Last glacial ecology and geoarchaeology of the Central Trans-Ural area: The Sosva River Upper Palaeolithic Complex, western Siberia
Quaternary and geoarchaeology studies from the eastern limits of the Ural Mountains provide multiple lines of evidence of the Palaeolithic peopling of this geographically marginal and still poorly explored territory of western Siberia following the mid-last glacial (MIS 3) warming.
