摘要
Although Quaternary study in Uruguay was started in the 1970s, international diffusion of the results has been limited. This contribution is an updating of the continental aeolian and fluvial Cenozoic period, reinterpreted mostly from a geomorphological perspective. We discuss the limitations in the usage of chronostratigraphic generalizations in the Cenozoic based on a lithostratigraphic interpretation. The upper Pleistocene and the Holocene are reinterpreted through available C-14 dates, presenting a comparative preliminary table with the geological formations found in the neighbouring Argentine Provinces of Entre Rios and Corrientes.
