months) tend to complete the missing parts even with immature motor con- trol, whereas chimpanzees never completed the missing parts and instead marked the existing parts or traced the outlines. Cognitive characteristics may affect the emergence of representational drawings. The oldest representational drawings in existence are examining the drawing behavior of chimpanzees the upper Paleolithic cave drawings of Homo sapiens, (Pan troglodytes), humans’ closest living relatives. who drew animals with a variety of materials and Chimpanzees and humans share about 98.8% of the refined techniques (Beltran, 2000; Chauvet, Des- genome (Chimpanzee Sequencing and Analysis champs, & Hillaire, 1996).

    Abstracts of Reports and Posters Amira Adaileh The Magdalenian site of Bad Kösen-Lengefeld The open air site of Bad Kösen-Lengefeld is located in Sachsen-Anhalt, Eastern Germany. It was discov- ered in the mid 1950´s in the immediate vicinity of the famous Magdalenian site of Saaleck. Since that time, archaeologists collected over 2000 lithic artifacts during systematical surveys. The technological and typological analyses of the lithic artifacts confirmed the assignment of Bad Kösen-Lengefeld to a late Magdalenian. Furthermore, the investigation of the surface collections brought forward information about the character of this camp site, the duration of its occupation and the pattern of raw material procure- ment. The fact that Bad Kösen-Lengefeld is located in a region with more than 100 Magdalenian sites fostered a comparison of the lithic inventory with other Magdalenian assemblages. Thus, allowing to spec- ify the position of the Lengefeld collection within the chorological context of the Magdalenian in Eastern Germany. Jehanne Affolter, Ludovic Mevel Raw material circulation in northern french alps and Jura during lateglacial interstadial : method, new data and paleohistoric implication Since fifteen years the study of the characterization and origin of flint resources used by Magdalenian and Azilian groups in northern French Alps and Jura have received significant research work. Diverse and well distributed spatially, some of these resources were used and disseminated throughout the late Upper Paleolithic. Which changes do we observe during the Magdalenian then for the Azilian? The results of petrographic analysis and techno-economic analysis to several archaeological sites allow us to assess dia- chronic changes in economic behavior of these people and discuss the significance of these results.

TRYON Abstract The Aurignacian technocomplex in Eurasia, dated to ~43-28 ka, has no direct archeological taxonomic equivalent in Africa during the same time interval, which may reflect differences in inter-group communication or differences in archeological definitions currently in use. Extinct hominin taxa are present in both Eurasia and Africa during this interval, but the African archeological record has played little role in discussions of the demographic expansion of Homo sapiens, unlike the Aurignacian. Sites in Eurasia and Africa by 42 ka show the earliest examples of personal ornaments that result from extensive modification of raw materials, a greater investment of time that may reflect increased their use in increasingly diverse and complex social networks.

    Gilliane Monnier,* Gilbert Tostevin,⁑ Goran Pajović,** Nikola Borovinić,*** Mile Baković*** Nova istraživanja paleolitskog nalazišta Crvena Stijena, istorijski kontekst Abstract: The rockshelter of Crvena Stijena (Nikšić municipality, Montenegro) is one of the most important Paleolithic sites in southeastern Europe. Its 20-meter deep sequence of archaeological deposits spans the Middle Paleolithic through the Bronze Age. The Middle Paleolithic deposits themselves, which cover an astonishing 12 meters in depth, contain one of the longest records of Neanderthal occupation in the region. Since its discovery in 1954, the site has been the subject of two major research projects; the data they have produced have helped make it a critical type-site for the Paleolithic in the Balkans. In this paper, our goal is to introduce the aims and methodologies of the new research collaboration at Crvena Stijena that we established in 2016. We first present the site within the context of the Middle Paleolithic of the western Balkans. We then describe the history of research at Crvena Stijena, and summarize the results of the last project, which were recently published1. Finally, we describe the research questions that are guiding our new investigations, and the methods we are applying in order to answer these questions while preserving as much of the site as possible for future generations of archaeologists. Keywords: Middle Paleolithic, Neanderthals, Balkans, fire, stone tools I. Uvod Nova istraživanja se sprovode u kontekstu saradnje Narodnog muzeja Crne Gore i Univerziteta Minesota, uspostavljene 2016. godine. Njihova svrha je ispitivanje sloja srednjeg paleolita na poznatom lokalitetu Crvena Stijena.U ovom radu predstavljamo istoriju istraživanja na Crvenoj stijeni, koja je iskopavana od 1954.

Pisces Fish reInains froIn the MUInba Cave, Lake Eyasi by . P. H. GREENWOOD, East African Fisheries Research Organiz~tio~, Jinja, Uganda. Through the courtesy of Dr. U. LEHMANN of the Geologisches Staatsinstitut, Ham­ ,....... burg, I have been able to examine the fish remains collected froPl the Mumba Cave by .5\ l Professor KOHL-LARSEN'S 1938 expedition. Fish remains were obtained from the third (Homo sapiens; late Stone Age) and fifth ('Africanthropus'; Stillbay) strata, and comprise vertebrae,'neurocranial fragments and fin spines. The majority are slightly mineralized (as measured by their hardness and weight) and are lightly coloured, but a small proportion are dark brown in colour and are more heavily mineralized. Fossils from anyone depth usually show some intergra­ dation in hardness and coloration, but specimens in the "pale-soft" category predomi­ nate. In general, the bones are well preserved and consequently a high proportion (over 9st can be identified generically. But, since specific characters are not clearly reflected in any of the elements preserved, it is impossible tD name the species present. The material had been pre-sorted into collections from successive 20 cm depths within each horizon and will be described according to this grouping. 125 " ....., 0', .' .
