Moreover, the Siuren I rock-shelter is still the only Crimean Aurignacian site. Taking into consideration the uniqueness of Siuren I in the Crimea, before discussion of new investigations of the site during the 1990s and their results, it is useful to describe previous investigations and interpretations of the archaeological record at the site. This background will help to explain both the methodology employed during our new investigations and our attempt to understand the entire archaeological context of the site in the framework of modern Paleolithic research.

The Crimean MP undoubtedly belongs to the sphere of ideas and logic of development of the European Palaeolithic. However it survived until comparatively late (ca. 30 kyr BP) which adds originality to the process of the local MP / UP transition.
