Holocene-Late Pleistocene Climatic Ice Core
Three ice cores to bedrock from the Dunde ice cap on the north-central QinghaiTibetan Plateau ofChina provide a detailed record of Holocene and Wisconsin-Wurm late glacial stage (LGS) climate changes in the subtropics. The records reveal that LGS conditions were apparently colder, wetter, and dustier than Holocene conditions. The LGS part of the cores is characterized by more negative 8180 rati...
متن کاملThe Late Pleistocene Cultures of South America
All these views can be accomodated by emphasizing different archeological records in different geographical areas. That is, prior to the outset of deglaciation between 15,000 and 13,000 years ago, the first South Americans may have been confined to productive, open terrain or patchy forests in lowland environments where they may have moved quickly and adapted readily. Movement into the high alt...
متن کاملCharacterizing the Late Pleistocene MSA Lithic Technology of Sibudu, KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa
Studies of the African Middle Stone Age (MSA) have become central for defining the cultural adaptations that accompanied the evolution of modern humans. While much of recent research in South Africa has focused on the Still Bay and Howiesons Poort (HP), periods following these technocomplexes were often neglected. Here we examine lithic assemblages from Sibudu that post-date the HP to further t...

متن کاملIncomes in South Africa since the fall of Apartheid
ing from the Selection Problem We begin by describing the approach of DiNardo, Fortin, and Lemieux (1996). Note that the density functions for income in periods t and t′ may be written as f(y|T = t) = ∫ g(y|x, T = t)h(x|T = t)dx (20) and f(y|T = t′) = ∫ g(y|x, T = t′)h(x|T = t′)dx (21) respectively, where g(y|x, ·) is the density of income given the observable attributes of the individual and t...
