This paper presents new excavation results from a high-altitude (1,073m) cave, Dargan Shelter, in the upper Blue Mountains, Australia which indicate that occupation first occurred ~ 20,000 years ago.
Late Pleistocene-Early Holocene Pacific coast-Andes connections in southern Peru
We review evidence for Pacific coast-Andean highland interactions in the Terminal Pleistocene and Early Holocene in southern Peru.
