| Summary: | Our study investigates the paleoenvironmental conditions of an Upper Paleolithic site found in the
excavation of the North Adriatic Susak Island. Our research explores the range of the loess and loesslike sediments deposited on rudist limestone which is the substratum of the island. We studied the
Quaternary sediments by a coherent paleoenvironmental assessment method. The geomorphological
and the various chronological analysis contribute significantly to the extension of our knowledge on the
paleoenvironmental conditions of the Upper Paleolithic site (Radiocarbon age is 31,830 ±720 yr BP) on
Susak Island. |
