Researchers believe a 15th-century painting, the Melun Diptych, may feature the earliest artistic depiction of an Acheulean handaxe.
This weekend on North02, we’re diving deeper—by making handaxes and actually putting them to the test.

Those bars are dotted just like the pike in the image of the European pike. The Neanderthal image is just distorted weirdly, if you zoom in you can see they are spots

Skull 5 from Dmansis Georgia seeing light for the first time in 1,800,000 years.
The site was excavated from 2000-2006 and has told us innumerable things about the past.
One of the skulls will be prominently featured in this weekend's video!
The video is called "How Old did Ancient Humans Get?"
Yes
My collection grows
Sorry Dmanisi 5 but I had to♥️
One of my favorite paleoart images even if it is not necessarily accurate. I also have never found out who painted it?
BREAKING NEWS, scientists unearthed a mummified Homotherium cub—a saber-toothed cat—preserved in ice on Russia’s Badyarikha River. Radiocarbon dating places the cub at 35,000–37,000 years old, making it the first of its kind found in Asia.

A fossil sea urchin emerging from a flake of grey flint
Sometimes we see fossils in stone artefacts, but rarely are the specimens as perfect as this echinoid, exposed in a flint flake knapped by an early Neanderthal 480,000 years ago. In this case it was left behind with other waste flakes, but was it noticed? did they have a name for them?
