Our symposium on Middle Pleistocene behavioral variability with special focus on Dalarik-1 Cave (Armenia) is just a day away! Join us at📍Room 520, Mt. Scopus Campus, The Hebrew University of Jerusalem, or 💻 online (via zoom)! See you all tomorrow! @HumEnDyLAB #TransCause!

The session is co-organised by @DianaMrczz, Thomas Beard and myself 😊

📢Deadline Extended📢 Final week of abstract submissions for EAA2026 and Session 178 - Cave Sediments as Archives of Human-Environment Dynamics: Cross-Disciplinary Perspectives on Geoarchaeology & Micro-contextual Research! We look forward to seeing you all in Athens!

📢Call for Contributions! 📢 If you work on the (micro-) geoarchaeology of cave sediments, using micromorphological, chemical, or biomolecular approaches, this session #178 is for you! There is still time to apply (deadline: 5th of February)!

@HumEnDyLAB & #TransCause Project invite you to our symposium on Middle Pleistocene behavioral variability with special focus on Dalarik-1 Cave (Armenia)! 📍Room 520, Mt. Scopus Campus, The Hebrew University of Jerusalem. 💻Also online (via zoom)! See you all there!

🎉New article by our doctoral researcher Dominik Rogall on the paleoenvironment of Kalavan‐2 (MP; 60-35ka) based on small‐vertebrate assemblages! 🎉Published in the Journal of Quaternary Science! Check this out: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.10…

New article from our doctoral researcher @DavidC_Nora is out!!! Check it out! 🎉🎉

@HumEnDyLAB @elleryfrahm @ArikBuller @ICArEHB

Let's go @DavidC_Nora !👏

The first week of excavations and stratigraphic documentation at Dalarik-1 Cave was very successful! The trip to Kalavan village - and the homonymous Palaeolithic sites - was the best treat for a day-off! A stop at Gutanasar volcano was a must! @HumEnDyLAB #TransCause

Back to Armenia, back to Dalarik-1 Cave, with a large international team from Armenia, Spain, Israel, Greece, France, Portugal, Italy & beyond! Let the excavation of this unique Middle Pleistocene site start! 🎉 #TransCause @HumEnDyLAB

📢New research paper, led by Theo Karampaglidis & colleagues integrates geomorphological mapping & sediment analysis & dating (Cosmogenic Nuclides & OSL) to reconstruct environmental history over the past 900,000 years in Ararat Depression! Open access: sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

📢 New publication: "The role of lithic technology in shaping mobility and decision-making: The case of Ararat-1 Cave" by Nora, D., Frahm, E., et al., in Quaternary Science Reviews (2025). 🔗 More info: doi.org/10.1016/j.quas…

New paper by @DavidC_Nora and colleagues, examining stone tool efficiency through experiments! Check it out!

Check it out! Congratulations @DavidC_Nora 🎉🎉🎉

📢More Papers Alert📢 @DavidC_Nora and colleagues just published a research article on lithic technology and mobility, at Ararat-1 Cave (Armenia)! It is published in the Quaternary Science Reviews (open access)! Check it out! Massive congratulations 🎉 🎉 🎉

Massive congratulations to my dear friend and colleague @DavidC_Nora 🎉🥳

You can find and download the article (open access) via this link: doi.org/10.1016/j.quas…

📢!New paper alert!📢 The study of the microvertebrate assemblages from Ararat-1 Cave (Armenia) has been published in the Quaternary Science Reviews! Massive congratulations to our PhD candidate Dominik Rogall and colleagues! 🎉 @HumEnDyLAB
