Article Synopsis
- The Initial Upper Paleolithic (IUP) marks a crucial phase in human evolution, characterized by advanced blade technology and symbolism, replacing Middle Paleolithic cultures.
- The earliest evidence of IUP technology appears in western Eurasia around 50,000 years ago, with significant findings in the Balkans and Central Europe shortly after.
- Recent studies indicate that the IUP has distinct phases, with the latest known between 43,000 and 35,000 years ago, showing a west-east spread through mountainous regions of Central Asia and South Siberia.
