Extract

During the past year excavations have been continued in the deposits filling the channel cut through the Coombe Rock of post-Early Mousterian (Levalloisian) age and situated between Northfleet and Swanscombe. “The floor” at the base of the succession has continued to yield a fine series of contemporary Middle Mousterian (Levalloisian) implements, together with artifacts derived from the Coombe Rock and earlier deposits. Associated with the implements are the remains of Elephas primigenius, Rhinoceros antiquitatis, Microtus arvalis, M. anglicus, and M. nivalis.
