Pleistocene environments and archaeology of the Dzerava skala Cave, Lesser Carpathians, Slovakia.
2005
This book summarizes the results held between 1912 and 2003 in
the Dzerava skala cave by Hillebrandt, Prosek, and the actual
international interdisciplinary team. These fieldworks opened
complex stratigraphic sections, showing combination of in situ
developed sediments, in-blown loess, and clays, paleosols and
clasts removed from elswhere, most probably from the above cave
chimneys. In terms of sedimentology, paleobotany and
paleontology, this sequence illustrates the climatic record
from the Holocene over the Last Glacial Maximum to the more
temperate oscillations of the Interpleniglacial, and, possibly,
early glacial. Human visits during the Pleistocene were
repeated but episodic in character. The Pleistocene record
comprises the Late Paleolithic, Gravettian (25 – 31,7 ka BP),
and the Early Upper Paleolithic to Late Middle Paleolithic (34
– 50 ka BP).
