Macrofossils, "The fossiliferous area around Kalimantsi village in the Middle Struma basin covers a large region (c. 6 km2) of late Miocene deposits including more than 10 known fossil mammal localities (labelled KM sites). Recent biostratigraphic revision demonstrates that all KM sites are of Turolian age.KM-1, belonging to the newly established Gradishte lithocomplex, is likely to yield a fauna of early Turolian age, while other KM faunas (referred to the Strumyani Genetic Lithocomplex) are considered to belong to the middle Turolian (Tzankov et al. 2005; Spassov et al. 2006)" | ||
