Early Pleistocene

2007
This chapter introduces the beginning of Pleistocene vertebrate records, starting from an overview of the latest Pliocene events and the Plio-Pleistocene transition. Understanding the early Pleistocene vertebrate record is impossible without the knowledge of the events characterizing the setting of early Pleistocene land vertebrate communities.

Early Pleistocene hominin teeth from Meipu, southern China

Journal of Human Evolution, 2021
The rarity and poor preservation of hominin fossils from the East Asian Early Pleistocene hamper our understanding of their taxonomy and possible phylogenetic relationship with other members of the genus Homo. In the 1970s, four isolated hominin teeth were recovered from the Meipu site, southern China, which biostratigraphic analysis placed in the late

Early Pleistocene Sediments in Indiana

The Journal of Geology, 1958
Exposures of both glacial and non-glacial sediments that are correlated with Kansan and Yarmouth stages have been discovered recently in southern Indiana. Distribution of Kansan stage till indicates that the Kansan glacier probably covered about the same amount of the state as did the Illinoian ice.

Making meaning from fragmentary fossils: Early Homo in the Early to early Middle Pleistocene

Journal of Human Evolution, 2023
In celebration of the 50th anniversary of the Journal of Human Evolution, we re-evaluate the fossil record for early Homo (principally Homo erectus, Homo habilis, and Homo rudolfensis) from early diversification and dispersal in the Early Pleistocene to the ultimate demise of H. erectus in the early Middle Pleistocene. The mid-1990s marked an important

Early Pleistocene and Holocene bryozoans from Indonesia.

Zootaxa, 2018
This paper describes 40 bryozoan species, comprising one cyclostome and 39 cheilostomes (8 anascan- and 31 ascophoran-grade), obtained from early Pleistocene and Holocene samples from two localities in Indonesia. Five of the cheilostomes are described as new species: Acanthodesia variegata n. sp., Pleurocodonellina javanensis n.

Late Pleistocene climate drivers of early human migration

Nature, 2016
On the basis of fossil and archaeological data it has been hypothesized that the exodus of Homo sapiens out of Africa and into Eurasia between ~50-120 thousand years ago occurred in several orbitally paced migration episodes. Crossing vegetated pluvial corridors from northeastern Africa into the Arabian Peninsula and the Levant and expanding further ...

Pleistocene and Early Holocene Glaciations

1984
An overview of the geomorphic evidence of former glacial events is presented here based on a survey of the pertinent literature, evaluation of air photographs and topographic maps (Appendix 1), and my own field observations in the course of the 1970s.
