In Song Terus (Java, Indonesia): Homo erectus gave way to Homo sapiens some 80,000 years ago

Whether Homo sapiens arrived in Southeast Asia before or after Marine Isotope Stage 5 (130-80 ka) is a hotly debated topic. In this context, the island of Java plays an important role due its rich fossil record spanning 1.8 Ma. Here we present two deciduous teeth discovered in the Song Terus site:...

Here we present two deciduous teeth discovered in the Song Terus site: a lower left deciduous first molar (ST06) dated back from older than 80 ka and an upper left deciduous first molar (ST04) which is younger than 60 ka. ST04 is compared with Lower to Upper Pleistoce...
