Es Skhul
Es Skhul (meaning ''kids'') ((アラビア語:السخول)) is a cave site situated c. 20 kilometers south of the city of Haifa, Israel, and c. 3 kilometers from the Mediterranean Sea. The prehistoric site, was first excavated by Dorothy Garrod in the summer of 1928. The excavations revealed the first evidence of the late Epipalaeolithic Natufian culture, characterised by the presence of abundant microliths, human burials and ground stone tools. Skhul also represents one area where Neanderthals - present in the region from 200,000 to 45,000 years ago - lived alongside these humans dating to 100,000 years ago.〔Olson, S. Mapping Human History. Houghton Mifflin, New York (2003). p.74-75.〕 The cave also has Middle Palaeolithic layers.
The remains found at Es Skhul, together with those found at the Wadi el-Mughara Caves and Mugharet el-Zuttiyeh, were classified in 1939 by Arthur Keith and Theodore D. McCown as ''Palaeoanthropus palestinensis'', a descendent of ''Homo heidelbergensis''.〔(The Palaeolithic Origins of Human Burial ), Paul Pettitt, 2013, p59〕〔(Human Adaptation in the Asian Palaeolithic: Hominin Dispersal and Behaviour during the Late Quaternary ), Ryan J. Rabett, 2012, p90〕〔(The stone age of Mount Carmel : report of the Joint Expedition of the British School of Archaeology in Jerusalem and the American School of Prehistoric Research, 1929-1934 ), p18〕
