• Understanding the ancient habitats of the last-interglacial (late MIS 5) Neanderthals of Central Iberia: paleoenvironmental and taphonomic evidence from the Cueva del Camino (Spain) site (2012, methodology): “Legend data from: *Domínguez-Rodrigo and Piqueras (2003); The proximity of Descubierta cave, an earlier locality, with a very rich lithic sample, provides an abundance of stone tools at the surface of the hill, just above Cueva del Camino.”
• An ecological neo-taphonomic study of carcass consumption by lions in Tarangire National Park (Tanzania) and its relevance for human evolutionary biology (2014, background): “This indicates that marks left on dense cortical bone by lions are on average very small; smaller than previously reported by Domínguez-Rodrigo and Piqueras (2003).”
• A study of dimensional differences of tooth marks (pits and scores) on bones modified by small and large carnivores (2012, methodology): “Although the experimental work of Delaney-Rivera et al. broadly agreed with Domínguez-Rodrigo and Piqueras’ (2003) scheme of three carnivore groups, the greater overlap documented by Delaney-Rivera et al. made these authors argue for caution when interpreting carnivore type based on tooth pit sizes…”
• Komodo monitor (Varanus komodoensis) feeding behavior and dental function reflected through tooth marks on bone surfaces, and the application to ziphodont paleobiology (2009, background): “…Binford et al. 1988; Blumenschine 1986, 1988, 1995; Blumenschine and Selvaggio 1988; Marean and Spencer 1991; Marean et al. 1992; Blumenschine and Marean 1993; Capaldo 1997; DominguezRodrigo 1999, 2001; Munson 2000; Dominguez-Rodrigo and Piqueras 2003; Munson and Garniewicz 2003; Pobiner 2006).”
