Petralona man

Japanese: ペトラローナ人 - ペトラローナじん(英語表記)Petralona man
Petralona man
An archaic human discovered in 1960 in the Petralona Cave in the Chalkidiki region of northern Greece. No stone tools were found. The Greek anthropologist Prianos considered this to be a typical ancestor of Neanderthals, but in recent times he has changed his claim to claim that it is even older and closer to Pithecanthropus, so its position is still inconclusive.

ギリシア北部,カルキディキ地方のペトラローナ洞窟で1960年に発見された旧人。伴出する石器はない。ギリシアの人類学者プリアノスは,これを典型的ネアンデルタール人の祖先とみたが,最近ではさらに古く,ピテカントロプスに近いと主張を変えているように,その位置づけは,まだ決定的ではない。【鈴木 尚】
