Szelim cave

Finally, I will list those Mousterian localities or layers, the faunal lists of which were given in Mottl (1941) and Vertes (1965), that contain mainly previously identified and sometimes mixed material, often without numbers of specimens. These include part of the brown layer of the Kiskevely cave, the layers c and e of the Szelim cave ( c , the hyaena horizon of Gaal was archaeologically sterile) which I reviewed in the collection of the Hungarian Natural History Museum. 

The first of these is layer B(l-2) of the Szelim cave. I re-identified this material, which is deposited in the collection of the Hungarian Natural History Museum (see Vertes, 1965, p. 345). In spite of similarities in the rodent species, because of the different proportions of the grouse species [willow grouse (Lagopus lagopus) ca. 70%, ptarmigan (Z,. mutus) ca. 30%] and the relative frequency of the cave bear Ursus spelaeus), the fauna must be somewhat older than that of Pilisszanto.
