| Abstract: |
English summary on page 12 as follows: In the transition from Pleistocene to Holocene, Vietnamese territory was influenced by transgressions and regressions, chiefly by Flandrian transgression. And though being no great change of climate, the transition from Pleistocene to Holocene in Vietnam clearly presented in the sediments (from ligh yellow sediment to gray yellow one) and faunal remains (from fossilized animal teeth and bones to modernnon -fossilized ones). The cultural development from the Late Paleolithic (Son Vi Culture) to the Early Neolithic (Hoa Binh Culture) was corresponded to the change of sediments and faunal remains. Therefore, the date of the change from Son Vi to Hoa Binh cultures about 20,000 years BP might be considered the demarcating line between Pleistocene and Holocene.
