18. Tiszaföldvár-Téglagyár (Brlck-Field) In 1970 from the sandy layer of the quarry of the brick field'fragments of a skull and parts of the skeleton were found (VARGA 1973). The finds were in allochthonous position. The finds are under conservation in the Tiszazug Geographical Museum at Tiszaföldvár (VARGA 1973, JÁNOSSY & VÖRÖS 1979). 19. Nagyrév In 1884 a left side fragment of a skull was found in the dead channel of the Tisza (SCHAFARZIK 1884). The find consists of the left praemaxilla, maxilla, zygomaticum and frontale of the skull. The finds' were transported to the Collection of the Hungarian' Geological Institute (Inv.no.: Ob-470), but it does not exist any more. 20, Gyoma In 1893 a fragment of a skull was dredged out from the Körös River. The find has got into the CoHection of the Hungarian Geological Institute (Inv.no.: Ob-987.). The find does not exist any more. 21. Egerszólát In 1878 remains of a mammoth go into the Hungarian National Museum from Egerszólát aming which fragments of lskulls were also existing (MNM.GÁO.J.). The find does not exist either. DATA TO THE CHRONOLOGY OF MAMMOTH IN HUNGARY , The chronological position of Mammuthus primigenius (Blumenbach 1799) in Hungary is relatively well-known (VÖRÖS in press). The "earlier primigenius" and the "later primigenius" (MAYET & ROMAN 1923) conventionally distinguished within the specific evolutional (dental evolutional) trend of the Mammuthus primigenius macrospecies can be also separated quite well in the case of skull finds having molars. The dentition of skulls from Zalaegerszeg, Pécsbányatelep, Hont (?), Ape, Mátraderecske, Tiszaföldvár and Szolnok B. and C. are of "earlier primigenius" type. But, the dentition of skulls from Zalaegerszeg and Pécsbányatelep are more archaic. So, it could not be a mere chance that the' holotypes as well as the paratypes of Mamuthus primigenius hungaricus Kretzoi 1941 adapted even allometrically to the woodland milieu belong to "earlier primigenius" types. Yet we do not know that - in the evolutionary trend of the primigenius macrospecies - at which level of the " earlier primigenius" phase (Middle-Upper Pleistocene) the short legged, low withers-height, woodland M. primigenius hungaricus could have lived in the Carpathian-Basin. The dentition of skulls from Tata, Dunaföldvár, Mende and Hatvan belongs to the "later primigenius" tipe. The skull finds of the " later primigenius" type originate from the SubalyukIstállóskő phase of the Utrecht faunal wave. RADIOMETRIC DATA Unfortunately, radiocarbon age determination has not been made so far on mammoth bones. The absolute chronological data of the " later primigenius" types from another bone, charcoal and wall-rock samples originate from the localities are the following: 1. Tata-Porhanyó bánya (Porhanyó Quarry) Middle Paleolithic Site 1.1. Travertine (No.2.) GRO 2538: 50 000 + 2 500 BP. 1.2. Bone GRN 3023: 33 600 + 1 100 BP. (VRIES & WAARD 1964) 1.3. Travertine originated from the layer below the culture layer. Univ. of Flora Th 230/ U 234 70 000 ± 17 500 BP. (KROLOPP 1977) The mammoth could have lived near the hot springs of Tata in all the three perlodB measured. 2. Mende-Téglagyár (Brlck-Field) 2.1. charcoal Mo 422: 29 800 ± 600 BP. (GEYH et al. 1969) 2.2 1-3430: 27 200 + 1 400 BP. (KROLOPP 1977).
