Amud Cave - Amud Cave

Japanese: アムッド洞窟 - アムッドどうくつ
Amud Cave - Amud Cave
An archaeological site on the shores of Lake Tiberias in Palestine. Investigated in 1961 and 1964 by the University of Tokyo's West Asian Pleistocene Human Remains Research Team, a Paleolithic cultural layer (layer B) containing human bones known as Amud man and a cultural layer (layer A) containing artifacts from various periods after the Bronze Age were identified. The important layer is the lower layer B, which is related to the characteristics of the Amud man, but the stone tools found there are different in appearance from those of the Levalloazo-Mousterian culture, the Middle Paleolithic culture in this region.

パレスティナのティベリアス湖岸にある遺跡。1961,64年に東京大学西アジア洪積世人類遺跡調査団によって調査され,アムッド人と呼ばれる人骨を伴う旧石器時代文化層(B層)と青銅器時代以後の各種時代の遺物を含む文化層(A層)が確認されている。重要なのは下にあるB層であり,アムッド人の特徴とも関連するが,そこで発見されている石器群はこの地域の中期旧石器時代文化であるルバロアゾ・ムスティエ文化のものとは様相を異にしている。
