Abstract
Fragmented fossilized bones, embedded in a large boulder broken away from a cliff near Zwartklip along the False Bay shore, are described. It is estimated that the fossils belong to the terminal period of the Upper Pleistocene. The cliffs are composed of sediments of both marine and aeolian origin. They are surfaced by a hard secondary calcareous tufa. The origin of the deposits is thought to post-date the last Interglacial.
