Heavily eroded Pleistocene landscape and site-forming processes of the Acheulean artifacts-bearing Holocene sediments, Eastern Desert, Sudan

A new article by an international research team, co-authored by Prof. Mirosław Masojć and Grzegorz Michalec from our Institute, has been published in the pages of the journal Quaternary Science Advances.

This article presents the research results on site formation processes, optically stimulated luminescence (OSL) dating, and paleomagnetic research on a site located in a highly deflated desert area. The discussed site – EDAR 6, occupies the central position within the agglomeration of Pleistocene localities in the Eastern Desert of Sudan, known in the literature as EDAR (Eastern Desert Atbara River). Dating results indicate that sedimentation of Unit III started around 10 ka years ago in this area.
