I'm pleased to share with you my recent article on Acheulean biface diversity. The article appears in the 'Journal of Archaeological Science: Reports'.

🌍 Why should we study the last 2.6 million years?
In the first episode of Voices of Quaternary Science, former INQUA President Prof. Thijs van Kolfschoten explains why understanding Earth's recent past is essential for navigating our future.
Recorded during his visit to India for the INQUA–IUBS Meeting and discussions with the INQUA 2027 India Organising Team, Prof. Thijs reflects on why the study of the Quaternary Period is more relevant than ever.
As climate change becomes increasingly visible in our daily lives, the Quaternary record provides valuable lessons about how environments respond to change. Since we cannot look directly into the future, we must learn from the past.
“Climate is not stable; climate is flexible. We have to learn from the past.”

Really excited to share that I’ve received the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Postdoctoral Fellowship. Feels a bit unreal to be part of such a prestigious fellowship and to work with amazing institutes like @iphes and @CENIEH in Spain ✨

🧬 New study reveals how the last Neanderthals lived in NW Spain ~41,000 years ago!
At Cova Eirós (Galicia), they thrived in a cold but rainy climate.

Gearing up for INQUA 2027 (1-7 February 2027) Theme: Quaternary Science as Societal Services 😊 Stay Tuned and do follow @inqua2027india for updates of this exciting journey 🙏
The next presentation in our final session is by Vivek Singh @vivekghlwt, whose research is focussed on understanding the technological variability and
prevalence of cleavers in the Acheulean. More beautiful bifaces!
Indian prehistorians are doing a great job with discoveries, analysis and new interpretations, publishing both locally & internationally. We look forward to more Indian-led teams, and more citations of our work
