摘要
根据发现的哺乳动物化石大熊猫、东方剑齿象、巨貘等种类推测,萍乡市竹山园洞动物化石的时代为更新世中、晚期,很可能处于中期和晚期之间。和动物化石伴出的一件石片,从其痕迹看,应该是人工打击的。
The fossil site, named the Zhushanyun Cave, is about 40 km east of Pingxiang City, Jiangxi Province. The deposits in the cave were divided into 5 stratified layers from top to bottom (Figure 2), some mammalian fossils found in the layers 2-5 and a flake unearthed in the layer 5.
The fossil mammals consist of Ailuropoda melanoleuca fovealis, Stegodon orientalis, Me-gatapirus augustus, etc., belonging to the Ailnropoda-Stegadon fauna. The fossiliferous deposit of the site is thought to be late Middle-early Upper Pleistocene in geological age.
