TL;DR: The dating of annular constructions made of broken stalagmites found deep in Bruniquel Cave in southwest France gives a reliable and replicated age of 176.5 thousand years (±2.1 thousand years), making these edifices among the oldest known well-dated constructionsmade by humans.
Journal ArticleDOI
Study of the spectro-chemical signatures of cobalt–manganese layered oxides (asbolane–lithiophorite and their intermediates) by Raman spectroscopy
Christian Burlet,Yves Vanbrabant +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, Raman micro-spectroscopy is applied to investigate two manganese oxide phases: lithiophorite and asbolane, along with their intermediates.
Journal ArticleDOI
First Early Hominin from Central Africa (Ishango, Democratic Republic of Congo)
Isabelle Crevecoeur,Matthew M. Skinner,Shara E. Bailey,Philipp Gunz,Silvia Bortoluzzi,Alison S. Brooks,Christian Burlet,E. Cornelissen,Nora De Clerck,Bruno Maureille,Patrick Semal,Yves Vanbrabant,Bernard Wood +12 more
TL;DR: It is shown that the size and shape of the enamel-dentine junction (EDJ) surface discriminate between Plio-Pleistocene and post-Lower Pleistocene hominins, and that the Ishango molar clusters with australopiths and early Homo from East and southern Africa.
Journal ArticleDOI
A new Cambrian black pigment used during the late Middle Palaeolithic discovered at Scladina Cave (Andenne, Belgium)
Dominique Bonjean,Yves Vanbrabant,Grégory Abrams,Stéphane Pirson,Christian Burlet,Kévin Di Modica,Marcel Otte,Jacqueline Vander Auwera,Mark Golitko,Rhy McMillan,Eric Goemaere +10 more
TL;DR: In this article, one fragment of a black, friable siltstone with a black streak was found in association with 194 burned bone fragments and several thousand lithic artefacts.
Journal ArticleDOI
Raman spectroscopy as a tool to characterize heterogenite (CoO·OH) (Katanga Province, Democratic Republic of Congo)
TL;DR: Natural heterogenite samples studied by Raman microspectroscopy, electronic microprobe and Electronic BackScattered Diffraction established a close relationship between the chemical substitutions of Co by mainly Cu, Ni, Mn and Al and their impact on the mineral Raman response.
