Center for Archaeological Science, Sichuan University publishes new evidence of tropical rainforest adaptation in South Asia from the Late Pleistocene to the mid-Holocene

Center for Archaeological Science, Sichuan University publishes new evidence of tropical rainforest adaptation in South Asia from the Late Pleistocene to the mid-Holocene

In recent years, the adaptation to extreme environments during the dispersal of modern humans has attracted much attention. For example, when and how modern humans expanded to high-altitude, permafrost, desert, and tropical rainforest environments is at the forefront of archaeological debate. Archaeological evidence from Sri Lanka, located in the Indian Ocean, shows that evidence of modern human fossils, microliths, bone tools, and symbolic ornaments appeared around 40,000 years ago, which fully demonstrates that the tropical rainforests of Sri Lanka have special significance for early human foraging patterns. To further understand the continuation and change of the tropical rainforest foraging tradition represented by microliths from the end of the Pleistocene to the early and middle Holocene...
