The Problem of Final Paleolithic on Kamchatka and Data of the Tephrochronology
In the papers the problem of the end of the Upper Paleolithic in Kamchatka in the light of geochronology is considered. The correlation of new dating of cultural layers, their inventory and ash horizons allows to confirm the validity of distinguishing Holocene Paleolithic by N. N. Dikov. By the author assumption, the strongest eruptions in the early Holocene were a decisive factor of the end of existence and sudden change of the early cultural formations on the peninsula.
