Dr. Tsenka TSANOVA Max-Planck-Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology Deutscher Platz 6 D-04103 Leipzig Germany Dr. Tsenka TSANOVA Max-Planck-Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology Deutscher Platz 6 D-04103 Leipzig Germany Report for The Field Museum: Lithic Collection from the Site of Solutré (Eastern France, Region of Bourgogne, Department Saône-et-Loire) Dr. Tsenka TSANOVA America for Bulgaria Foundation Postdoctoral Fellow 2011-2012 The lithic collections from the open-air site of Solutré (eastern France, region of Bourgogne, department Saône-et-Loire) were brought from France to the Department of Anthropology at The Field Museum in the 1920s by Henry Field, the former Assistant Curator of the Anthropology Department (1926-1941). Introduction The Solutrean is one of the different sub-periods within the Upper Palaeolithic Period, and it appears in Western Europe (France, Spain and Portugal). The Solutrean era lasted about 3,000 years (21,000-18,000 years ago). The Solutrean people were skilled hunters who were well adapted to a rigorous, cold environment. In terms of lithic technology, their most significant creation was the manufacture of thin bifacial leaf points (Smith 1964). The study of the Solutrean collection today is significant because it comes from the largest eponym site of Solutrean culture. The site of Solutré is one of the first Paleolithic excavations in France that started in 1886, was abandoned, and then occasionally re- excavated many times until 1998. The Field Museum’s Solutrean collection probably comes from Trench 32 Terre Souchal, which was excavated in 1895-6 by Adrien Arcelin (Dalton 1968; see Combier 1955: 98). It represents more than 2,500 lithic artifacts from four different culture units: Magdalenian, Solutrean, Gravettian, and Aurignacian (from youngest to oldest). All these Upper Paleolithic cultures are products of anatomically modern humans, as confirmed by the excavated human skeletons (Combier 1955). Most of the collection can be linked to the Solutrean phase. More of the half of the 150 leaf- shaped points, characteristic tools for the Solutrean, have been analyzed using techno- typological and economical analysis. One of the important goals was to document the types of microfracture and fragmentation on the leaf points, which are marks characteristic of hunting activities. The collection from Solutré also contains many end- scrapers, burins and other Upper Paleolithic types of tools; many flakes resulting from the production of bifacial leaf points; and blades. The study of the Solutrean collections is important for two additional reasons: to discuss the hypothesis about the gradual development of the Solutrean from the Aurignacian (Laville, Rigaud et al. 1980) and to debate the “oversea” Solutrean hypothesis (Bradley and Stanford 2004; Straus et al. 2005; e.g. Wikipedia, online). The Site The open-air site of Solutré lies in the Upper Rhône Valley in Eastern France, below a limestone escarpment some 492.8 meters high (Fig. 1). Figure 1. Left: Map and location of Solutré in Eastern France; Right: View of the Rock of Solutré and the site at the base of the rock. The site was discovered by Adrien Arcelix in 1886. Three years later, G. de Mortillet chose Solutré to be the eponym site for this period (Combier 1955). For many decades, it was thought that the high density of horse skeletal remains in many cultural levels was the result of horses being driven off the cliff by groups of hunters. Arcelin proposed this notion in the early 1870s; however, Combier (1955) demonstrated that this notion had numerous faults, and the data he presented refuted the cliff-jumping hypothesis. Stratigraphic Data from the Old Excavation Combier’s review of the depositional and cultural sequences revealed at Solutré during excavations conducted between 1866 and 1925 shows that a stratified sequence exists for most of the site (Combier 1955:102). The superficial, most recent prehistoric levels are from the Neolithic period. The Pleistocene deposits from the top to the bottom of the Solutrean sequence are identified as follows: Upper levels: Magdalenian; Solutrean levels (named “Foyer de Renne”) with Evolved Solutrean and Middle Solutrean phases; 2 Intermediate levels: Gravettian (called “Magma de Cheval”); Evolved Perigordian and Typical Aurignacian levels; and Lower levels: Industries from lower hearth (Mousterian). The Collection The Field Museum collection from Solutré was studied by Joanna Dalton in 1968. It includes 2,041 flint artifacts, 500 fragments of fauna remains and 16 lots of earth samples. Dalton applied typological analysis and classification to around 97% of the flint collection (Table 1; Fig. 2). Taking into account the time and methods employed during the excavation, it is difficult to locate the stratigraphic context of the collection. Most of the lithic material (around 1,400 artifacts) is linked with the Solutrean phase (Foyer de Renne I to IV). More than 200 artifacts are without location, and 188 artifacts are supposed to have come from Gravettian and Aurignacian layers.

Composition and typological classification of the lithic material according to J. Dalton 1968 (total numbers, modified by T. Tsanova in 2012). Composition of the Collection and Studied Sample Most likely, the Solutrean material brought to The Field Museum was previously selected (Fig. 2). The main techno-typological groups in the collection are unretouched flakes and blades, debris, fragments of laurel leaf points, and endscrapers. 5 For this work, all lithics were observed and part of the collection was examined in more detail. A randomly selected sample of 254 various artifacts (more than 12% of the entire collection) was documented in a detailed database. Most of the analyzed lithics (N=171) are retouched tools linked to domestic and hunting activities on the site. About 100/171 artifacts are leaf points, the most typical tools for the Solutrean culture. Also, 83/254 unretouched pieces represent blades, flakes, and debris of the technological process. Most of the blanks are blades used for manufacturing endscrapers and probably also leaf points. The flakes in the collection are linked mostly to the shaping phase of the leaf points (Fig. 3). Figure 3. Solutrean lithic collection from The Field Museum. Techno-typological classification of the blanks. Raw Material and Conservation Almost all of the items in the collection are covered in a thick, whitish patina. The original color of the flint is not visible, and some pieces appear profoundly altered by weathering. The preserved cortex (rolled and fresh) indicates that the pebbles were collected in fluvial secondary deposits (river) and in primary deposit as well. Nevertheless, the edges of the artifacts are sharp and well conserved. The raw material is a tertiary continental flint with lacustrine fossils and homogeneous grain, opaque, and smooth. Few artifacts are not patinated and show that the used flint is grey and opaque in color, as is visible under the patina on some broken artifacts. Some artifacts are of gray homogenous flint with dark strips, and some others with spots could probably be the local Santonian flint (http://www.flintsource.net/flint/F_paron.html) (Fig. 4e). 6 Figure 4. Solutrean leaf points: a) Classification; b) Feuille de Saule; c) Laurel leaf point; d) Distal fragment of Feuille de Saule, with perverse and burin fracture; e) Blade proximal fragment from Santonian flint; f) Unifacial point made on blade detached by indirect punch percussion. 7 Techno-typological Preliminary Results The Solutrean collection from The Field Museum does not permit a discussion of the hypothesis about the local origins of the Solutrean from the previous Aurignacian and Gravettian cultures. Its stratigraphic context is unclear, and it lacks representative diagnostic material from Aurignacian and Gravettian units. It seems the Gravettian and the Aurignacian material from “Foyer de Cheval” is mixed, and it also contains some flakes from the manufacture of Solutrean leaf points. The latter group is composed of 188 artifacts, most of which are unretouched flakes and blades and a very small quantity of non-diagnostic retouched tools.

  • Two Modern Compositional Approaches
    Musical Aesthetics of the Natural World: Two Modern Compositional Approaches Eli Stine and Christopher Luna-Mega University of Virginia, McIntire Department of Music Throughout recorded human history, experiences and observations of the natural world have inspired the arts. Within the sonic arts, evocations of nature permeate a wide variety of acoustic and electronic composition strategies. These strategies artistically investigate diverse attributes of nature: tranquility, turbulence, abundance, scarcity, complexity, and purity, to name but a few. Within the 20th century, new technologies to understand these attributes, including media recording and scientific analysis, were developed. These technologies allow music composi- tion strategies to go beyond mere evocation and to allow for the construction of musical works that engage explicit models of nature (what has been called ‘biologically inspired music’). This paper explores two such deployments of these ‘natural sound models’ within music and music generation systems created by the authors: an electroacoustic composition using data derived from multi-channel recordings of forest insects (Luna-Mega) and an electronic music generation system that extracts musical events from the different layers of natural soundscapes, in particular oyster reef soundscapes (Stine). Together these works engage a diverse array of extra-musical disciplines: environmental science, acoustic ecology, entomology, and computer science. The works are contextualized with a brief history of natural sound models from pre- antiquity to the present in addition to reflections on the uses of technology within these projects and the potential experiences of audiences listening to these works. “Great art picks up where nature ends.” - Mark Chagall and aesthetics towards a more quantitative awareness of how The natural world has been a focal point for the arts since the natural world functions and evolves is present within a the Upper Paleolithic.

GRIFFIN The University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, Michigan The following is a list of dates obtained since the compilation of List XI in December 1965. The method is essentially the same as de- scribed in that list. Two C02-CS2 Geiger counter systems were used. Equipment and counting techniques have been described elsewhere (Crane, 1961). Dates and estimates of error in this list follow the practice recommended by the International Radiocarbon Dating Conferences of 1962 and 1965, in that (a) dates are computed on the basis of the Libby half-life, 5570 yr, (b) A.D. 1950 is used as the zero of the age scale, and (c) the errors quoted are the standard deviations obtained from the numbers of counts only. In previous Michigan date lists up to and in- cluding VII, we have quoted errors at least twice as great as the statisti- cal errors of counting, to take account of other errors in the over-all process. If the reader wishes to obtain a standard deviation figure which will allow ample room for the many sources of error in the dating process, we suggest doubling the figures that are given in this list.

BAILEY2 JOÃO ZILHÃO3 ABSTRACTThe Upper Paleolithic human remains from the Solutrean and Solutrean to Magdalenian levels of the Gruta do Caldeirão, Tomar (Portugal) are described paleontolog- ically. The remains, which include maxillary and mandibular pieces, associated and isolated teeth, and small postcranial elements, derive from a series of individuals between childhood and early adulthood. The teeth are relatively large, similar to those of earlier Upper Paleolithic Europeans, and the postcranial elements derive from a relatively small and gracile individual. All are notable for their lack of pathological alterations. RESUMODescrevem-se paleontologicamente os restos humanos do Paleolítico Superior (Solutrense e Magdalenense) da Gruta do Caldeirão, Tomar (Portugal). Incluindo peças dos maxilares superior e inferior, dentes a elas associados e dentes isolados, e ainda alguns ele- mentos pós-cranianos de pequenas dimensões, os restos pertencem a uma série de indiví- duos de idades compreendidas entre a infância e os primeiros anos da idade adulta. Os den- tes são relativamente grandes, comparáveis aos das restantes populações europeias do Paleolítico Superior inicial, e os elementos pós-cranianos pertencem a um indivíduo relati- vamente pequeno e grácil. É de realçar a ausência, em todos estes restos, de quaisquer alte- rações patológicas. REVISTA PORTUGUESA DE Arqueologia .volume 4.número 2.2001 6 Introduction Upper Paleolithic human remains are relatively rare from Iberia south of the Pyrenees (Fer- embach and Roche, 1971; Aguirre et al., 1991; Zilhão, 1997), and it is therefore of interest to describe in detail those remains that are known and have reasonably reliable stratigraphic con- texts.

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.
