Stable isotope paleoecology of Late Pleistocene Middle Stone Age humans from the Lake Victoria basin, Kenya.
Paleoanthropologists have long argued that environmental pressures played a key role in human evolution. However, our understanding of how these pressures mediated the behavioral and biological diversity of early modern humans and their migration patterns within and out of Africa is limited by a lack of archaeological evidence associated with detailed paleoenvironmental data. Here, we present t...
متن کاملOptically stimulated luminescence in synthetic quartz
Optically stiniulated luminescence (OSL). has been studied in synthetic quartz crystals. which had previously been exposed to Jtor X-irradiations. The main emission hands appeared at 380 and -~440 nm. The excitation spectra of these emission bands were now measured and showed both a maximum at 330nm. This maximum coincides with an excitation maximum of the phototransferred thermoluminescence (P...
متن کاملGreat Basin Vegetation in the Late Pleistocene
Paleoecological sources indicate that the location and extent of Sierra Nevada rangelands have varied significantly during the last 20,000 years. Modern vegetative associations are recent, with montane wet meadows appearing during the last 3,000 years. A late Pleistocene sagebrush grassland existed where montane and subalpine forests occur today. In the central Sierra a pattern of deglaciation ...
متن کاملRadiocarbon and Blue Optically Stimulated Luminescence Chronologies of the Oitavos Consolidated Dune (western Portugal)
The dune of Oitavos, the underlying paleosol, and Helix sp. gastropod shells found within the paleosol were dated using a combination of radiocarbon and blue optically stimulated luminescence (OSL). The organic component of the paleosol produced a significantly older age (~20,000 cal BP) than the OSL age measurement (~15,000 yr), while 14C age measurements on the inorganic component and the gas...
متن کاملMiddle Pleistocene bifaces from Fengshudao (Bose Basin, Guangxi, China).
The Bose (also Baise) Basin in Guangxi, southern China is well known for the presence of Paleolithic bifacially worked implements. The Bose Basin handaxes came to the attention of the international scientific community primarily for two reasons: 1) the age at 803 ka (thousands of years), places it at the Early to Middle Pleistocene transition; and 2) the presence of bifaces tests the validity o...
