Zoogeographic significance of Dmanisi large mammal assemblage

Saverio Bartolini-Lucenti et al.

Summary: This study compares the zoogeographic distribution of mammal assemblages to reveal similarities between the Dmanisi Early Pleistocene large mammal community and similar-aged sites in Africa, Arabia, and Eurasia. The analysis suggests a progressive dispersal of large mammal communities from east to west during the late Early Pleistocene, with Dmanisi showing the closest resemblance to certain locations in Greece, Italy, and Spain. The habitats at Dmanisi consisted of drier areas, likely open wooded savannah and grassland, as well as mountainous to semiarid rocky terrain.

No sustained increase in zooarchaeological evidence for carnivory after the appearance of Homo erectus

W. Andrew Barr et al.

Summary: The appearance of Homo erectus is often considered a turning point in human dietary evolution, but the evidence for increased carnivory in this species has not been thoroughly examined. This study analyzes the zooarchaeological record from eastern Africa and finds that the evidence for hominin carnivory is strongly related to sampling effort, with no sustained increase over time. These findings challenge the evolutionary narratives linking anatomical and behavioral traits to increased meat consumption in H. erectus.

Deja vu: a reappraisal of the taphonomy of quarry VM4 of the Early Pleistocene site of Venta Micena (Baza Basin, SE Spain)

Paul Palmqvist et al.

Summary: This article compares the skeletal composition and features of two excavation areas, VM3 and VM4, in Venta Micena. The results show slight differences in the composition of the assemblages, suggesting the involvement of different agents in the bone accumulation process. The study also finds that the hyaenas consumed the bones more extensively in VM3, possibly due to a delayed rise in the water table of the Baza palaeolake.

On the ecological scenario of the first hominin dispersal out of Africa

Paul Palmqvist et al.

Summary: The article reviews the debate surrounding the dispersal of early humans from Africa to the Caucasus region and proposes a new scenario of a forest refugium. The authors provide explanations and answers to the dispersal process and the environment by discussing the ecological characteristics of saber-toothed tigers and giant hyenas, paleobotanical analyses, and geological events.

The Vallonnet cave on the northern Mediterranean border: A record of one of the oldest human presences in Europe

Dominique Cauche

Summary: The Vallonnet cave in the Alpes-Maritimes in France is one of the oldest sites in the country, dating back to around 1.1-1.2 million years ago. Evidence of human activity, including lithic tools and butchered animal bones, suggests that early humans inhabited the cave and competed with large carnivores for resources.

Mean body size estimation in large mammals and the computation of biomass in past ecosystems: An application to the Pleistocene sites of Orce and Sierra de Atapuerca (Spain)

Guillermo Rodriguez-Gomez et al.

Summary: This paper examines the estimation methods of population mean body mass in ancient mammals and uses the paleoecosystems of Orce and Atapuerca sites as case studies. The results suggest that survival profiles derived from the Weibull model provide more accurate estimates of mean body mass and that the carrying capacity of Orce is higher than that of Atapuerca.

The evolution of the human trophic level during the Pleistocene

Miki Ben-Dor et al.

Summary: Through reviewing various existing studies, research reconstructed the human trophic level (HTL) during the Pleistocene. Evidence indicates that the Homo lineage evolved from a low trophic level in the Pleistocene to a high, carnivorous position, with a reversal occurring in the Upper Paleolithic.

Use of meat resources in the Early Pleistocene assemblages from Fuente Nueva 3 (Orce, Granada, Spain)

Summary: Recent research has shown that early humans in Europe had access to a variety of animal meat and bone marrow, and likely faced competition from large predators. However, little is known about their specific food acquisition methods and butchery processes.

Dietary ecology of the scimitar-toothed cat Homotherium serum

Larisa R. G. DeSantis et al.

Summary: Homotherium was a cosmopolitan cat in the Pleistocene, with a diet consisting of soft and tough foods including juvenile mammoths. Its dietary ecology was distinct from other extinct and extant cats, with adaptations for acquiring open-country prey and avoiding bone consumption. The findings suggest a unique feeding strategy for Homotherium when compared to other carnivores.

Coping with arid environments: A critical threshold for human expansion in Europe at the Marine Isotope Stage 12/11 transition? The case of the Iberian Peninsula

Hugues-Alexandre Blain et al.

Summary: The findings suggest that climate has constraints on human settlement, particularly related to rainfall and environmental humidity. Hominin occupation in the Early and Middle Pleistocene was dominated by relatively humid wooded areas, but expanded towards more open arid areas later on. Based on estimated occupational niche, a maximum potential distribution for early hominins in Europe is proposed.

Juha Saarinen et al.

Summary: By analyzing dental ecometrics of early and middle Pleistocene human sites as well as large herbivorous mammals, it was found that early Pleistocene humans tended to occupy diverse habitats like woodlands and savannas, while middle Pleistocene humans adapted to a wider range of environments but showed a preference for wooded paleoenvironments.

The early hunting dog from Dmanisi with comments on the social behaviour in Canidae and hominins

Saverio Bartolini-Lucenti et al.

Summary: The paper reports on the discovery of early carnivorous canid fossils at the Dmanisi site, showing highly cooperative pack-hunting features and social care towards group members. This evolved hypercarnivorous canid from East Asia has one of its earliest records in the Caucasus at Dmanisi, dispersing towards Europe and Africa in a parallel route to hominins. The altruistic behavior towards group members by early Pleistocene hominins and hunting dogs is a topic discussed in evolutionary biology for over a century.

First high resolution chronostratigraphy for the early North African Acheulean at Casablanca (Morocco)

Summary: The emergence of the Acheulean tools marked a significant technological advancement in human evolution, dating back to at least approximately 1.3 million years ago in North Africa. Despite the lack of well-dated sites in reliable contexts, recent research has provided a more robust chronostratigraphic framework for the early North African Acheulean culture.

Summary: Venta Micena is a significant area for the study of paleoecology and paleoenvironment in southern Europe during the Early Pleistocene. Recent excavations at Venta Micena 4 have revealed new insights and complexities regarding the taphonomic analyses and the interpretion of fossil remains in the area. This contributes to the discussion and challenges traditional interpretations made from Venta Micena 3.
