(Java, Indonesia) through an integrated analysis of the historical and
recent excavations"

Notice that the Sunda Shelf in the Pleistocene would have been a
dynamic landscape with episodes of being fully marine, partially
flooded, and permanently terrestrial. See fig.1 in: https://www.nature.com/articles/s43247-021-00311-7
"Some paleo-environmental reconstructions suggest lowland rainforests
across Sundaland were extensive during sea level lowstands, while
others hypothesize that the Pleistocene land bridges were much drier
and substantially covered by grasslands or savannah."
