Two hunting episodes of middle Palaeolithic age at La Cotte de Saint‐Brelade, Jersey (Channel Islands)
Abstract
The contents of two levels from the cave of La Cotte de Saint‐Brelade apparently document two occasions on which man was able to kill a number of woolly mammoth and woolly rhinoceros of age groups not otherwise represented amongst the bones brought back to the site. Evidence is also discussed which suggests that although the site had previously been intensely occupied, the mammoth and rhinoceros levels represent only brief periods of occupation for the purpose of butchery of the carcasses.
