Just a reminder abstracts due this week for the 2025 EAA annual meetings! #archaeology Consider submitting to our session below if you focused on hunter gatherers in aquatic environments (coastal, lake, riverine or other wise).

First day on site at the #Klipdrift2025 excavations was a sunny success. Equipment was dropped off and tomorrow starts the first day officially camping. Hoping to start excavating by the end of the week, but we will see how things go! #archaeology

The first day at the site was filled with cleaning baboon poop, finding the old sand bags, and testing out the new metal walk way to the site. We’ll be working at both Klipdrift Cave (left) and Shelter (right). Tomorrow the prep continues! #Klipdrift2025 #archaeology

Week 2 for #Klipdrift2025 excavations and the baboons are officially causing chaos, crushing gazebos and heading to the site as soon as we leave. We will see what awaits us tomorrow… #archaeology #SouthAfrica #baboons

Although we were met with piles of fresh baboon poop this morning, we persevered! Both the shelter and cave are now open for business. Images are of the cave before (left) and after (right) sandbag removal. #Klipdrift2025 #archaeology

Exciting find to end the week at Klipdrift Cave with the first in-situ engraved ostrich eggshell of the season! Hopefully more to come. #archaeology #Klipdrift2025

Excavations in the MSA are rocking at Klipdrift shelter this week with postdoc Marzena Cendrowska and field technician Maciej Ehlert! #archaeology #Klipdrift2025

Two new team members this week with postdocs Samuel and Katrina! As we work our way through week four, we have begun to take samples to reconstruct the paleoenvironment of when Klipdrift shelter would have been occupied. #archaeology #Klipdrift2025 instagram.com/p/DG1IgBRgLbj/…
