| Popis: | The dating results of twenty‐five Chinese palaeolithic and palaeoanthropological sites are summarized. Palaeomagnetism, Uranium‐series and radiocarbon are the three main dating techniques used in establishing the chronology. The paper discusses the reliability of dating results, correlation between climate and the age distribution of sites, and the possible coexistence of Homo erectus and Homo sapiens. |
