Abstract

Fossil ichnites of hominids found in Argentina are identified and described. The age of the sediments was determined using radiocarbon dating, by Uranium, OSL and paleomagnetic signatures of the sediments, along with an analysis of the associated megammalian tracks and their fossil bones. We conclude that the fossil ichnites dated about 30 ka BP.
