Laboratory of Contextual Anthropology
The Contextual Anthropology Laboratory was established in late 2018. Its primary focus is the study of paleoanthropological material in the context of archaeological sites and paleoenvironments.
The relevance of this research is driven by the expanding interdisciplinary collaboration between archaeology and paleoanthropology in recent decades. A contextual approach involves developing methods for field collection and recording of skeletal remains, as well as the creation of information systems containing information on their location, preservation, biological characteristics, and elements of funerary rituals.
Direct participation in excavations also allows for the collection and recording of necessary samples and data, the analytical study of which evaluates taphonomic processes and paleoecological conditions. Combining modernized fieldwork methods with the creation of an information system characterizing paleoanthropological materials creates the basis for th
