Abstract
This paper describes the Alto de las Picarazas site (Andilla-Chelva, Valencia) which is made up of a group of karst cavities that contains Lower and Middle Pleistocene deposits. In Cavity I, a wide Early Pleistocene sequence under a Middle Pleistocene deposit has been preserved. In Stratum IV, evidence of human presence, such as lithic industry and mammal bones with butchery marks, has been found. Remains of Allophaiomys ruffoi and Soergelia minor in this stratum give the site a Early Pleistocene chronology.
