Pleistocene mammals from Extinction Cave, Belize

A small mammalian fauna is recorded from Extinction Cave (also called Sibun Cave), east of Belmopan, on the Sibun River, Belize, Central America. The animals recognized are armadillo (†Dasypus bellus), American lion (†Panthera atrox), jaguar (P. onca), puma or mountain lion (Puma concolor), Florida spectacled bear (†Tremarctos floridanus), javelina or collared peccary (Tayassu tajacu), llama (probably †Palaeolama mirifica), red brocket deer (Mazama americana), bison (Bison sp.) and Mexican half-ass (†Equus conversidens): sabre-tooth tiger († Smilodon fatalis) may also be represented: (‘†’ indicates an extinct taxon.) Spectacled bear and bison are absent from the region today. The bison record is one of the more southerly known. The bear record almost the most westerly known and the first of two for Central America.The accepted manuscript in pdf format is listed with the files at the bottom of this page.

Report to the supreme council of antiquities on the 2001-2002 field season of the Dakhleh Oasis project

The Dakhleh Oasis Project (DOP) is a long-term regional study of the interaction between environmental changes and human activity in the closed area of the Dakhleh Oasis, Western Desert of Egypt, but including the larger area of the Palaeoasis. The study includes all the time since the first incursion of man in the Middle Pleistocene, perhaps 400,000 years ago, down to the 21st century oasis farmers, and all the human activity and all the changing environmental conditions for which there is evidence within the time period
