Paleoanthropological research at the cave site of Apidima and the surrounding region (South Peloponnese, Greece)

Abstract

Paleoanthropological excavations and surveys at the cave site of Apidima (South Peleponnese, Greece) during the last fifteen years brought to light paleontological findings and prehistoric artifacts, the number of which approximates 30,000 recorded and classified remains. In particular, the discovery of a significant number of human fossil bones, which belong to 6-8 different individuals, distinguishes Apidima as the most important paleoanthropological site in Greece. These fossil remains were found in different stratigraphic layers of the site corresponding to different phases of the human evolution during the middle and the upper Pleistocene.
