#ESHE2025 featured posters from our team members on Greek sites: Klissoura (Marciani et al.), Megalopoli (Roditi et al.), and Apidima (Lombardo et al.)! 🌍🦴🐵 They couldn’t attend in person, but their work was well represented. 👏

Katerina Harvati ‘Middle Pleistocene funerary ritual at Apidima? An examination of evidence’
2 homs– 2 dates: Ap2: >170 ka (NEA), Ap1 >210 ka (early H sapiens).
Could it be mortuary ritual instead (Otte 2020)?! NO.
Analysis of tapho, homs in fissure! no pebbles, no pigments 😀

A great opportunity to meet so many inspiring colleagues—thanks to the organizers of the 'Variability within the Aurignacian' session for making it possible! @armandofalcucci.bsky.social @julienrs.bsky.social
Great to see our PhD student Serena Lombardo presenting at the SAA meeting in Denver! Her talk, “Early Upper Paleolithic Technical Behavior at Apidima (Peloponnese, Greece): Technological Analysis of the Lithic Assemblage from Cave C,” highlighted our exciting ongoing research at Apidima! Congrats!🤩
