Upper Palaeolithic (layer 2) and Middle Palaeolithic (layer 3) large faunas from El Harhoura 2 Cave (Témara, Morocco): paleontological, paleoécological and paleoclimatic data

Résumé

The El Harhoura 2 cave is situated in the commune of El Harhoura in the Temara region (Morocco). The entrance faces west, toward the ocean, around 200m away from the current shoreline and about 16m above sea level. The stratigraphy has currently 12 levels numbered from top to bottom. Level 1 is attributed to the early Neolithic. The archaeological material from level 2 places it within the Upper Palaeolothic (Iberomaurusian). Levels 3 to 11 are assigned to the Middle Palaeolithic (Aterian). Since 1977, a surface of 37m2 has been excavated, yielding particularly abundant remains of a large mammal fauna. This paper is about paleontological, paleoecological and paleoclimatologic data of layers 2 and 3 from El Harhoura 2.
