Abstract


Sedimentological characteristics of the different levels from the Gran Dolina (TD) section in the Atapuerca Cut (Burgos) are analyzed and climatic conditions inferred, with reference to the faunal and archaeological contents. The grounds for geochronological dating are stated as well as the correlation of climatic oscillations inferred from Gran Dolina with oceanic δ18O stages. Oscillations of humidity and pluvial regime are considered specially.
