Liebe GfU Mitglieder,
unser Vereinsjahr seit der letzten Mitgliederversammlung am 08.07.2023 war reich an Aktionen und Veranstaltungen. Nach unserer Mitgliederversammlung fand im selben Monat am 27.07. eine Tagesexkursion ins Altmühltal statt. Diese führte unser Partnerverein Eiszeitkunst im Lonetal e.V. durch und GfU Mitglieder schlossen sich gerne an. Prof. Thorsten Uthmeier von der Universität Erlangen führte fachkundig an den Fundstellen.

Ladies and gentlemen, Dean Stehle, representatives of Romina EiszeitQuell, dear colleagues, students, and friends of the Institute, dear Dr. Cerrito,
It is a great honour and pleasure for me to introduce the 26th laureate of the Tübingen Prize for Early Prehistory and Quaternary Ecology. Covering more than a quarter of a century now, the prize-winning works record the development of our field in a fascinating way.
