Don't miss the opportunity to submit your abstracts to the session "S_033: The Quaternary record of large mammals from Eastern and Southern Africa: systematics, palaeobiology and palaeoecology" of the next INQUA Congress, which will be held in Lucknow, India on 28 Jan–3 Feb 2027.

The deadline for abstract submission is 15 Feb 2026!

The session will be a unique opportunity to discuss about the diversity of Quaternary African large mammals (including hominins) and the impact of Quaternary climate change on ecosystems, species interactions, and mammal dispersal and turnover. No other session on African palaeontology/palaeoanthropology is available at the congress, which is the most important in the world for Quaternary research.

Field research and training provide a wealth of satisfaction, but perhaps the greatest gift this year was welcoming part of the Olduvai team to the Italian Ambassador's Residence in Dar es Salaam.

It was a beautiful evening, in which we celebrated 15 years of collaboration between Italy and Tanzania in paleosciences.

Thanks to the authorities who participated representing the major scientific institutions of the country (Ministry of Natural Resources and Tourism, Antiquities Division, Ngorongoro Conservation Area Authority, National Museum of Tanzania, UNESCO, University of Dodoma, University of Dar es Salaam) and to all the other guests.

Thanks to his Excellency the Italian Ambassador Giuseppe Coppola, his family and the Embassy staff!

It was unforgettable!
