Popis:	The Lower to Middle Palaeolithic transition in Western Europe is a long and complex process that is difficult to assess from an epistemological, chronological and behavioural point of view (Monnier 2006). Around 300 kyrs BP some elements of material culture, such as the Levallois technique (Mode 3) appear in several assemblages, but undisputed Mode 2 or Acheulean assemblages are still present until almost OIS (Oxygen Isotope Stage) 5e (≈115 kyrs BP) in different regions (Santonja & Villa 2006). These final Acheulean assemblages share Middle and Lower Palaeolithic traits and are crucial to understanding the patchwork nature of the transformation processes of Neanderthal societies during this period.
