Research Interests

I am interested in studying lithic technology and palaeolithic archaeology to understand cognitive, behavioural, and organizational aspects of hunter-gatherer groups. During my early career I have focused on diachronic variations in the technological organisation of past societies, which has allowed me to work in international projects in Mongolia, Tanzania, and in NE of Iberia. Since 2015, I have been working in Middle Paleolithic and Upper Paleolithic sites in a long-term project that aims to identify human presence in the southern façade of the Pyrenees, filling a gap in the current archaeological record. I am also interested in cultural taxonomies, fieldwork methodology and the impact of archaeology in local communities.
