have achieved almost complete cross-section of layers in the cave distinguishing 19 major geological layers
and 9 archeological levels. The correlation with proles at the entrance to the cave, was showed at similar
stratigraphic situation. Precise studies have provided new material, that despitely of weak density, allows us
to make a preliminary cultural linkage. Initially, based on the hitherto geological analysis it was assumed that
the sequences of Pleistocene layers can be dated from between 6 and 3 isotopic period. The cultural units
can be described as follow: Holocene I cultural level with Neolithic, Early Bronze, Roman Period and
Middle Ages settlements; the disturbed layer – II cultural level, a few mixed materials, including Holocene,
Upper Palaeolithic and Middle Palaeolithic; Interstadial (MIS 3) – III and IV, micoquian; the lower Plenivis-
tulian (MIS 4) V cultural level, micoquian; early Vistulian VI cultural level, taubachien like industry;
Eemian (MIS 5e) – VII cultural level, mousterian with levallois technique and VIII cultural level, mousteri-
an; Oder (MIS 6) IX cultural level, unidentied industry with traces of bifacial technique. For the upper
part of the prole with relatively rich micouqian elemnts (III cultural level) and for “main cultural level”
from Stanislaw Kowalskis studies it obtained the radiocarbon dates. These are oscillating around 41000 BP,
indicating a very late position of Prądnik industry.

Spatial characterization and prediction of Neandertal sites based on stochastic environmental
modelling
In this paper, we present a unique spatial dataset of Neandertal sites in Europe. Information on topograph-
ic locations and characteristics of the locations were collected based on own work and a comprehensive
literature review. Subsequently, the coordinates were post-processed to guarantee topographic accuracy and
converted to a vector point format. The nd locations were then utilized to study in detail the local charac-
teristics of nd locations. Therefore we performed a terrain analysis on SRTM 90m DEM. This analysis
highlights implications for climate and vegetation, geomorphologic and hydrologic process potentials as
well as strategic aspects of the closer surroundings of nd locations.
For the analysis we chose an area of ca 7.3 ha around each nd location. In total we delineated 46 topo-
graphic indices and used the site information to assess the specic combinations at the nd locations. To
reveal the importance of single indices and site specic index combinations we applied a boosted regression
tree approach (BRT). The study showed that Pre-Neandertals, Early Neandertals, and Classic Neandertals
show specic spatial distributions. Moreover, it seems that also the environmental preferences are different
especially between the Early and Classic Neandertals. Moreover, the methodology allows for a spatial pre-
diction of occurrence probabilities for Neanderthal sites.

Bladelet Production and Microliths from the Initial Magdalenian Site Mirande, Com. Negrepelisse
(Tarn-et-Garonne, Fance)
The open air site Mirande is situated at the base of the hills of the Causse facing the extended alluvial plain
of the Aveyron, on the bank of the small river Gouyré which ows into the Aveyron at a distance of 200 m.
It is in the classical topographical situation of an Upper Palaeolithic base camp. The large site was excavated
