50 years after the survey led by Dr Patricia Vinnicombe, Dr Nthabiseng Mokoena, Dr Maïlys Richard and I started a new survey of the Senqunyane valley in highland Lesotho 🇱🇸⛰️. Lots of Stone Age shelters and San rock art! #archaeology @archeosciences-bordeaux.fr @cnrsshs.bsky.social

New paper alert: This was a great collaboration that I enjoyed very much and is an important paper for anyone interested in luminescence dating methods, early MSA, plant biomarkers or geoarchaeology! A truly interdisciplinary effort. #openaccess
