This paper examines a newly-enhanced dataset for the distribution of 15 finds locations and their geological context. Using artefact types as proxies for different populations 16 it contrasts the Lower Palaeolithic and Early Middle Palaeolithic records. New methods are devised 17 to mitigate for the clear bias towards handaxes in collection history. Taking account of this bias, the 18 19 results suggest differences in distribution between Lower Palaeolithic and Early Middle Palaeolithic 20 populations, with the latter more heavily concentrated in the lower reaches of large southern and 21 eastern rivers.
