Paleoanthropology Picture of the Day

I am going to try to post occasional (every week or so) pictures of paleoanthropological significance. Here is a photo looking at the Block 2 excavation area at the Lower Paleolithic site of Dmanisi, with the Dmanisi museum director, Gocha Kiladze, in the foreground. The walls are remnants of the medieval citadel complex that runs throughout the site. The roof structure was part of the project, initially opened in 2008, to create a site museum at the locality.

About Adam Van Arsdale

I am biological anthropologist with a specialization in paleoanthropology. My research focuses on the pattern of evolutionary change in humans over the past two million years, with an emphasis on the early evolution and dispersal of our genus, Homo. My work spans a number of areas including comparative anatomy, genetics and demography.
