| Abstract | The problem of the delimitation of the boundaryin the N.W. India is discussed in the light of therecent developments in the concept of demarcatingthis critical horizon. The suggested position ofthis boundary is largely based upon the biologicalevidence with subsequent climatic indication. Theboundary is not found to be synchronous with theglacial epoch, rather it precedes it. The paper suggests the placing of the boundary at the base of the Pinjor stage in the Upper Siwaliks and towards the bottom of stratigraphical zone 1 (after De Terra and Paterson) of the Lower Karewas. |
