RT @Jamie_Woodward_: The passages in the cave of Rouffignac are over 8 km long. It is one of the largest painted ice age caves in Europe. The artwork dates to the Magdalenian over 13,000 years ago. This is a detail from the line of woolly rhinos #IceAgeArt https://t.co/ROSLgTSgLq, 14 hours ago
RT @Jamie_Woodward_: These are exquisite. Bison sculpted in relief on reindeer antler about 14,000 years ago from the Grotte d'Enlène and the Grotte d'Isturitz in southwest France. It is very likely these were carved by the same person https://t.co/Va7ry6m8TO 📷 Musée d'archéologie nationale https://t.co/PnksrrwAMU, Sep 24
