Among the co-authors are researchers from the Institute of Archaeology at the University of Wroc\u0142aw \u2013 Grzegorz Michalec, Prof. J\u00f3zef Szykulski and Prof. Miros\u0142aw Masoj\u0107.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The study represents an international collaboration among archaeologists and geologists from Poland and Mongolia, including scholars affiliated with the Mongolian Academy of Sciences and the National University of Education in Ulaanbaatar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The article forms part of the National Science Centre project \u201c<em><a href=\"https:\/\/archeo.mongolia.uwr.edu.pl\/en\/\">Around Tsakhiurtyn Hondi. Research on the Stone Age of the borderland area between Altai and the Gobi desert in Mongolia<\/a><\/em>\u201d, carried out by the Institute of Archaeology at the University of Wroc\u0142aw with support from the National Science Centre (grant 2019\/33\/B\/HS3\/01113) and the University of Wroc\u0142aw\u2019s IDUB programme.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The research investigated site FV92, located by the palaeolake Luulityn Toirom in the Gobi Desert. Luminescence dating indicates that the lake existed and offered favourable conditions for settlement over 8,000 years ago.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Geoarchaeological analyses showed that site formation was initially driven by fluvial processes, later shifting to aeolian influences as the climate dried. Lithic artefacts predominantly reflect microblade technology, with use-wear indicating butchery and plant-processing activities. The transport of raw materials from the Altai Mountains suggests medium-range mobility of hunter-gatherer groups.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These results highlight that the early Holocene environment of the Gobi supported seasonal settlement due to the presence of lakes and milder climatic conditions. Site FV92 likely functioned as a seasonal camp with various economic and technological activities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The publication makes a significant contribution to understanding prehistoric human mobility and human\u2013environment interactions in Central Asia, underscoring the importance of this project in archaeologically assessing contacts and mobility during the Stone Age.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The full article is available open access in <a href=\"https:\/\/journals.plos.org\/plosone\/article?id=10.1371\/journal.pone.0330209\">PLOS ONE<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure
