ABSTRACT

Cave site in southern Spain, east of Malaga, with evidence of Mousterian occupation as recently as 27 Ka. A well-preserved and typical Neanderthal lower jaw from the site is said to date from ca. 30 Ka; this date makes it, along with more fragmentary remains of similar age from Portugals Figueira Brava, Salemas and Columbeira Caves, the latest Neanderthal fossil known.
