A recent project called the Cyrenaica Prehistory Project (CPP),[1] run by Graeme Barker of Cambridge, began in 2007.[2] The goal of this program is to expand knowledge and understanding of the cave's sequence of use and the history of environmental changes and how humans had adapted to those changes.[2] The CPP attempts to reconstruct the history of climate, environment, and human activity at Haua Fteah.[2] The project plans on gaining insight to these areas through geomorphological, palaeoecological, and archaeological studies inside the cave and from the surrounding landscape.[2] A few questions that the CPP aims to answer include, "When did anatomically modern humans first arrive on Africa's northern shores? How did they and earlier populations deal with the effects of profound and often abrupt climatic change? Was `behavioral modernity' critical to their successful colonization of North Africa?
