Comments
AaHp-VP, Bondi: The find of a shrub-ox (cf. Euceratherium sp.) metacarpal at this site was somewhat surprising since previous records of this taxon have been located south and west of the site. The age is supported by a similar date on associated wood (BGS-1404: 13,225 +/- 200 BP). Pollen and plant macrofossil assemblages indicate a forest-tundra environment.
