Abstract Highly resolved, well-dated paleoclimate records from the southern South African coast are needed to contextualize evolution of highly diverse extratropical plant communities Greater Cape Floristic Region (GCFR) and assess environmental impacts on early human hunter-gatherers. We present new speleothem stable oxygen carbon isotope ratios (δ 18 O c δ 13 C) two caves at Pinnacle Point, Africa, covering time between 330 43 ka. Composite C were constructed for Staircase Cave PP29 by...

Abstract We present new stable oxygen and carbon isotope composite records (δ 18 O, δ 13 C) of speleothems from Sandkraal Cave 1 (SK1) on the South African south coast for time interval between 104 ka (with a hiatus 48 41 ka). Statistical comparisons using kernel-based correlation analyses semblance based continuous wavelet transforms inform relationships speleothem to other proxies their changes through time. Between 105 ~70 ka, O values at SK1 are likely related rainfall seasonality....
Abstract Coastal geomorphic systems have been studied widely to understand the responses of shorelines fluctuating sea levels. Submerged shorelines, remnant Pleistocene sea-level lowstands, are well preserved on South African continental shelf. This paper describes work undertaken better offshore coastal environments now submerged by high levels off south coast near Mossel Bay, Pinnacle Point archaeological locality. Multibeam bathymetry and side-scan sonar reveal evidence past fluctuations...
The study of plant remains in archaeological sites, along with a better understanding the use plants by prehistoric populations, can help us shed light on changes survival strategies hunter-gatherers and consequent impacts modern human cognition, social organization, technology. locality Pinnacle Point (Mossel Bay, South Africa) includes series coastal caves, rock-shelters, open-air sites occupations spanning Acheulian through Middle Stone Age (MSA) Later (LSA). These have provided some...
