This project aims to analyze stone-tipped hunting weapons used by Neanderthals to understand their hunting strategies and cognitive abilities. It employs advanced analytical methods to investigate the technology behind these tools and their significance in Palaeolithic archaeology.
Stone-tipped hunting weapons are an important marker of the technical and cognitive capacities of Palaeolithic hominins and represent a crucial tipping point in human behavioural evolution.
Neanderthals were skilled hunters, as indicated by zooarchaeological and isotope analyses, but preserved remains of organic spears are sparse and potential lithic weapon tips are not ubiquitously present during the Middle Palaeolithic (MP, ca.300,000-40,000BP).
