Doctoral Committee ________________________ Travis R.

I wish to first thank Nick Toth, Kathy Schick, Kevin Hunt and Claudia Johnson. They not only generously sacrificed their time and energy as members of my committee but offered unfailing support, friendship and ideas throughout all stages of this research. Nick and Kathy provided a stimulating environment at CRAFT and the Stone Age Institute for which I will always be grateful. Nick‟s impromptu experiments and “what would happen if…” questions served as a constant reminder of what makes this field so fun and interesting. Kevin always stressed that research should focus on simple, straightforward questions, not only because they are the most easily tested but because they often provide the most influential results. I have tried to take that advice to heart in this dissertation. To Claudia I am particularly indebted to the support and enthusiasm she has offered at all stages of this project, even though it has had little to do with her own research.

    West Coast From the famous Calanches de Piana until the bay of Calvi, walking along the coastline of Corsica's Regional park This hike sets o# from the calanques of Piano near Calvi, the coastal side of the regional park of Corsica. It follows the most beautiful stages of the Mare e Monti but also incorporates other interesting paths. The hike includes crossing the gulf of Porto and the Scandola nature reserve, which is classified as a world heritage site by UNESCO. Each day provides a new source of amazement. As the route is between the sea and mountains, this hike o#ers a wide variety of countryside: the famous sculptured rocks known as the calanches of Piana, paths zigzagging through the Corsican maquis and crossing former chestnut plantations, the chemin des douaniers (literally the customs path), which follows the ragged coastline of Corsica. Furthermore, your evenings will be spent in charming Corsican villages such as Piana and Ota where the houses made of red granite create an exceptional sight. The highpoint of the trip is arriving in Calvi; pottering around the cobbled streets of the citadel is a must. In spring, you will be delighted by the smells and the flowering of the maquis. In autumn, you will be dazzled by the lights. And for those seeking pleasure, there is the possibility to swim in the sea every day. Level of di&culty The walks are on good footpaths and trails, the terrain is varied but often rocky. You need to be used to walking and take regular exercise to enjoy this holiday.
