The picture of the Palaeolithic adaptations in the Italian
Peninsula has always been coarse-grained compared to various
well-researched regional hotspots in central and western Europe, as
a result of historical research bias preventing the application of
new research methodologies. Nonetheless, discoveries regarding
Neanderthal extinction and behavioural complexity, the dispersal of
Anatomically Modern Humans as well as the origin and diffusion of
modern technologies and symbolic behaviour in Europe have brought
Italy into focus as an ideal region for understanding the
evolutionary development of various hominin species that inhabited
the continent in the Late Pleistocene. In particular the dynamics
of the earliest human peopling of Europe, the reasons and timing of
Neanderthals demise and how environmental factors affected human
prehistoric behaviour, rates of technological innovation and
connectivity of hunter-gatherer groups in Europe. The edited volume
"Palaeolithic Italy" aims to contribute to our better understanding
of the previous, still open, research questions. This will be
achieved by presenting the latest advances in Palaeolithic research
in Italy due to the application of a variety of modern analytical
methods and cutting-edge techniques when studying numerous
collections of materials from both old and new excavations as well
as the latest results of field research in the country. The volume
is intended for the international academia, representing a key
reference for all archaeologists and readers interested in Early
Prehistory of the Mediterranean region.
