Abstract

In the summer of 1990 a research team surveyed a series of alluvial fans in southwest Yemen for Lower Pleistocene sites related to the earliest human migration from Africa into Asia. The team found thirty sites and collected 2 381 artefacts of Middle and Upper Pleistocene age. Most sites were multicomponent with artefacts of different time periods widely scattered on the surface. The oldest sites were Middle Acheulean, which was widespread and appeared on all sites except two.
