File S1 - Middle Pleistocene Human Remains from Tourville-la-Rivière (Normandy, France) and Their Archaeological Context

Headings and captions of the supporting text, supporting figures, and supporting tables. Text S1. Surface alteration of the lithic artefacts. Text S2. The Tourville example of non-Levallois laminar debitage. Text S3. Preliminary use-wear results. Text S4. U-series and ESR analyses. Text S5. Preservation of the Tourville fossils. Text S6. Comparison groups used in the morphometric analysis. Text S7. CT-scan methodology and results. Figure S1.Spatial distribution of the faunal remains. Figure S2. The D2 inf faunal assemblage. Figure S3. Spatial distribution of lithic artefacts and focus on the knapping area. Figure S4. Refitting sequence comprising 46 pieces from the knapping concentration (a). While most elements of the reduction sequence are represented (waste, core management and shaping flakes, fragments of flakes and blades), several refitting sequences (b and c) show that the cores and largest products were exported. Figure S5. Rocourt-type debitage. 1- Elongated éclats débordants refit with laminar flake fragments. The negatives evince a bipolar debitage method producing either laminar flakes or blades. 2, 3 – Rocourt-type blades. Figure S6. Examples of macro-wear (scarring) on Levallois products probably used to work soft animal materials. Figure S7.1. U-series results of five bone fragments of the human remains. Top left: sample holder before analysis, left column: laser ablation analysis spots (the spot diameters are around 250 µm across); right column: U-series isotope results. When the 230Th/238U ratio is >234U/238U then leaching has occurred and no age can be calculated. Figure S7.2. U-series results on eight faunal teeth. Left: photos on the cross sections with laser ablation pits. The arrows indicate the analysis direction. Middle column: U-series isotope results. Right column: apparent U-series age estimates. Leaching is indicated by 400 ka age estimates, U-concentrations too low for age calculation are shown as zero ages. Figure S8. Schematic representation of the adjusted Z-scores for Tourville humerus relative to Pre-neandertal (blue curve), Neandertal (red curve), and extant modern human variability (green curve). Dmax = maximal diameter at mid-diaphysis; Dmin = minimal diameter at mid-diaphysis (M6); P6/12 = Perimeter at mid-diaphysis (M7a); P5/12 = Perimeter at the level of the deltoid tuberosity; INDTub = [(P5/12)/(P6/12)*100]; INDia = [(Dmax/Dmin)*100]. Figure S9. Comparison of the deltoid lateral crest insertion to (A) the left humerus of La Sima de los Huesos humerus III (anterior view) and (B) the crest (lateral view) from Carretero et al. [52]. Close-up (C) of the Tourville specimen (lateral view). Dotted line: orientation of the crest. Figure S10. Schematic representation of the adjusted Z-scores of the Tourville ulna relatively to the Neandertal variability (blue curve) and extant modern humans (green curve). Same legend as Table S4. Figure S11. Schematic representation of the adjusted Z-scores of the Tourville radius relatively to the Preneandertal variability (blue curve), Neandertal variability (red curve) and extant modern humans (green curve). Same legend as Table S5. Table S1. U-series and ESR data obtained for all the Tourville samples. Table S2. Radioelement concentration obtained for the sediment. Table S3. Specimens used for comparing the Tourville upper limb dimensions and the cross-section properties of the humerus. Table S4. Dimensions of the Tourville humerus. Table S5. Cross-sectional geometric properties of the Tourville humerus and comparison with the Tabun C1 and Neandertal sample. Table S6. Dimensions of the Tourville ulna. Table S7. Dimensions of the Tourville radius. (ZIP)
