The Department of Anthropology Laboratory for MicroArchaeology (ALMA) aims to study the microscopic archaeological record. We focus on developing, testing, and applying new approaches to understand the past using the invisible remains left by our ancestors. ALMA's research has three main aspects: fieldwork, experiments, and the development of new methods. Research lines include prehistoric fire technology, anthropogenic impact in archaeological sites, and microscopic evolution of human life.
