Giulia Ricci has raised various questions during her research : What happens during the last phases of the Upper Paleolithic and what are the technical processes that lead to the formation of the first Holocene industries in southern Italy? How can we define the dynamics of the population of these areas? Is the first Mesolithic characterised by the arrival of new human groups or new technical models, or is that the result of local technical evolution? The Grotta della Serratura (Salerno) and the Grotta del Cavallo (Lecce), located on the two opposite sides of the Italian peninsula, represent perfect case studies to answer these questions. Both include artistic, funerary and economic data.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Giulia Ricci<\/strong> is a post-doctoral researcher. In 2018 she completed a PhD in co-tutelage between the Universit\u00e0 degli Studi di Firenze<\/a> and the Universit\u00e9 Paris Nanterre<\/a>. Her research focuses on the transition phases since the Upper Paleolithic, especially on the relationship between technical changes and environmental changes. Her new project deals with microlithism in southern Africa. Giulia is a member of the Bushman Rock Shelter<\/a> project, an excavation programme located in the Limpopo Province which has been associated to IFAS-Recherche <\/a>since 2014.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
