PRELIMINARY RESULTS OF THE ALIAKMON PALEOLITHIC/ PALEOANTHROPOLOGICAL SURVEY, GREECE, 2004-20052008 •
Greece lies on the hypothesized migration route of archaic humans into Europe, and its paleolithic record is critical in addressing issues of timing and routes of dispersal of the earliest European colonization. The Aliakmon Paleolithic survey, conducted on the Aliakmon river terraces in 2004-05, is the first systematic survey for this time period in the region. The area preserves Plio-Pleistocene fluvial fossiliferous sediments and has yielded paleolithic artifacts. We confirmed the existence of the terrace systems at previously proposed levels but with more complex dating than originally proposed. Faunal specimens collected include equids, rhinocerotids, suids, bovids, cervids, rodents, canids, proboscideans, and cf. Hippopotamus. Two possible Lower Paleolithic sites were located. Given the scarcity of such sites in Greece, these findings are pivotal in documenting early human presence in the area.

The Middle and Upper Paleolithic on the Western Coast of the Mani Peninsula (Southern Greece)2016 •
Along the western coast of the Mani peninsula (S. Greece) numerous caves with Upper Pleistocene and Early Holocene deposits, preserving cultural remains from the Middle Paleolithic to the end of the Neolithic, form an important group of archaeological sites located in a restricted geographic area. Excavations have been carried out in seven of these caves. The excavation of Kalamakia yielded data about the Middle Paleolithic, while the other six caves have yielded remains of all Upper Paleolithic phases. Of particular interest is the discovery of transitional Middle-Upper Paleolithic layers in Kolominitsa cave. Although preliminary, this evidence demonstrates the importance of systematic research on a regional scale through the comparative study of neighboring and contemporaneous sites. Finally, these sites enable us to date the arrival of anatomically modern humans in this area and to study subsequent ecological and cultural changes

Site Use and Maintenance in the Middle Palaeolithic at Lakonis I (Peloponnese, Greece2020 •
Lakonis I (ca. 100,000-40,000 BP) is a collapsed Middle Palaeolithic cave on the coast of the Mani Peninsula of southern Greece. The site contains three distinctive components: a hearth context, upper bone breccia, and lower bone breccia. The bone breccias contain concreted deposits and large numbers of lithic and faunal materials, though the upper bone breccia preserves more evidence of dumping from hearth features. The hearth context is comprised of hearth lenses interspersed with mixed ashy sediments, which we interpret as the remnants of raked out and trampled combustion features. Bones and lithics in the hearth context have higher rates of burning, and the lithics are smaller and more broken. The large numbers of burned bones are probably not the result of accidental burning or the use of bone as a fuel source, rather they seem to relate to site maintenance. The incorporation of multiple lines of evidence points to two different site maintenance strategies at Lakonis: (1) the intentional burning of food refuse and (2) the cleaning of hearths, and dumping remnant deposits elsewhere at the site. We therefore consider Lakonis I to be amongst the growing list of sites that contain evidence for Neandertal behavioral complexity.
