Westell et al @Flinders @FLINArchaeology apply microstratigraphy to demonstrate a 40 ka-old hearth in South Australia; a significant contribution of Aboriginal Australian culture to studying modern human culture in the deep past!

Amazing finds. Expected, but only now realised, thanks to dreaming big, being unprecedented, & right timing & support. Harold Berghuis PhD! Bravo!

@SuSaMiGroup – at Cambodia
Starting 2025, I'll be working alongside @dr_marpol @Flinders and international colleagues on Cambodian research. Using #microarchaeology, I'll be helping unravel narratives of resilience anchored on deeper understanding of economy, industry and environmental change. Stay tuned!

Working in the field of Human Evolution and using Microarchaeology to make sense of it all? Please consider submitting a paper abstract to our session on this exciting theme at WAC-10. DM me for more info. worldarchaeologicalcongress.…
@SuSaMiGroup congratulates @MikeGeoarch for receiving a @Flinders Vice Chancellor's Award for Research Excellence in understanding the evolution of our species and other Pleistocene human populations using #microarchaeology. More power to you, Mike & @FLINArchaeology – at Adelaide, South Australia
Excited to announce I received a @Flinders University Vice Chancellor's Award for Research Excellence, for my work employing #microarchaeology to better understand the evolution of our species and other Pleistocene human populations @FLINArchaeology

Check out the latest paper to come out of the @Flinders Microarchaeology Laboratory led by @MikeGeoarch @FLINArchaeology. Follow them for more #fearless research. Shout out to @Indi750 and the rest of the team working at the site! More exciting stuff to come!
Check out our new paper in Quaternary Science Reviews on the #micromorphology of sediments from Tam Pa Ling cave, led by my fantastic PhD student @ingatkatandaan

READ 👇 the latest research on Tam Pà Ling from @Flinders @FLINArchaeology published in Quaternary Science Reviews. The results highlight the key contribution of microstratigraphy to studying early Homo sapiens evolution and dispersals in the Far East.

Opinion piece: Researchers can now retrieve DNA directly from sediments and soils (#sedaDNA). However, to properly interpret this DNA, they need to understand its context and association within the archaeological record. ow.ly/V8PP50SnGna #archaeology
ALT To ensure that soil and sediment DNA is a trustworthy paleogenetic tool, it’s important that we understand the microscopic sources and potential movement of sedaDNA. We propose future pathways that, in our view, will be crucial in developing reliable collection and interpretations of sedaDNA data. Pictured is the archaeological site at Satsurblia Cave in the nation of Georgia, which yielded sedaDNA of ancient humans, wolves, and bison. See Ref 4. Image credit: Mareike C. Stahlschmidt.
