At Gran Dolina ~400 ka, hominins butchered 60+ bison using tools made almost exclusively from one type of stone. New research links this rare pattern to some of the earliest evidence of communal hunting. #Paleoanthropology #Atapuerca #MiddlePleistocene https://www.anthropology.net/p/one-kind-of-stone-what-60-butchered
