ARCHAEOLOGICAL AND ANTHROPOLOGICAL RECONSTRUCTION AS INTERDISCIPLINARY METHOD OF RESEARCH by M. O. Pavlenok

“…Three main levels of arhaeo-antropological reconstruction are characterized: 1) reconstruction aimed at restoring anthropological features of materials received with the help of archeological procedures (skeleton, mummy, cremated remains); 2) reconstruction of events (whose chronological, biological, social, ethnic, cultural context individuals and remains discovered through archaeological excavation existed in); 3) identification of ethno-genetic, evolutionary, and other processes (paleoanthropological material being its part). The author identifies four stages of arhaeo-antropological reconstruction: 1) Isolation and description of paleoanthropological material; 2) Analysis of paleoanthropological material, which serves as basis for decoding; 3) Creating a reconstruction (model); 4) Historical and anthropological interpretation of the object. …”

The affinities of Homo antecessor – a review of craniofacial features and their taxonomic validity by Trafí Francesc Ribot, Bartual Mario García, Wang Qian

“…In this study we conducted a comprehensive review of the TD6 hypodigm within the context of the historical development of paleoanthropological issues concerning this species. H. antecessor, based on all available craniofacial features to date, displays a midfacial morphology very similar to specimens attributed to Classic Homo erectus, suggesting that H. antecessor is the geographical European variant of Classic H. erectus.…”

Hominid Stamps:The Philatelic Medium as a Tool Contributing to Nationalism by Kamyar Abdi

“…While depiction of iconic archaeological finds or monuments of archaeological, historical, cultural or natural significance on postage stamps printed by many countries around the globe to promote nationalist sentiments as means of creating or promoting national cohesion, especially in ethnically diverse countries, is by no means unusual, the question posed in this paper, with specific focus on paleoanthropological finds, is that how far back in time this practice can be traced, and how images of hominid fossils from hundreds of thousands, sometime millionsof years ago, can be of contribution to promoting nationalism in various countries. …”

Building blocks of imagination by Chris Jones, Juri van den Heever

“…Several pointers exist that argue for human imagination as an evolved faculty that is shared within broad spectrum of taxa. Paleoanthropological research has provided insights as to the role of imagination in the early manifestations of religious behaviour in humans, the construction of effective stone tools by anatomically modern humans employing pyro technology, as well as their ability to mentally link ostensibly non-related natural phenomena like tidal fluctuations and the phases of the moon. …”
