New fossil hominins from the Upper Laetolil Beds, Laetoli, Tanzania
New data from old collections
Mumba rockshelter in northern Tanzania has served as a key benchmark sequence for understanding Late Pleistocene-Holocene archaeological changes in the region. A complete understanding of the site is complicated by multiple excavations across >90 years, with an unfortunate history of incomplete publication of those results, particularly for some of the older, larger-scale excavations from the 1930s and 1970s. We report here on newly recovered mat…
Paleoecology of Laetoli, Tanzania
Laetoli in northern Tanzania is one of the most important paleontological and paleoanthropological sites in eastern Africa. Fossils were first discovered in the area in the 1930s, but its significance for hominin evolution was only appreciated after Mary Leakey’s research began in the 1970s (Leakey and Harris, 1987). The site has yielded fossil hominins from the Upper Laetolil Beds (referred to as ULB; dated to 3.6–3.85 Ma), Upper Ndolanya Beds (…
A nonanalog Pliocene ungulate community at Laetoli with implications for the paleoecology of Australopithecus afarensis
Human burials at the Kisese II rockshelter, Tanzania
OBJECTIVES: The Late Pleistocene and early Holocene in eastern Africa are associated with complex evolutionary and demographic processes that contributed to the population variability observed in the region today. However, there are relatively few human skeletal remains from this time period. Here we describe six individuals from the Kisese II rockshelter in Tanzania that were excavated in 1956, present a radiocarbon date for one of the individua…
