  1. Dans les bons plans gratuits en Écosse, on peut visiter beaucoup de vestiges de la préhistoire, dont ce cercle de pierres aka le Temple Wood Circle Stone, qui a servi sur au moins un millénaire (bien que pour différents usages et on ne les connaît pas tous. Il reste encore 13 pierres sur les 22 ou 23 d'origine, pas mal !

  3. Ancient human DNA found on cave art for the first time.

    DNA from ancient humans has been found on a prehistoric cave painting and on cave walls, demonstrating the potential to one day identify individual artists and resolve the debate over Neanderthals’ artistic abilities

  11. The Field That Keeps Its Secret

    This never fails to make me smile.
    That teardrop island and the stubby little peninsula — where the farmer at Aireyholme cuts around rather than through — mark where the ground has quietly given up. They sit at the outer edge of the old Roseberry Mine ironstone workings.

  13. Stenciled outlines of human hands, Cave of the Hands (Cuevas de las Manos), Río Pinturas, Argentina, between 13,000 and 9,500 years old, natural mineral pigments. This is a UNESCO Cultural Heritage Site. #art #arthistory #prehistoric #caves

    From UNESCO: “The Cueva de las Manos, Río Pinturas, contains an exceptional assemblage of cave art, with many painted rock shelters, including a cave, with magnificent pictographies surrounded by an outstanding landscape, with the river running through a deep canyon, which were executed between 9,300 and 1,300 years ago.

    It takes its name (Cave of the Hands) from the stencilled outlines of human hands in the cave, but there are also many depictions of animals, such as guanacos (Lama guanicoe ), still commonly found in the region, as well as hunting scenes that depict animals and human figures interacting in a dynamic and naturalistic manner. The entrance to the Cueva is screened by a rock wall covered by many hand stencils. Within the rock shelter itself there are five concentrations of rock art, later figures and motifs often superimposed upon those from earlier periods. The paintings were executed with natural mineral pigments - iron oxides (red and purple), kaolin (white), and natrojarosite (yellow), manganese oxide (black) - ground and mixed with some form of binder.”

  20. 💁🏻‍♀️ ICYMI: 🦅🐟 The solitary #shoebill stands nearly 150 cm tall, has a piercing glare, and can stay still like a #statue for hours.

    The #prehistoric-looking shoebill's massive beak gives it an advantage when hunting in muddy #water, while its wingspan is helpful for balance as they walk through unstable, floating vegetation.
