Fig. 2: Stratigraphic sections within the study area and correlations with sections from nearby Area 10 and 130.

From: New hominin remains and revised context from the earliest Homo erectus locality in East Turkana, Kenya

Note that the KBS Tuff (KBT) occurs in a gravel-silty unit (Section A) occasionally removed by erosion (Section B). In the absence of the tuff, this disconformity marks the boundary between KBS and upper Burgi deposits (Section B). Section locations are provided in the inset medallion map. See Fig. 3 for scale and orientation of inset map, and explanation of data points. Area 10 section is PNG-10.1 from ref. 17. Area 130 sections are sections 16 and 25 from ref. 67.
