Studying prehistoric production processes of birch bark tar using computational modelling reveals what kinds of cognition were required for the materials produced by Neanderthal and early modern humans. Researchers of Team Langejans in the Materials Science and Engineering (MSE) department (TU Delft) recently published two papers on one of the world's oldest transformative technologies, publishing their findings in Nature Scientific Reports. Measuring complexity Birch bark tar is the first time we see evidence of creating a new material, said Dr.
