Geography
Country: Lesotho

State: Thaba-Tseka


Coordinate: 29° 46' S, 28° 47' E
Coordinate basis: stated in text

Time interval: Late Pleistocene

Section: 3742

Unit number: 10

Unit order: above to below

Ma: 0.0205

Age basis: radiocarbon (uncalibrated)

Geography comments: "Sehonghong is a large rock-shelter on the banks of the Sehonghong River, close to its confluence with the Senqu (Orange/Gariep) in the Thaba Tseka District of the highlands of Lesotho. The site lies at an elevation of 1800 m above sea level".
Layer MOS dates to 20,500 ± 230 BP based on a single radiocarbon date.

•
Environment
Lithology: sandstone

Taphonomic context: human accumulation,rock shelter

Archaeology: hearths,stone tools

Habitat comments: "Layer MOS (Mottled Orange Sand) consists of a series of brown to orange sandy units comprising small sandstone spalls with extensive black and darker brown mottling. Most of the features present in this layer are small shallow hearths. The lithic assemblage is associated with the MSA/LSA transition".
"While not all of the animal remains in the deposit would have been accumulated by people, the intense degree of fragmentation and burning that characterizes the Sehonghong assemblages strongly suggests that people were responsible for acquiring almost all of the faunal remains".

Methods
Life forms: carnivores,rodents,ungulates,other large mammals,other small mammals,birds,lizards,frogs,fishes

Sampling methods: quarry,screenwash

Sample size: 122 specimens

Sampled by: P. Mitchell

Years: 1992

Sampling comments: "The primary excavation of the site was conducted by P. Mitchell in 1992. All sediment removed from the deposits was dry-sieved through a 1.5 mm mesh".
