Frantoio (Arda River)

Basic information

Sample name: Frantoio (Arda River)

Reference: F. Bona and B. Sala. 2016. Villafranchian-Galerian mammal faunas transition in South-Western Europe. The case of the late Early Pleistocene mammal fauna of the Frantoio locality, Arda River (Castell Arquato, Piacenza, Northern Italy). Geobios 49:329-347 [ER 3907]

Geography

Country: Italy

State: Emilia Romagna

Coordinate: 44.854424° N, 9.874545° E

Coordinate basis: based on nearby landmark

Formation: Castell'Arquato

Time interval: Early Pleistocene

Ma: 0.99

Age basis: paleomag

Geography comments: The Frantoio locality is situated in the Arda River site near Castell'Arquato, Emilia Romagna

Specific coordinates or maps are not provided therefore given coordinates are based on the nearby town of Castell'Arquato

Magnetostratigraphy has dated the fossiliferous level to the uppermost Jaramillo subchron (0.99 Ma)

•

Environment

Lithology: claystone

Taphonomic context: fluvial deposit

Habitat comments: The mammalian remains were collected from a continental clay layer

The faunal composition indicates a palaeoenvironment consisting of inundated woodlands on an alluvial plain with patches of grassland

It can be inferred that the remains were transported by the river and deposited in a lagoon/marsh where decomposition occured without further transport

Methods

Life forms: carnivores,ungulates

Sampling methods: surface

Sample size: 41 specimens

Sampling comments: 61 remains were collected between 2006-2015 consisting of 7 taxa

At the time of publishing no field excavations were carried out, with remains being collected immediately after flood episodes
