TL;DR: A detailed technological study is provided and evidence of the use of these tools on the butchery and consumption of fauna, probably by early Homo erectus sensu lato is provided, showing that complex cognition was present from the earliest stages of the Acheulean.

TL;DR: The morphology and size of its constituent parts suggest that the fossils derived from an extremely robust individual who, at 1.338±0.024 Ma (1 sigma), represents one of the most recent occurrences of Paranthropus before its extinction in East Africa.

TL;DR: Evidence supports that meat consumption was tightly linked to the physiology that shaped the evolution of the authors' genus Homo erectus, and unveils the need of new behavioral models to explain the functionality of Acheulian central-place sites.

TL;DR: In this paper, the taphonomic study of the elephant remains of Aridos 2 is presented, which provides more evidence of large carcass exploitation by hominins during this period.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors focus on the chronology of the final Middle-Upper Palaeolithic of Northern Iberia, where several assemblages have been found to post-date the first Upper-Palaeolithic in the region, and be of a similar age to the final Neanderthal occupations of the south.
