Here we present the first multiproxy paleoenvironmental record from Mpondoland covering 37,000 years of vegetation and climate change. Hunter-gatherers collected a variety of woody taxa characterized by their combustion and medicinal properties shorturl.at/fpsNR

Our paper (and the beautiful Waterfall Bluff rockshelter) make the cover of the latest Quaternary Research journal. Read all about it here: cambridge.org/core/journals/…

@MDPetraglia Haha yes that’s the one, Mike!

@P5Project You mean the fine journal, Quaternary Research. Congratulations!
