This investigation aims to extend our knowledge of the fossil mammalian
microfauna found in the Australopithecus-bearing breccias of the Transvaal System
at Taung, Sterkfontein and Makapansgat. The available data derived from other
localities such as Kromdraai and Bolt's Farm have been incorporated. The origin of
these fossils, the method of extraction from the breccias, and a brief review of
the geological nature of the deposits under consideration are discussed.
