Figure ."».—Quarry Section at Chelles-sur-Marne There is indicated thereon the paleolithic station where Chellean flint implements were first discovered. The uneven line hetween the Chellean and Acheulean heds represents an intervening interval of erosion. The Acheulean-Mousterian succession is regular and unhroken. According to recent correlation : Mousterian industry, beginning in Third Interglacial Time. Acheulean industry, beginning in III Glacial Time (Riss). Chellean (and pre-Chellean) industry, beginning in Second Interglacial Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original Geological Society of America.
