Give this one a try later!
A spatially discrete area where archeological remains are found.
What is archaeology?
Give this one a try later!
The science and art of the human past as studied through material remains.
The Climate
,Give this one a try later!
300-100 kya
much of Africa was colder and dryer
Mezmaiskaya Cave
Give this one a try later!
The location that has produced the most recent Neanderthal fossil, dated
to 39 kya +/- 1.1k
Lewis Binford (1931-2011)

Argued for Processualism, archaeology should be a science.
Past societies were living and dynamic.
We only have a static archaeological record.
Proposed ethnoarchaeology.
Apidima Cave
Give this one a try later!
It shows earliest evidence of Homo Sapiens in Eurasia
It shows multiple dispersals of early modern humans out of Africa
,Hominin
Give this one a try later!
All members that split after chimpanzees,
7-10 mya
Homo ergaster
Give this one a try later!
1.8- 1.5 mya, inarguably human, disagreement whether its the earliest
erectus.
Excavation
Give this one a try later!
Systematic removal and recording of archeological deposits and remains in
context.
Homo neanderthalensis
Give this one a try later!
Biache-saint vaast, France
175 kya- thermoluminescence
Levallois technology
, represent a local evolution of humans
exclusively found in Europe, southwest asia, central asia
Ethnoarchaeology
Give this one a try later!
The study of how people use objects and space in the present to model
scenarios about how they might have used similar but different items in the
past.
Did Neanderthals have symbolic language

Removal of feathers as evidence from bird bone taphonomy
Hoyo Negro, Mexico
Give this one a try later!
12.9 - 11.7 kya
Shows evidence of differences between Paleoamericans and Native
Americans, Probably resulted from in situ evolution rather than separate
ancestry
shows people must have crossed into Beringia already
