Tephrachronology may be the best tool for resolving questions about the age of layer V at Klissoura. There is a concentration of microtephra fragments between layers IV and V (Dustin White, personal communication, March 2010). Chemical analyses of the glass shards are ongoing as of this writing. 3 kyrs BP. This would in turn suggest that the early dates from layers V and VI probably do relate to first Upper Paleolithic occupations of the cave, and that there is a significant time gap between layers V and IV.

Peresani, 2008). However, evaluation of this or any other scenario must await application of more stringent and accurate dating, including methodologies such as ABOX pretreatment of charcoal and ultra-filtration of bone, as well as tephrachronological analyses, to as many sites as possible. Otherwise, we run the risk of comparing dates with fundamentally dissimilar levels of reliability and precision. SUMMARY Radiocarbon results from the Klissoura Cave 1 sequence have greatly expanded the number of dates available for the early Upper Paleolithic in Greece With the exception of a few anomalously young determinations, the age estimates for the Aurignacian layers (IIIe–g and IV) are very consistent with dates from other classic or late Aurignacian sites in the Balkans.
