The data provided here are the supplemental information accompanying the journal article The Neanderthal Niche Space of Western Eurasia 145k to 30kya by Yaworsky, Nielsen, & Nielsen. All analyses were performed in R v4.2.1 and are documented in the HTML document, Supplemental 9. List of Supplemental Files: ROCEEH Archaeological Observations - File name: FaunalData_52923_NOANIMALS.csv Retrieved from Role of Culture in Early Expansions of Humans Out-of Africa Database (http://www.roceeh.net) Original PHP query is found in Supplemental X. The zooarchaeological observations have been removed from the original PHP query. ROCEEH Dates Data - File name: Dates_Geog.csv Retrieved from Role of Culture in Early Expansions of Humans Out-of Africa Database (http://www.roceeh.net) Original PHP query is found in Supplemental X. These are the Geolayer dates. ROCEEH Dates Data - File name: Dates_Assem.csv Retrieved from Role of Culture in Early Expansions of Humans Out-of Africa Database (http://www.roceeh.net) Original PHP query is found in Supplemental X. These are the ArchLayer dates. ROCEEH Dates Data - File name: Dates_ArchLayer.csv Retrieved from Role of Culture in Early Expansions of Humans Out-of Africa Database (http://www.roceeh.net) Original PHP query is found in Supplemental X. These are the Assemblage dates. Spatiotemporal Archaeological Observations - File name: ArchaeologicalData_V1.csv Derived from Supplemental 1 after removing observations that dated outside of the 145k to 50k year range, all NA values, and observations duplicated in time and space (1000-year range). Spatiotemporal Pseudoabsence Points - File name: AbsencePointData.csv Randomly generated absence points. 100 random points were generated in each millennium with archaeological observations, while avoiding locations where archaeological observations are observed. High-Resolution Spatiotemporal Predictions - File name: SDMGIF_combined.mp4 High-resolution mp4 file showing the predictions of the Neanderthal niche space from 145k to 30kya. Neanderthal Niche Space 145k to 30kya - File name: Human_Niche_Size.csv Quantification of the Neanderthal niche space for each millennium. Analysis Markdown Document Markdown illustrating step-by-step the methods used to organize and analyze the data. Delta O18 Record - File name: LisieckiRaymod18O.csv Delta O18 Record from Lisiecki & Raymo, 2005. Used in Figure 1 of the publication to illustrate the relationship between Neanderthal niche size and Delta O18 values. Neanderthal Niche Space 350k to Present - File name: Human_Niche_Size_350k.csv Neanderthal niche space estimates from 350k to the present based on the model constructed around the 145k to 50kya archaeological observations. Not discussed in the main publication. The NeanderEDGE Project is funded by the Independent Research Fund Denmark (Danmarks Frie Forskningsfond) case number 9062-00027B.
