    Description: The Acheulean site of Gesher Benot Ya'aqov in the Dead Sea Rift of Israel documents hominin movements and technological development on a corridor between Africa and Eurasia. New age data place the site at 780,000 years ago (oxygen isotope stage 19), considerably older than previous estimates. The archaeological data from the site portray strong affinities with African stone tool traditions. The findings also reflect adroit technical skills and in-depth planning abilities, more advanced and complex than those of earlier archaeological occurrences in the Levant.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Goren-Inbar, N -- Feibel, C S -- Verosub, K L -- Melamed, Y -- Kislev, M E -- Tchernov, E -- Saragusti, I -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2000 Aug 11;289(5481):944-7.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Institute of Archaeology, Hebrew University, Mt.

    Description: The presence of burned seeds, wood, and flint at the Acheulian site of Gesher Benot Ya'aqov in Israel is suggestive of the control of fire by humans nearly 790,000 years ago. The distribution of the site's small burned flint fragments suggests that burning occurred in specific spots, possibly indicating hearth locations. Wood of six taxa was burned at the site, at least three of which are edible--live, wild barley, and wild grape.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Goren-Inbar, Naama -- Alperson, Nira -- Kislev, Mordechai E -- Simchoni, Orit -- Melamed, Yoel -- Ben-Nun, Adi -- Werker, Ella -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2004 Apr 30;304(5671):725-7.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Institute of Archaeology, Hebrew University, Mt.

    Description: The spatial designation of discrete areas for different activities reflects formalized conceptualization of a living space. The results of spatial analyses of a Middle Pleistocene Acheulian archaeological horizon (about 750,000 years ago) at Gesher Benot Ya'aqov, Israel, indicate that hominins differentiated their activities (stone knapping, tool use, floral and faunal processing and consumption) across space. These were organized in two main areas, including multiple activities around a hearth. The diversity of human activities and the distinctive patterning with which they are organized implies advanced organizational skills of the Gesher Benot Ya'aqov hominins.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Alperson-Afil, Nira -- Sharon, Gonen -- Kislev, Mordechai -- Melamed, Yoel -- Zohar, Irit -- Ashkenazi, Shosh -- Rabinovich, Rivka -- Biton, Rebecca -- Werker, Ella -- Hartman, Gideon -- Feibel, Craig -- Goren-Inbar, Naama -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2009 Dec 18;326(5960):1677-80. doi: 10.1126/science.1180695.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Institute of Archaeology, Hebrew University of Jerusalem, Mount Scopus, Jerusalem 91905, Israel. alperson@mscc.huji.ac.il〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/20019284" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉
