Abstract

The research area is the Esenyurt village in the 15 km south of Sivas City and lies in the section of i37c1 of the scale of 1/25.000. The small mammals group extracted from Esenyurt locality has been taken from the clay stone layers. Rodentia fossils aged Pleistocene have been examined taxonomically and the combination of this fauna group has been interpreted biochronologically, paleobiologically and paleoechologically.
