RESET: Response of Humans to abrupt Environmental Transitions

Staff

Lead researcher

Professor William Davies

Professor of Palaeoanthropology

Research interests

  • Modelling mobility/dispersal, interaction and creativity/innovation in late Neanderthals and in early Homo sapiens.
  • Relating Palaeolithic hunter-gatherer ecologies to climatic frameworks.
  • Assessing inequalities in resource acquisition and development of skills in the Palaeolithic.

Research outputs
