Everyone links boomerangs to Australia. But the oldest known example was discovered in Europe, carved from mammoth ivory nearly 40,000 years ago.

“I can see why all these people without heads wouldn’t be good for a community, and might be a cause for abandonment.”

The other day I was up in a favourite local spot, Goats Crag. These carvings are a little way off the main path and hard to find unless you know where they are. Believed to represent goats, although whether that's because of the name or the name was given because of the carvings, I'm not sure. They could really be any kind of quadruped, but I'm happy to accept the folklore!
Their age is unknown, and they probably aren't truly ancient (I've heard guesses from Iron Age to Roman to Medieval; if they were really prehistoric, they'd be incredibly rare in Britain), but early Bronze Age burials have been found close by, and one of the largest occurrences of cup and ring marks is also not far away, as well as an Iron Age fort.
