| Abstract: | This article provides an overview of the Upper Pleistocene archaeological records of North Africa, from the western Maghreb to the Nile Valley, spanning the period from 130 thousand-years-ago (or ka) to 12 ka ago. The objectives are to contextualize Homo sapiens occupations and dispersal dynamics. The paper broadly presents the hominin fossil record and discusses the cultural and behavior changes from the Marine Isotopic Stage (MIS) 5 to 2, exploring their correlation with climate and environmental changes. |
