The Early Middle Palaeolithic Site of Kesselt - Op de Schans (Belgian Limburg) Excavation Campaign 2008

During the summer of 2008, a second excavation campaign took place at the early Middle Palaeolithic site of Kesselt - Op de Schans (Limburg, Belgium). Two small knapping spots, found in identical stratigraphic positions were examined. The results of this campaign support previous findings and allow the reconstruction of the ancient land surface on which four clusters of lithic artefacts were scattered. Their position within the chronostratigraphic sequence suggests an attribution to the transition MIS-9 / MIS-8.
