Confirming ephemeral human occupation is a crucial issue in cave archaeology. The project 'Tracing human presence in caves of Polish Jura' focuses on the application of molecular methods to decode the history of past human activities in cave sediments in the Krakow-Czestochowa Upland. The results will be compared with archaeological and palaeoecological proxies. Keywords: Poland, molecular analyses, sedimentary sequence, cave occupation, Introduction Caves have attracted people since the dawn of time and have accumulated a record of repeated human entries through many millennia. Detailed archaeological fieldwork allows us to understand many [...]
