I am very thankful to our amazing team bringing to light these fantastic results! Homo sapiens bones found at Ranis show that H. sapiens ventured into Central Europe already more than 45.000 years ago! Thanks for those exciting last 8 years working together on this project!

Our paper in nature reveals that the makers of the LRJ technocomplex in Ranis cave (eastern Germany) were modern humans and predates the dispersal of early Homo sapiens in northwestern Europe by appr. 2,000 years, long before the extinction of Neanderthals.

New findings from #Ilsenhöhle cave in #Ranis show: Modern humans reached NW Europe more than 45,000 years ago & were the makers of the Lincombian-Ranisian-Jerzmanowician (LRJ) technocomplex. New studies in nature & natureEcoEvo. nature.com/articles/s4158… & tinyurl.com/3ksm2586

Exciting new results from our work at the site of Ranis published today in 3 papers in nature and natureEcoEvo where we report on 13 new Homo sapiens fossils and discuss their subsistence, diet and palaeoenvironmental context. #OpenAccess

The next talk from our #PAASTA Talk Series will be given on Wednesday 7th Feb, 17:00 CET by Eleanor Green from BioArCh
