Cognitive Models in Palaeolithic Archaeology is an edited volume that champions the use of cognitive models in the analysis of Palaeolithic remains. The volume will be a landmark in the development of cognitive archaeology by demonstrating the insights that can be gained by applying cognitive models to Palaeolithic evidence.

Thomas Wynn, PhD, is Distinguished Professor of Anthropology at the University of Colorado, Colorado Springs. He has published extensively in Palaeolithic archaeology, with a particular emphasis on cognitive evolution. Frederick L. Coolidge, PhD, is Professor of Psychology at the University of Colorado, Colorado Springs. He focuses primarily on behavioral genetics, paleopsychology, and personality disorders across the lifespan. Both editors are well-known in paleoanthropology as advocates of the enhanced working memory hypothesis for recent cognitive evolution. In 2012, they co-founded the UCCS Center for Cognitive Archaeology. They have also published numerous articles and two books together: The Rise of Homo sapiens: The Evolution of Modern Thinking (2009) and How To Think Like a Neandertal (OUP 2012).
