Description

This study investigates Sri Lanka's hunter-gatherer archaeology between the Late Pleistocene and the middle Holocene, with lowland wet zone rockshelters as the principle topic of study. It synthesises past and current archaeological research in the island as well as presenting new findings from excavations in the Batadomba-lena rockshelter and the open-air site of Bellan-bandi Palassa.
