AI Summary

A new study led by Dr. Ariel Malinsky‑Bull​er of the Hebrew University of Jerusalem reexamines how prehistoric hunter‑gatherers survived in the Southern Caucasus between 57,000 and 27,000 years ago. Using archaeological, geological and paleoenvironmental data, the researchers reconstructed the region’s diverse landscape across present‑day Armenia, Georgia and nearby areas. They argue that extensive social networks, long‑distance mobility and knowledge exchange, rather than sole environmental adaptation, were crucial for human resilience during climatic and ecological shifts. The findings appear in Quaternary Science Reviews.
