Deep-Time Images in the Age of Globalization
Zusammenfassung: This open access volume explores the impact of globalization on the contemporary study of deep-time art. The volume explores how early rock art research's Eurocentric biases have shifted with broadened global horizons to facilitate new conversations and discourses in new post-colonial realities. The book uses seven main themes to explore theoretical, methodological, ethical, and practical developments that are orienting the study of Pleistocene and Holocene arts in the age of globalization. Compiling studies as diverse as genetics, visualization, with the proliferation of increasingly sophisticated archaeological techniques, means that vast quantities of materials and techni...
Reconstructing Olduvai
Reconstructing Olduvai: The Behavior of Early Humans at David's Site provides the necessary information for future generations of archaeologists to peer into the lifestyle of early humans. Much of what is known about these hominins originates from the detailed excavations that Mary Leakey carried out at Olduvai Gorge in Tanzania. Since then, work at Olduvai has produced a wealth of new fossils, resulting in the discovery of David's Site, the biggest early Pleistocene site in the world. Its exceptional preservation and size make it an invaluable paleoarcheological finding, and this book details the insights discovered therein about the dietary, technological, and social behaviors of hominins....
La cueva de Caldas (Priorio, Oviedo)
Este libro recoge los resultados de las investigaciones realizadas por un equipo internacional e interdisciplinar, en la Cueva de Las Caldas (Asturias). La cavidad fue habitada durante ca. 21,000 a 12,000 BP, y conserva uno de los registros estratigráficos más importantes del Solutrense y Magdaleniense de Europa, así como grabados parietales en el vestíbulo. Diferentes especialistas estudian las ocupaciones de la Sala II, que corresponden al Magdaleniense inferior, medio y superior y el Solutrense final. Destaca la colección de Arte mueble en hueso, asta y marfil, a la que se suman más de 400 plaquitas de arenisca grabadas con motivos figurativos y lineales, o con pintura roja. Algunos de los sujetos reproducidos en este arte son emblemáticos por su rareza: antropomorfos, bisontes, mamuts, renos, rinocerontes lanudos, rebecos, etc. A este volumen seguirá una segunda monografía, dedicada al estudio espacial del paisaje de Las Caldas, los suelos de ocupación y los restos humanos, así como al registro arqueológico solutrenses de la Sala II y el Arte parietaL

Human Adaptations to the Last Glacial Maximum
The book assembles new insights into humanity’s social, cultural and economic developments during the Last Glacial Maximum in Western Europe and adjacent regions. It gathers original, up-to-date research results on the Solutrean techno-complex, reflecting four major fields of research: data from current excavations; analysis of lithic assemblages; new results from studies on climatic conditions and human-environmental interactions; and insights into artistic expressions. New methodological and analytical approaches are applied, providing significant contributions to Paleolithic research beyond the Last Glacial Maximum.

Global Trade Analysis
This book, drawn from the Global Trade Analysis Project (GTAP), aims to help readers conduct quantitative analysis of international trade issues in an economy-wide framework. In addition to providing a succinct introduction to the GTAP modeling framework and data base, this book contains seven of the most refined GTAP applications undertaken to date, covering topics ranging from trade policy, to the global implications of environmental policies, factor accumulation and technological change.
