Darwin Leon McNeill

Published: 2024-10-21
Subjects: History of Art, Architecture, and Archaeology, Other Ecology and Evolutionary Biology

This study investigates the potential of using contemporary African Grasslands as an ecological analog to understand the Pleistocene Eurasian Mammoth Steppe, a complex ecosystem known primarily through estimations, proxies, and extrapolation of the limited direct evidence. By examining the themes of climate, flora, and fauna, the research aims to assess the validity of African Grasslands in [...]
