Frank Huffman cs 2012
"A 'Black Hole' in Southeast Asian Homo erectus Biogeography"
PA Soc.meeting Memphis TN

The discovery of >100 H.erectus in E-Java establishes its presence in the central Sunda strato-volcanic archipelago Arc early-Mid-Pleist.
The Arc population probably ranged
- E-ward for 100 km to Flores, given mill.yr-old artefacts there,
- W-ward through Java.
Nonetheless, a "black hole" exists in our bio-geogr.knowledge of He:
no fossils are known for >2000 km N of Java across the forests & seas of SE..Asia (SEA).(of course!--mv)
A potential reason for missing(??--mv) on-shore deposits is suggested by taphonomic patterns in Java. Here the He finds were indivicuals who died in the river drainages of local strato-volcanoes (where pulses of volcano-clastic sediment preserved the bones of the humans & 1000s of animals).
Nearby non-volcanic uplands - beyond the reach of pulses, but also likely inhabited (??--mv) - have produced no He fossils (even where expected to be present in caves). ...

:-) This prefectly confirms that He were predom.littoral shellfish divers,
google "coastal dispersal Pleistocene Homo".
