Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report |
Excavation by Charles McBurney and John Clegg during the early 1960s revealed a sequence with a Mousterian occupation, of which the principal finds were two bout coupé handaxes, stratified close to the base of a Middle Devensian hyaena-den accumulation. The human occupation should belong within the period 64-38 ka with comparative and stratigraphic evidence favouring a date within the earlier part of this range before 50 ka. The hyaena occupation probably extends from at least 40 ka (if not 60 ka) until c. 24 ka. There is a short appendix listing post-medieval finds (79). |
