Bertrand discovered a quantity of fossil human remains in the quaternary drift at Clichy, near Paris, in contact with bones of the mammoth, rhinoceros, and hippopotamus (Ibid. 11, 12). Very abundant testimony, of vast importance, has been furnished by deposits in caverns. In 1828 and 1829 MM. de Christol and Tournal found in caves at Pondres, Souvignargues, &c.

Outside, on a terrace level with the floor of the grotto, in a continuous deposit, were hearthstones, charred wood, cinders, pottery, flint tools, and arrow-heads, and burned and fractured bones of the cave bear, mammoth, rhinoceros, Irish elk, and cave lion, which had been split open by man...
