Note(s) : Textes et résumés en anglais. - "The 2015 conference at Cambridge University's McDonald Institute for Archaeological
Research bringing together recent and current work on the Italian Palaeolithic has
resulted in the exciting set of papers in this volume"--Foreword. - Includes bibliographical references
The picture of the Palaeolithic adaptations in the Italian Peninsula has always been
coarse-grained compared to various well-researched regional hotspots in central and
western Europe, as a result of historical research bias preventing the application
of new research methodologies. Nonetheless, discoveries regarding Neanderthal extinction
and behavioural complexity, the dispersal of Anatomically Modern Humans as well as
the origin and diffusion of modern technologies and symbolic behaviour in Europe have
brought Italy into focus as an ideal region for understanding the evolutionary development
of various hominin species that inhabited the continent in the Late Pleistocene. In
particular the dynamics of the earliest human peopling of Europe, the reasons and
timing of Neanderthals demise and how environmental factors affected human prehistoric
behaviour, rates of technological innovation and connectivity of hunter-gatherer groups
in Europe. This edited volume aims to contribute to our better understanding of the
previous, still open, research questions
