Therefore, in the present work, the paleodietary regiment of fossil rhinocerotids from the late Miocene of Axios Valley (Greece) is examined through dental mesowear analysis. Dental mesowear analysis is a method that examines the lifelong dental wear signal based on the classification of the tooth cusps into shape and relief categories. Though too scarce to allow for a robust paleoecological reconstructions, the results presented here point to a variety of paleoenvironments between the different localities of Axios valley.

Furthermore, a multiproxy analysis, including a collaboration with PALEVOPRIM Laboratory for the study of dental microwear, would lead to the acquisition of a greater number of paleoecological data and a better understanding of the ecology of late Miocene rhinoceros and the paleonvironments along Axios Valley in northern Greece.
