from "Two distinct breccia layers, a lower light red unit and an overlying darker red one... the darker one [contains] most of the fossil vertebrate remains... there is no sharp discontinuity between the layers, which were deposited during the same period... faunal analyses... suggest a late middle Pleistocene age (probably around 300-250 Ka) for the entire contained mammalian assemblage" "heavily calcified breccias that are rich in fossil bone and teeth" including "cobbles and small boulders"
U.a. am Fundort ausgegraben: Gigantopithecus blacki
