At Olduvai Gorge in northern Tanzania natural erosion exposed a series of superimposed geological beds containing rich artifacts and fossil assemblages spanning the past 18 million years The site is famous as a result of excavations conducted there since 1951 under the direction of Mary Leakey and her husband the late Louis Leakey This book records the archaeological finds in the upper part of the Olduvai Gorge sequence covering the period 12 to 04 million years ago and includes artifacts and faunal remains excavated from sites in Beds III IV and the Masek Beds. 3 Cockram Rd Tumoulin RoadTully Gorge National ParkTully Falls National ParkTo Mount GarnetTo Tully 40km MamuTropical To Silkwood Grant Falls lookout \r\fWooroonooran National Park  AshhurstManawatuRiverPalmerston North - Gisborne RailwayManawatu GorgeUpper Gorge Bridge TrackManawatu Gorge Loop TrackNorth Range RoadWoodvilleRecreationReserveBallanceGorge Road Hall Block RoadSaddl Gorge, Tanzania, provides a successful example of a recon-structed paleolandscape that is rich in detail and adds a smallstruction required multidisciplinary interaction of sedimen-nologists.

The formations discussed in this volume, Beds I and II, were deposited in the Lower and Middle Pleistocene and have yielded large quantities of the remains of early man, in the form of bones and stone tools and evidence of the environment in which they lived. Bed I, in which remains of Australopithecus boisei and Homo habilis have been found, is firmly dated between 1.9 million years for the lowest level and 1.65 million years for a level below the top. This third volume describes the excavations. In Part I, starting with the lowest levels and devoting a chapter to each main level, Dr Leakey describes the actual process of excavation and the finding of the principal remains. In Part II, Dr Leakey describes the circumstances of the discovery of the hominid skeletal remains. These range from purposive excavation to accidental discovery while collecting small stones for mixing in concrete. Finally, mammalian bones, as tools and as food remains are discussed.
