Abstract

Made available in DSpace on 2018-12-11T16:52:26Z (GMT). No. of bitstreams: 0 Previous issue date: 2018-05-01 We have explored the multimethod approach combining 40Ar/39Ar on single crystal, ESR on bleached quartz, and ESR/U-series on teeth to improve the age of four neighbours “Acheulian” sites of the Frosinone Province (Latium, Italy): Fontana Ranuccio, Cava Pompi (Pofi), Isoletta, and Lademagne. Ages obtained by the three methods are in mutual agreement and confirm the potential of dating with confidence Middle Pleistocene sites of Italy using these methods. At Fontana Ranuccio, the 40Ar/39Ar age (408 ± 10 ka, full external error at 2σ) obtained for the archaeological level (unit FR4) and geochemical analyses of glass shards performed on the Unit FR2a layer allow us to attribute the studied volcanic material to the Pozzolane Nere volcanic series, a well-known caldera-forming event originated from the Colli Albani volcanic district. These new data ascribe the Fontana Ranuccio site, as well as the eponym faunal unit, to the climatic optimum of Marine Isotope Stage (MIS) 11. Ages obtained for the Cava Pompi, Isoletta, and Lademagne sites cover a relatively short period of time between 408 ka and 375 ka, spanning MIS 11 climatic optimum to the MIS 11–10 transition. Analysis of small collections of lithic industries, bifacial tools, and small cores technologies from Isoletta, Lademagne, and the neighbour site of Ceprano-Campogrande shows common technical strategies for the period comprised between MIS 11 and MIS 9 (410–325 ka), such as the elaboration of flaked elephant bone industries found over the whole Latium region. However, some features found only in the Frosinone province area, like large-sized bifaces, suggest particular regional behaviours. The presence of one Levallois core in the oldest layer of Lademagne (i.e. > 405 ± 9 ka) suggests a punctual practice of this technology, also proposed as early as MIS 10/11 in the neighbour site of Guado San Nicola (Molise) in central Italy.

Abstract

A multi-proxy record (lithology, XRF, CaCO 3 content, carbonate δ 18 O and δ 13 C) was acquired from a sediment core drilled in the intermountain Sulmona basin (central Italy). Tephrostratigraphic analyses of three volcanic ash layers ascribe the investigated succession to the MIS 12-MIS 11 period, spanning the interval ca. 500–410 ka. Litho-pedo facies assemblage indicates predominant lacustrine deposition, interrupted by a minor sub-aerial and lake low stand episode. Variations in major and minor elements concentrations are related to changes in the clastic input to the lake. The oxygen isotopic composition of carbonate (δ 18 O c ) intervals is interpreted mainly as a proxy for the amount of precipitation in the high-altitude catchment of the karst recharge system. The record shows pronounced hydrological variability at orbital and millennial time-scales, which appears closely related to the Northern Hemisphere summer insolation pattern and replicates North Atlantic and west Mediterranean Sea Surface Temperature (SST) fluctuations. The MIS 12 glacial inception is marked by an abrupt reduction of precipitation, lowering of the lake level and enhanced catchment erosion. A well-defined and isotopically prominent interstadial with increased precipitation maybe related to insolation maxima-precession minima at ca. 465 ka. This interstadial ends abruptly at ca. 457 ka and it is followed by a phase of strong short-term instability. Drastic lake-level lowering and enhanced clastic flux characterized the MIS 12 glacial maximum. Lacustrine deposition restarted about 440 ka ago. The MIS 12–MIS 11 transition is characterized by a rapid increase in the precipitation, lake-level rise and reduction in the clastic input, interrupted by a short and abrupt return to drier conditions. Comparison with marine records from the Iberian margin and western Mediterranean suggests that major events of ice rafted debris deposition, related to southward migrations of the polar front, match the harshest periods in central Italy. This indicates strong teleconnections between Northern hemisphere ice sheet dynamics, North Atlantic oceanic conditions and Mediterranean continental hydrology.

Abstract

The site of Ficoncella, in northern Latium (Italy), represents a great opportunity to investigate the modalities of a short occupation in a fluvial context during Lower Palaeolithic. From the results of radiometric dating, geological study and bio-chronological analyses, it emerged that the human occupation at the site, an ancient riverbank, occurred 0.5 Ma (MIS 13). This period can be considered as a key moment in the Lower Palaeolithic, with the first Acheulean, or mode 2 sites in Europe. The lithic assemblage of Ficoncella, without handaxes, is characterized by an overall small tool size, representing a very original reduction sequence and tool management. In order to investigate the human behaviour characterizing the site, we analyse the lithic industries, using a classical technological analysis, combined with a techno-functional approach and a use-wear analysis. The study of the lithic assemblage of Ficoncella may contribute to renew our image of the lithic industries without handaxes, too often ignored.

Abstract

In this chapter, we present results of a detailed investigation of the Campanian Ignimbrite (CI) eruption that took place c 40,000 BP. We endeavour to show that the potential impacts of this underrated eruption, in cambination with other environmental factors, demand e reconsideration of the processes and rythms that took place in western Eurasia at a crucial point in time represented by the so-called Middle to Upper Palaeolithic 'transition'. The source of the CI eruption was in the Phlegraean Fields Caldera, north-west of Naples in southern Italy (Figure 2.1). Petrologically identified CI ash layers have been reported from inland and marine sequences throughout south-eastern Europe from the Tyrrhenian Sea to the Volga River in Russia. The extensive CI deposits can be recognised as the product of the largest volcanic eruption during the past 200,000 years in the Greater Mediterranean area, defined here as including the Balkans, Anatolia, and the Pontic (Black Sea) regions. The eruption was large in both intensity and magnitude. The CI sulphate signal has been recognised in the GISP2 ice core, Greenland (Fedele et al 2003). This eruption can be dated to c 40,000 BP by means of argon-argon measurements supported by correlations with the Greenland ice record. This temporal placement draws attention to the climatic context of a time period centred on 40,000 BP, midway through the Weichselian (Last Glacial) Interpleniglacial, which corresponds to stage of Late Pleistocene environmental straitgraphy (MIS 3 ; Figures 2.2 and 3). The volcanic catastrophe precisely overlapped with the culmination of the penultimate Bond cycle of Stage 3, a cooling trend that began ~45,000 BP. We therefore propose that a positivefeedback triggered by an exceptional concurrence of factors - climatic change, glaciation, ocean-ice exchange, and latitude - is likely to have had hemispheric or wider effects. The most pronounced of these was the abrupt cooling coeval with the Heinrich Event 4 (HE4) about 40,000 BP. The scenario of a 'volcanic winter' should therefore be considered. The archaeological changes immediately following the CI are a sign of conspicuous interference with human populations. The coincidenceof a volcanic eruption and Palaeolithic phases had been noted previously (eg, Mussi 2001), but has not been effectively addressed in spite of abundant archaeological evidence in southern Italy and elsewhere. Furthermore, we surmise that the hiatus in human occupation must have has a causal relationship not only with the impact from the blast but with the ecological disruption it generated. It could be argued that only when humans are examined as ecosystem components can the effects of the CI on social and cultural processes - including the Middle to Upper Palaeolithic 'transition' - be understood.
