RT @Jamie_Woodward_: “Cut marks and dents reveal that this skull was thoroughly cleaned of any soft tissues shortly after death. After removing the bones of the face and the base of the skull, it was painstakingly shaped into a cup.” #IceAgeHumans at Gough’s Cave, SW Britain, 14,700 years ago https://t.co/1aiOzHpz4H, Oct 7
