Description :
The mammalian assemblage and archaeological finds from the Lower Paleolothic hominid site of Evron Quarry, situated on the northern coastal plain of Israel, are described and discussed. The mammalian faunule from Evron comprises a biogeographical mixture, a result of biotic exchanges with Africa, the Oriental region, and the Palaearctic. This exchange may have been associated with a post-'Ubeidiya hominid dispersal, either from Africa or south Asia via the Levantine corridor.
