The proposed project is dedicated to the exhaustive analysis of subsistence strategies of Middle Pleistocene hominins in interglacial environments using the example of the German site of Schöningen. The focal point of the investigation is provided by the material of Sedimentation series 13-11, excavated before the end of 2005.The Middle Pleistocene site Schöningen 13-11, together with its various Sedimentation series represents an archive unique on a global scale, with an excellent preservation of organic remains, the analysis of which will allow, for the first time, a detailed insight into the functional Organization of Middle Pleistocene sites.The analysis is composed of five closely interlinked modules, which are concerned with the study of the organic remains of the Sedimentation series and the mode of their depositional processes (Project Aspect 2: archaeozoological analyses, Project Aspect 3: Biostratonomy). Results obtained here complement investigations of the Schöningen lithic artefacts and of the morphology of wooden artefacts, which are completed although not yet published.These analyses will be contextualized by three-dimensional spatial projection of their results (Project Aspect 1: Material processing and Refitting, Project Aspect 4: GIS analyses) and by a further module, which for the first time attempts to model Palaeolithic subsistence Systems (Project Aspect 5: Modelling)Work on Schöningen Sedimentation series 13-11 is directly integrated into current research into hominin adaptive mechanisms to interglacial environmental conditions during the Pleistocene and early Holocene presently being carried out by the Forschungsbereich Altsteinzeit of the Römisch- Germanisches Zentralmuseum.

拟议的项目致力于以德国舍宁根遗址为例，详尽分析中更新世人类在间冰期环境中的生存策略。2005年底之前挖掘的13-11号沉积系列的材料提供了调查的重点。中更新世Schöningen 13-11号遗址及其各种沉积系列代表了全球范围内独一无二的档案，有机遗迹保存完好，对其进行分析将首次允许，详细了解中更新世遗址的功能组织。该分析由五个密切相关的模块组成，这些模块与沉积系列的有机遗迹及其沉积过程模式的研究有关（项目方面2：考古动物学分析，项目方面3：生物地层学）。这里获得的结果补充了对舍宁根石制品和木制制品形态的研究，这些研究已经完成，但尚未发表。（（项目方面1：材料加工和改装，项目方面4：地理信息系统分析），并通过进一步的模块，首次尝试模拟旧石器时代的生存系统（项目方面五：Schöningen沉积系列13- 11直接纳入了目前由Forschungsbereich正在进行的更新世和全新世早期人类对间冰期环境条件的适应机制的研究罗马-德意志中央博物馆的旧时代。
