Abstract

THE classical work on the Quaternary chronology in Africa has been carried out in East Africa by geologists, palaeontologists and archaeologists. The general scheme of a sequence of pluvial and non-pluvial periods which had been developed was later on widely adopted in all parts of Africa. Revaluation of the factual evidence and warning against uncritical acceptance of the East African pluvial chronology, especially from geological quarters1–3, led to the conclusion that there existed in East Africa evidence for at least one major pluvial, the Upper-Pleistocene Gamblian pluvial.
