Where: Bermuda (32.4° N, 64.7° W: paleocoordinates 32.4° N, 64.7° W)

• coordinate based on nearby landmark

• outcrop-level geographic resolution

When: Late/Upper Pleistocene (0.1 - 0.0 Ma)

• Probably the end of the last glacial period (Marine Isotope Stage 2). In the complex

•stratigraphy of the Admirals Cave talus cone (Hearty et al. 2004), all Holocene

•deposits occur higher on the slopes of the cone, underlying a Holocene flowstone. Near-surface deposits in the area excavated in 1981 are almost all from the end of

•the last glacial period.

Environment/lithology: cave; siliciclastic sediments

Size class: macrofossils
