The stone age of Mount Carmel. Volume I: Excavations at the Wady el-Mughara. Volume II: The fossil remains from the Lavalloiso-Mousterian.

Oxford: Oxford University Press, 19371939.

Garrod carried out her landmark excavations of the el-Wad, el-Tabun and es-Skhul caves on the hills of Mount Carmel, close to Wadi el-Mugharah (Valley of the Caves) between 1929 and 1934. Her monograph on the subject set a new standard for the prehistory of the Levant. Garrod and her team discovered both Neanderthal and early modern human remains, including the Neanderthal female skeleton known as Tabun I. Volume 1 is by Garrod and Bate; Vol. 2 by McCown and Keith.
