Alice Rodriguez

Ph.D. from @CSHO_NYU
Paleolithic archaeologist, intrested in stone tool use and function.

[Alice Rodriguez @AliceRodTor]

Earlier tools show more constrained grips and motions.
Later tools reveal more ergonomic flexibility and diversified actions.

[Alice Rodriguez @AliceRodTor]

The first article from my PhD results is now published — and it’s Open Access!
We show how handaxe grip and use evolved over time at La Noira (France).

We used GIS-based use-wear mapping and quantitative analyses to compare two Acheulean levels:
• Stratum A (~700 ka)
• Stratum C (~450 ka)

New preprint out!
In this study, we evaluate how accurately different molding compounds replicate lithic microtopography using confocal microscopy and ISO 25178 surface roughness parameters.

I am very excited to share that the final paper from my dissertation has been published in Archaeological and Anthropological Sciences! Get the link and more details here 👉https://t.co/qNM5pNV526

The second paper from my dissertation research was published today in JPA! In this paper, my co-author, Dr. Talgat Mamirov, and I document the spatial characteristics of lithic recycling behaviors at a surface site in Central Kazakhstan: https://t.co/2dgrvPQLUa

Very excited to share the first paper from my dissertation research that was published in #PLOSONE today!

Exploring the impact of mobility and selection on stone tool recycling behaviors through agent-based simulation

We show a positive statistical relationship between the hardness of the worked material and the modification of the surface texture for the Sa parameter.
Contrary to expectation, softer materials, such as Spruce wood, create a smoother surface than hard ones, such as ivory./5

[Alice Rodriguez @AliceRodTor]

New paper out with @iovitza:
"The effect of worked material hardness on stone tool wear".

We tested if there is a correlation between #usewear formation on flint and the hardness of the worked material.

Four of the ISO25178 parameters were selected to perform the statistical analysis: arithmetic mean height (Sa), autocorrelation length (Sal), arithmetic mean peak curvature (Spc), and the upper material ratio (Smr1)./4
