Abstract
In the excavations undertaken in the Pleistocene beds in Anatolia, a few human fossil remains have emergcd together with Palaeolithic cul- tures. In the summer field researches vvhich I lıave undertaken in the south of Anatolia in one cave and three rock shelters,sites occupied by Levalloiso- Mousterian and Upper Palaeolithic man have been established. It is to be hoped that other arcas in Turkey, e.g. the Gök Irmak valley, vvili also yield fossil evidence of prehistoric man.» Previously the only human fossil remains which had come to light were four molars found in the Levalloiso-Mous terian layers in the Mağracık caves near Antakya (old Antioch) in the summer season ol 1956. During the excavation of the first cave, vvhich I had discovered in 1954, vve found in the lovver part of the Middle Palaeolith ic (Levalloiso-Mousterian cultures of the Near East) tvvo upper perma- nent molars and one lovver permanent molar belonging to fossil man at a depth of 220 cms. in the stratigraphy.
