Figure 1. Excavation area and stratigraphic sections of the “post-HP” sequence from Sibudu.

Figure 1

Upper left: Excavation grid. The lithic assemblages from the Sibudan come from the “Eastern Excavation”. Right: Sketch of the stratigraphic section of the eastern profile (C4, after Wadley). The complete “post-HP” sequence is highlighted in orange (layers BSP-BR Under YA2). Bottom left: Photograph depicting the stratigraphic section of the northern profile (C3) during excavations in 2013. The white lines mark the seven uppermost layers of the “post-HP”, or Sibudan, sequence from the top of BSP until the bottom of BM. Note the very fine lamination of archaeological layers in different colors caused by frequent combustion features (photograph by M. Will).
