Abstract
A rich fossil bovid assemblage recovered from Nittur in Karnataka in association with Lower Palaeolithic tools is one of the very few fossil discoveries made from the Krishna basin. The antiquity of man-animal relationship in the area is pushed back to the Late Pleistocene times. The discovery has also a bearing on the palaeoecological conditions obtaining around Nittur during Late Pleistocene period.
