Middle Paleolithic Neanderthal Open-Air Camp and Hyena Den Westeregeln (D)—Competition for Prey in a Mammoth Steppe Environment of Northern Germany (Central Europe)
A gypsum karst sinkhole at Westeregeln (north-central Germany) was filled during the Late Pleistocene, first by fluvial flooding, then by solifluctation, and finally with wind-transported loess. Pleistocene mollusks and bones of snakes, birds, micro- and macromammals, and hyena coprolites were accumulated, often mixed in gravel or sand layers with Middle Paleolithic artifacts, whereas ice wedges reach deep into the sinkhole. The high amount of sm…
Hermann's Cave (Germany)- A Late Pleistocene Cave Bear Den
The northern German Hermann’s Cave below the 1.141 a.s.l meters high Brocken peak in the centre of the Harz Mountains (Saxony-Anhalt) was discovered by chance during road construction work at the village Rübeland in the year 1866. It was explored and a first map was presented with first cave descriptions 1889 by the geologists Prof. Dr. J.H. Kloos and Prof. Dr. M. Müller from the Brunswick University. In 1890 the cave became one of the historical…

The First Neolithic Open Air Shore and Shell Midden Site of Chert Explorers of the Hvar-Lisičicí Culture on the Island of Hvar, Croatia
On the Island Hvar (Croatia, Mediterranean), the first Neolithic open-air shore site of the Hvar-Lisičicí Culture—found to the northwest of Vrboska at the western edge of the Maslinica Bay—is reported, in addition to already known cave sites. The first survey of this partially eroded beach site has produced ceramic fragments, marine mollusks, domestic animal bones, numerous chert artifacts or debris, and mobile art. Evidence suggests that the sit…

Steppe lion remains imported by Ice Age spotted hyenas into the Late Pleistocene Perick Caves hyena den in northern Germany
Upper Pleistocene remains of the Ice Age steppe lion Panthera leo spelaea (Goldfuss, 1810) have been found in the Perick Caves, Sauerland Karst, NW Germany. Bones from many hyenas and their imported prey dating from the Lower to Middle Weichselian have also been recovered from the Perick Cave hyena den. These are commonly cracked or exhibit deep chew marks. The absence of lion cub bones, in contrast to hyena and cave bear cub remains in the Peric…
Discoveries of Neolithic prehistoric sites at Pleistocene carbonate rock shelters on the east coast of the UAE
Three newly discovered prehistoric sites on the east coast of the United Emirates (UAE) are described. All are located on surfaces of Pleistocene carbonates or rock shelters that are generally rare along the eastern coast of the Gulf of Oman. Aqqah 1 (Le Meridien al Aqqah Beach Resort), the most important and best preserved of these sites, is a partially collapsed rock shelter with an exposed section, lithic finds and marine molluscs. Deriving an…
