Since 1982 research at the Boxgrove gravel pits in Southern England has been providing evidence for the behaviour and palaeoecology of Middle Pleistocene hominids. Over 90 excavation areas have been investigated during the course of the Boxgrove Project, many producing exceptionally preserved scatters of flint artifacts and mammalian fauna. This unique record is allowing aspects of hominid life including anatomy, tool manufacture, butchery and landuse to be studied. Through the clickable image below the latest results of this analysis can be found.
