{{Short description|Period of geologic time (0.8–0.011 Ma or 800–11 tya) within the Pleistocene and Holocene epochs}}
The '''Lujanian''' age is a [[South American land mammal age]] within the [[Pleistocene]] and [[Holocene]] epochs of the [[Neogene]], from 0.8–0.011 [[Mya (unit)|Ma]] or 800–11 [[tya (unit)|tya]]. It follows the [[Ensenadan]].<ref>[https://paleodb.org/cgi-bin/bridge.pl?action=displayInterval&interval_no=718 Paleo Database: Lujanian]</ref>
The age is usually divided into the middle Pleistocene [[Bonaerian]] stage, which ends at about 130,000 years, and the Lujanian, which lasts from about 130,000 years into the early [[Holocene]].<ref name="Cione">{{Cite journal
