The Kalahari region has become a major source of Quaternary palaeoenvironmental data derived primarily from the analysis of geomorphological proxies of environmental change. One suite of data, from palaeolacustrine landforms, has recently provided a new record of major hydrological changes in the last 150ka [Burrough, S. L., Thomas, D. S. G., Bailey, R. M., 2009.

The age of the linear dunes in the southwest Kalahari Desert has not previously been directly established. By applying the optical dating method to samples from the dunefield a number of questions relating to the timing and nature of linear dune development are addressed. The last major period of simple linear dune development occurred 17,000–10,000 years ago, probably from the reworking of earlier...
