In this 26th newsletter we celebrate the inscription of the Faya Palaeolandscapeonto UNESCO’s World Heritage List. Research into this fascinating culturallandscape has been supported by ROCEEH over many years. We also take a peekat the results of an invigorating collaboration with design students who werechallenged to envision new ways to interact with Neanderthal culture througha study program called Open Space. Next, we introduce our readers to a new RPackage aptly named “roadDB”, developed by the ROCEEH team, which allowsusers familiar with the statistics software “R” to easily extract data from ROAD.Finally, we summarize an international ROCEEH symposium held in Frankfurt thatdelved into a fascinating topic, “Diversifying networks. How culture infuses theenvironment”. We hope you enjoy!
