Propylaeum

In 1994, archaeologists in the open-cast lignite mine near Schöningen encountered a scientific sensation: finds and findings pointed to Stone Age hunters who had hunted wild horses here on a lakeside about 300,000 years ago. After the first volume of the series "Forschungen zur Urgeschichte aus dem Tagebau Schöningen" provided a chronological classification of the site, the current volume is about geology.
