Le Rhinocéros du pléistocène moyen d'Atapuerca (Burgos, Espagne)

Abstract

Le pr6sent travail est une description d6taill6e des restes de Rhinoc6rotid6s trouv6s darts les remplissages karsfiques d'Atapuerca (Burgos, Espagne). Les diff6- rentes fouilles r6alis6es dans le gisement nous OAt fourni 35 pi~ces dont la plupart appartiennent au squelette post-cr~mien, ce qui permet de compl&er nos connaissances sur l'anatomie des rhinoc6ros du P16istoc6ne moyen de l'Espagne. L'6tude comparative du mat6riel avec celui des diff6rents gisements europ6ens permet de l'attribuer ~t Dicerorhinus hemitoechus (FALCONER, 1868). On observe une taille g6n6rale plus petite et des m6tapodes plus graciles pour le rhinoc6ros d'Atapuerca et on peut consid6rer qu'il s'agit d'un stade peu 6volu6 de l'esp~ce. Du point de vue phyl6tique, on ne peut pas ~tablir une 6volutio'n pr6- cise h cause de la raret6 du mat6riel de D. etruscus villafranchien et post-villafranchien espagnol, mais on observe une plus grande similarit6 avec le premier.

This work is a detailed description of the Rhinocerotid remains found in the karst fillings of Atapuerca (Burgos, Spain). 35 different pieces have been extracted from the site. Most of them come from the postcraneal skeleton and increases the knowledge of the anatomy of the Middle Pleistocene rhinoceroses of Spain. The comparisons of that material with those belonging to different european sites let us determine it as Dicerorhinus hemitoechus (FALCONER, 1868). The rhinoceros from Atapuerca has a smaller general size and more gracile metapodes. It represents a low stage of evolution of this species. The scarce remains of D. etruscus in Spain don't allow us to stablish a clear evolutive line but we can observe more similarities with the villafranchian material than with the post-villafranchian one.
