| Description | After massive land-sliding in September 2014 we realized a survey in the exposed parts of sites DVII and III, archaeologically negative. However after deep ploughing at DVIIa and DVIII in winter 2014/2015, accumulations of bones occured on the Neogene subsoil or in the uppermost loess at several findspots at Dolní Věstonice IIa. The recorded bone fragments are predominantly of mammoth (tusk, molars, skull, pelvis fragments, ribs, long bones and calcaneus) and reindeer (vertebrae). Lithics were only represented by four scattered artefacts (a micro-core, a sidescraper and two fragments of flint), not associated to any of the bone accumulations |
