“…The U/Th, ESR and TL dates indicate it belongs to MIS 8-7. While palynological results indicate a semi-forest environment with Mediterranean trends, microfaunal patterns still give evidence of a cold and dry climate (Kalai et al, 2001;Moncel et al, 2002). The discrepancy can be due to taphonomic processes.…”

“…The cave, opening to the southeast, is situated on a cliff, close to a plateau. Since 1990, regular excavations have taken place and have identified levels with human occupations associated with numerous artefacts, fauna and some human remains (Moncel et al, 1993;Moncel, 2003;Condemi, 1996, 1997;Moncel et al, 2002).…”

“…This deposit is dated to MIS 8-7 by U/Th, ESR and TL dating processed on bones and teeth (Masaoudi et al, 1997;Moncel et al, 2002;Valladas et al, 2008). Micromammal assemblage testifies from a cold and dry climate (Moncel et al, 2002). The second detritic deposit (level F) has the same sedimentological nature as the level G. It contains human occupations alternating with cave bear occupations.…”

“…Neanderthal subsistence strategies at Payre were based upon the hunting of bovids (Bos primigenius and Hemitragus bonali), cervids (Cervus elaphus and Capreolus capreolus) and Equus ferus, and the scavenging of rhinoceros and elephant (Bouteaux, 2003;Cré gut-Bonnoure, 2008;Daschek, 2002;Julien, 2003;Moncel, 2008;Moncel and Patou-Mathis, 2008;Moncel et al, 1993Moncel et al, , 2002Raynal et al, 2007).…”

Objectives We provide the first comparative description of the Guercy 1 cranium and isolated cranial fragments from Baume Moula‐Guercy and examine their affinities to European Preneanderthals, Neanderthals, and Homo sapiens. Materials and Methods The Moula‐Guercy hominins derive from deposits chronostratigraphically and biostratigraphically dated to the Eemian Interglacial (MIS 5e). For comparisons we compiled a sample of European and Southwest Asian subadult‐adult Middle‐to‐Late Pleistocene hominins (≈MIS 14–MIS 2; N = 184). This sample represents a Preneanderthal–Neanderthal group and a H. sapiens group, both of which were further divided into three time‐successive subgroups defined by associated marine isotope stages (MIS). Metric and morphological observations were made on the original fossils and a virtual reconstruction of Guercy 1. Developmental age and sex and the minimum–maximum number of individuals were assessed. Results Guercy 1 represents the remains of a late stage adolescent (≈15–16.0 years) female. Morphological and metric data combine to associate the total morphological pattern expressed in Guercy 1 with our MIS 7–MIS 5e (“Early Neanderthal”) subgroup. Some features, especially those related to the frontal, suggest linkage to a paleodeme comprising the Moula‐Guercy, Artenac, La Chaise Abri Suard and, possibly, the Biache‐Saint‐Vaast samples. Discussion Remains of MIS 7–MIS 5e Neanderthals are rare and fragmentary, especially those dated to the Last Interglacial. The Baume Moula‐Guercy sample provides new insights into the total morphological pattern expressed in MIS 5e Neanderthals. Further, our results support earlier suggestions that MIS 7–MIS 5e European hominins represent a morphotype that is distinct from both earlier and later members of the Preneanderthal–Neanderthal group.

This article provides an ontogenetically‐based comparative description of the Guercy 3 partial child's maxilla with Rdm2–RM1 and unerupted RI2–RP4 from Baume Moula‐Guercy (MIS 5e) and examines its affinities to European and Middle Eastern Middle‐to‐Late Pleistocene (≈MIS 14–MIS 1) Homo. Description of the Guercy 3 maxilla and dentition (7.0 year ± 0.9 month) is based on observations of original fossils, casts, CT scans, literature descriptions, and virtual reconstructions. Our ontogenetic sample comprises a Preneanderthal—Neanderthal group and a Homo sapiens group. These groups are subdivided into (1) Preneanderthals (≈MIS 14–9), Early Neanderthals (MIS 7‐5e), and Late Neanderthals (MIS 5d‐3), and (2) Middle (MIS 5), Upper (MIS 3–2), and Late Upper Paleolithic (≈MIS 1), and recent H. sapiens. Standard techniques were employed for measurements and developmental age determinations.The Guercy 3 maxilla lacks changes found in Late Neanderthals, including the positioning of the root of the zygomatic process, infraorbital and nasal plates, premaxilla, buccal and labial alveolus, maxillary sinus, nasal cavity, and verticality of anterior tooth implantation. The morphology of the Guercy 3 maxilla more closely approximates that of Sima de los Huesos Preneanderthals, while the dentition more closely approximates the Early–Late Neanderthal condition. Maxillary remains of children and juveniles between MIS 14–MIS 5e are rare, and the available sample is fragmentary and distorted. Although fragmentary, the Guercy 3 maxilla is undistorted and provides new insights into the evolution of the midface in Neanderthals.
