A fossil human from the Middle Pleistocene period discovered in 1965 in a limestone quarry about 50 km west of Budapest, Hungary. Also known as Beltesselos Man. Early Paleolithic pebble tools from the Buda culture and remains of a fire-using hearth were also discovered here, and it is thought to be the site of an activity from the Mindel glacial period about 400,000 years ago. There are two fossil human bones; No. 1 is a child's tooth, and No. 2 is the occipital bone of an adult male. The bones are much thicker than those of modern humans, but the size and degree of curvature are closer to modern humans, and the cranial cavity volume is estimated to be 1400 cc.
