Abstract:

The Megalopolis Basin (Peleponnese, Greece) hosted a large lake during the Pleistocene. Its sequence consists of fluviolacustrine deposits containing lignite seams. The paleolake sequence commences at ~900 ka and continued to ~150 ka, covering the late Early Pleistocene and the entire Middle Pleistocene (Tourloukis et al., 2018 and references therein). It offers the unique opportunity to investigate human activity in the basin and its environmental context through time, the goal of the MEGAPAL survey and CROSSROADS project (Harvati, this volume; Karkanas et al., this volume).
