“…The development of spatial analysis methods and the increased availability of the corresponding equipment (Stirn, 2014) have led to a continuous increase in the number of studies conducted in high mountain areas. These often produce results that significantly increase understanding of the use of these areas in both the Palaeolithic (Avni et al ., 2021; Efstratiou et al ., 2014; Gasparyan et al ., 2014; Gassiot et al ., 2017; Chen et al ., 2019; Ossendorf et al ., 2019) and in other periods (Caracausi et al ., 2018; Taylor et al ., 2019). The peculiar nature of high‐mountain areas has repeatedly led researchers to use spatial analyses, whether based on easily accessible routes (Kondo et al ., 2018; Li et al ., 2019), geology (Iovita et al ., 2020), march range (Loyola et al ., 2019), the course of palaeochannels (Breeze et al ., 2015), or conclusions drawn mainly on slope parameters and hydrology (Caracausi et al ., 2018).…”
