Being Human: The Beginnings of Our Culture. Accompanying volume to the special exhibition 5 May 2021 – 27 March 2022, Archäologisches Museum Frankfurt
Is it possible to define what it means to be human based on biological, social, ecological, or cultural factors? Is it something physical, something in the way we think, or in the way we behave? When we look at the long history of humankind, it becomes clear that we had to experience many different developmental stages throughout the millions of years of developmental history to become the multifaceted species that populates this Earth today.English Edition of: "Menschsein. Die Anfänge unserer Kultur"

This Tandem-Festschrift pays tribute to Elaine Turner and Martin Street, to celebrate all you have both contributed to the MONREPOS Archaeological Research Centre and Museum for Human Behavioural Evolution of the Römisch-Germanisches Zentralmuseum, in ensuring high research standards, and for your contributions to Palaeolithic Archaeology in Germany and beyond.

Human Origins – Digital Future: An International Conference about the Future of Archaeological and Paleoanthropological Databases
This eBook presents the proceedings of an online conference entitled, “Human Origins – Digital Future” which took place from 27-31 July 2020. The main aim of the conference was to discuss integrative aspects and approaches for developing, using and securing large scientific databases in the future, specifically in the context of archaeological and paleoanthropological research. The conference focused on how databases with novel information technology can be used to gain new knowledge by linking, retrieving and analyzing archaeological, paleoanthropological, paleobiological and geographical information. In addition to addressing fundamental questions of digitalization and open science, the conference examined approaches using innovative methods. Given the digital nature of the conference, we designed the format of this publication to employ multimedia and interactive features. Therefore, this volume brings together the abstracts of the talks, each containing a link that allows the reader to view the video as presented at the conference. In addition, the volume closes with a round-table discussion that can be accessed through links to interviews about selected topics related to the future of databases.
