AbstractWe present the study of a composite, yet continuous sedimentary succession covering the time interval spanning 2.6–0.36 Ma in the intramontane basin of Anagni (central Italy) through a dedicated borecore, field surveys, and the review of previous data at the three palaeontological and archaeological sites of Colle Marino, Coste San Giacomo and Fontana Ranuccio. By combining the magneto- and chronostratigraphic data with sedimentologic and biostratigraphic analysis, we describe the palaeogeographic and tectonic evolution of this region during this entire interval. In this time frame, starting from 0.8 Ma, the progressive shallowing and temporary emersion of the large lacustrine basins and alluvial plains created favorable conditions for early hominin occupation of the area, as attested by abundant tool industry occurrences and fossils. This study provides new constraints to better interpret the hominin migratory dynamics and the factors that influenced the location and spatial distribution during the early occupation of this region.

Abstract During the years 2012 to 2017, archaeological excavations were conducted at the localities of Cave 3, Cave 4 and Hilltop of the Nanshan (South Hill) Site. A total of 450sqm was excavated, revealing eight burials, two large-scale cisterns, about a dozen ash pits, and near 100 postholes. The excavation yielded more than 1000 artifacts made of pottery, stone and bone, as well as large amount of charred grains. The excavation uncovered important material for the discussion of prehistoric behavioral models, subsistence, human migration, cultural interaction, environmental evolution, the origins and development of the prehistoric cultures of Fujian and Taiwan, as well as the origin and dispersal of Austronesian groups.
