Peters, J.
Late Quaternary mammalian remains from Central and Eastern Sudan and their palaeoenvironmental significance
1992  Series

The archaeozoological record of terminal Pleistocene to Middle Holocene sites in the Central Sudanese Nile and Upper Atbara regions is interpreted in terms of environmental change. On the basis of the species composition of the faunal assemblages, shifts in climate and Vegetation can be observed. Using the present-day position of the Vegetation zones, the extent of their north-south movements during the late Quaternary has been assessed. In view of this development, the introduction of livestock in Central and Eastern Sudan has been evaluated.
