Latest Late Pleistocene. For details about the locality, see Locality information above. The tortoise remains here described come from an archaeological funerary area (Battaglia et al., 2020) placed at a depth of − 15.4 m from the entrance and characterized by disturbance caused by human and / or animal activity that determined a complex stratigraphy. The remains of the pubis, ZCSP US. 2 - Q 4, was AMS-dated revealing an age of 12.5 ± 0.5 kya BP (Supporting Information, Fig. S 3). All the tortoise material is referred to the latest Late Pleistocene assuming that it belongs to the same, extremely rare taxon (large-sized tortoises have never been reported in the several Sicilian Late Pleistocene-Holocene archaeological and paleontological sites so far studied), even if not necessarily to a single specimen (considering the alteration of the stratigraphy, a non-demonstrable but likely option because of non-anatomical overlap of the preserved skeletal elements, as well as their congruent size and common testudinid morphology)		1						15				Italy	Sicilia	Locality	Zubbio di Cozzo San Pietro Cave	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/8930E442307FFF95EEA2FC07E2E9553C	MaterialCitation
