In the course of explorations thirteen new Upper Palaeolithic find spots have been located both on the valley floor and on the plain surfaces on top of Rapur-velikonda forest hill ranges ranging from 610 to 915 m above MSL in Kodur and Rajampet taluks. It was very interesting to find evidence of human habitation at such high altitudes. Majority of the sites in the valley floor were found stratified and were exposed due to erosion of the top soil. The artifacts in most cases were mint fresh and consisted mostly of blades, flakes end flakes , cores, scrapers, worked and unworked nodules, chunks and blocks of stone used as raw material. |
