Abstract

K-Ar dating of volcanics in the Jordan rift allows an estimation of the ages of widespread stratigraphic events in the eastern Mediterranean region. The data provide a link between Pleistocene deposits of Europe and Africa suggesting, in particular, age limits to the early Acheulian and Mousterian cultures.
