This volume documents fieldwork conducted in the Pabbi Hills by the British Archaeological Mission to Pakistan as part of its Palaeolithic and Pleistocene research programme in 1986-1990, with the aim of finding evidence for early hominid occupation and placing this in its environmental and chronological context. Detailed results of the field surveys and excavations are presented here for the first time. The fossil remains from the surveys constitute the main body of evidence; by the end of the 1990 field season, over 40,000 specimens had been found. Every effort has been made to present as complete a record of the finds as possible. Given the lack of detailed data on the vertebrate fossil content of the Upper Siwaliks (and Early Pleistocene in Asia generally), it is hoped that this report will help scholars interested in the Upper Siwaliks in particular, but also the taphonomic aspects of fluvial assemblages in general.
