{"title":"New Pleistocene vertebrate assemblages from the Villány Hills (SW Hungary): Siklós and Palkonya","authors":"Krisztina Sebe, Mihály Gasparik, Zoltán Szentesi, Gergely Surányi, Ágnes Novothny, Luca Pandolfi","doi":"10.17111/fragmpalhung.2023.38.75","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.17111/fragmpalhung.2023.38.75","url":null,"abstract":"The Villány Hills in SW Hungary have the richest archive of Pliocene–Quaternary vertebrate faunas in the Pannonian Basin, mostly in karstic cavities. Here we present three new sites that extend the list of Pleistocene vertebrate locations for the area and add information to the evolution history of the region. In the northern part of the Siklós quarry, bone breccia was found coming from fissures in Jurassic or Cretaceous limestones. Its lithofacies and fossil content are similar to those of other well-known Plio-Pleistocene karst infills of the region. As it contained mostly snake vertebrae, its age could not be constrained precisely. In the southern part of the same quarry, two vertical shaft s were discovered, which are unusual in several respects. Th ey formed in a Middle Triassic dolomite succession, a rock type generally not prone to karstification. Th ey might have been created by gravitational deformation of the relatively steep slope, probably at diff erent times. One of them was closed from above and contained fl owstones precipitated during the late Middle Pleistocene, during the late Rissian MIS7 interglacial. The other one was filled from above with loess, rock fragments and remains of large mammals – Equus cf. ferus, Bos primigenius and Coelodonta antiquitatis –, possibly between 140–40 ka, during one of the stadials of the Weichselian or the latest Saalian. The site shows that fossil-bearing cavities could also form in lithologies not favourable for karstification, which then trapped fossils in a similar way karstic cavities do. In contrast with the previous two and with most of the other known vertebrate sites of the Villány Hills, the Palkonya outcrop is not a karst cavity fill but was deposited on the (palaeo)surface. Bison sp., possibly B. schoetensacki remains were found between the Triassic basement and Quaternary slope sediments, and within the latter succession. The Bison bones are probably Middle Pleistocene or late Early Pleistocene, older than ~300 ka. The overlying slope sediments originate from the reworking of various older deposits. Th ey were covered with loess in the Weichselian (~22 ka ago), then again with slope deposits. The abundance of bones in and around the outcrop suggests that this site acted as a fossil trap as well. Bones probably enriched in the sediments during reworking of older deposits. In cold periods, loess deposition decreased (subdued) the relief through infilling the depressions.

Th e herpetofauna is represented by a salamandrid, a true frog, lacertid lizards and colubrid snakes, the latter dominating the vertebrate material. Th e poor mammal material shows that the area was inhabited by insectivores, bats, mice, hamsters and voles. Th e vertebrate remains show no signs of long transport. Th e composition of the total vertebrate fauna suggests a sunny, rocky hillside with scrub and trees in places in the immediate vicinity of the accumulation site. Th e age of the charcoal recovered from the cavity fi ll (41–42 ka) suggests that the fauna is late Pleistocene (MIS 3), this makes the assemblage the fi rst proven MIS 3 fauna in southern Hungary. Th e re-evaluation of the paleokarstrelated fossil material previously reported from the Mecsek revealed a further assemblage probably also of MIS 3 age, the Mélyvölgy Rock shelter. Th e palaeoclimate reconstructed from the palaeoecological analysis of the faunas is warmer than that from coeval sites in northern Hungary, with more closed (forested) vegetation than the northern mammoth steppes. Th is refers to the existence of a north-south thermal gradient in the Carpathian Basin at the time. Th e U-series dating of speleo thems showed that the karst cavity had existed for more than 0.5 Ma. During MIS 3, the cavity stopped to be part of an active karst conduit and it was fi lled up by loess-derived silt.
