Provides data that is useful for both archeological and geological dating of human fossil remains. This book uses the results obtained from the dating techniques, both relative and absolute. It features charts which give the radiocarbon datings of Middle and Upper Paleolithic sites and cultures in Europe, the Near East and Africa.
This is the first book to appear which correlates within a single volume the relevant data for both archeological and geological dating of human fossil remains. The author was trained both as a geologist and as a prehistorian, and has written this book first to meet the needs of archeologists wishing to learn the stratigraphical frameworks now applied to Quaternary deposits, and second to meet the needs of geologists requiring to know the terminology of Paleolithic and Mesolithic cultures.
