FIRST PARAGRAPH: The migrations and settlements of Pleistocene hominins in China and related issues will be discussed in this paper. Since 1920’s, thousands Palaeolithic localities have been found in China. Those provide more detailed information on the history of human evolution in this region. The earliest Palaeolithic remain found in the Nihewan Basin, north China is at least 1.6 myr old. Some hominid sites in central and south China are even earlier such as Yuanmou in Yunnan, Jianshi in Hubei and so on. Those are the earliest record of the migrations and settlements of Pleistocene Hominins in China as well as East Asia.

首节:自上个世纪20年代以来,已有数以千计的旧石器时代遗址被发现在中国及东亚大陆。这些发现提供了早期人类在这一地区演化发展史的更详细记录。最早的旧石器遗存出现在华北的泥河湾盆地的时代可以早到距今160万年以上。华中与华南一些早期人类遗存的时代甚至更早,如云南元谋,湖北建始等。这些发现是早期人类在中国以及东亚地区迁居的最早记录。
