Hunter-Gatherer Archaeology of Liguria: Recent Research and Insights
Part of: Society for American Archaeology 88th Annual Meeting, Portland, OR (2023)
This collection contains the abstracts of the papers presented in the session entitled "Hunter-Gatherer Archaeology of Liguria: Recent Research and Insights" at the 88th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology.
Since 2014, there has been a boom of research in hunter-gatherer archaeology in the region of Liguria. This has included the excavation of new sites, the re-excavation of important sites excavated by prior generations of scholars, and the reanalysis of materials collected as part of pioneering projects across the region. This session brings together scholars to discuss the results of newly concluded projects such as those at Riparo Bombrini, Arene Candide, and Via San Francesco and ongoing projects or reanalyses of materials from sites such as Arma Veirana, Arma dello Stefanin, and Arma di Nasino. The goal is to provide a setting to critically discuss these new data and chart new directions for an integrated approach to the archaeology of foragers in the region across several disruptive events, including the Middle–Upper Paleolithic transition and the Pleistocene–Holocene boundary.
