Through a precise lithic technology approach from final Mousterian, Châtelperronian, Proto- and early Aurignacian, Morgan is looking for evidence of possible contacts between the last Neanderthals and the first migrant Anatomically Modern Humans. He is mainly  working on Châtelperronian sites such as Les Cottés, Quinçay and Fontenioux located in the central part of France.  With his experience of flintknapping, Morgan is also working on the identification of percussion techniques through the Paleolithic.
