Neanderthals built weird structures inside a cave in France; we don’t know why. The structures are made from hundreds of broken stalagmites arranged in circular patterns, dating back to at least 176,000 years ago. This is the oldest evidence of human construction ever found, and it shows that Neanderthals had complex cognitive abilities and social organization. #Neanderthals #CaveArt #AncientMystery https://www.iflscience.com/neanderthals-built-weird-structures-inside-this-cave-and-we-dont-know-why-70169?utm_source=flipboard&utm_content=HariTulsidas%2Fmagazine%2FMind+and+Matter

2/2 The cave dweller’s artistry of the bear in this cave is impressive! See photo. Prompts me to wonder if the artist was greatly experienced in cave paintings, and if perhaps there was a ritual of ‘expert’ cave artists using images for story telling, etc. #caveart #paleoart #paleoanthropology

Lions prowled North America for tens of thousands of years before going extinct. Today, no lions lounge in southern Alberta canola fields or chase prey through Yukon grasslands—so what happened? 🦁

10 years ago I went to the exhibition on prehistoric art at the British Museum.
It was called Ice Age Art: Arrival of the Modern Mind. It was spellbinding.
The exhibition had lots of replicas & a few original pieces of ice-age art spanning a period of 40k years ago to near the end of the last ice age around 11k years ago.
Here's some photos from the rather lovely exhibition book that I had to buy.
So this is a #ThrowbackThurday for 10 years ago & well the last 40k.
